Both Lacy and Ingram are vastly overrated backs. Neither are great. Gore/Miller is a better combo imo as is Lynch/Forsett and AD/Murray. Ingram wasn't even a 1000 yard back last year while he and Lacy just happen to play for 2 of the easiest offenses to run in because of who their QB's are.

He missed time last year. He was 7th in the NFL in rushing yards per game. It prorated to a 1200 plus yd season if healthy. He was also tied for 3rd in rushing TDs.

They both play with great QBs but that's for teams who are built for passing the ball.

I think the Alabama rb issue is pretty much dead with their combined production. At this point it's just Richardson as a lone bust

I still wouldn't want one. I woudn't want either Lacy or Ingram tbh. Ingram only averaged 4.3 ypc with Brees at QB. No thanks.

Still need a good run blocking line regardless who your QB is. How did Andrew Luck and his RB's do? How about Peyton Manning's RB's?

Do you guys remember when we were excited about Gio Bernard?

I still like Gio as a playmaker, but he was overdrafted if the plan was to use him strictly as a change of pace back. Le'Veon Bell was the next RB off the board in that draft.

I'm really happy with Hil and Bernard in a RB group, It can be a strength of the team

Oh yeah..... I'm happy with our backs, mostly because I think Hill is terrific. Gio is a good playmaker, but either he was hurt last year or teams really caught on to our game plan with him by the middle of the year.

Or we kept running him directly up the middle when we clearly shouldn't. That sadly happened a lot.

True..... Though I think the number of teams that were fooled by the obvious swing pass to Gio started to dwindle as well.

He is more like a cow bell. Makes a bunch of noise but is worthless otherwise.
Richardson has been lousy with two teams. Amazing that he was selected in the first round by Cleveland.

TR was a BEAST in college. He looked like a solid pick.
