Mark Ingram was held to 40 yards on 13 carries against the Packers in the season opener. Ingram started both halves, showing impressive power, leg drive, and agility between the tackles. Coach Sean Payton telegraphed a couple of short-yardage failures, including a one-yard attempt at the goal-line that would have tied the game with no time left on the clock. Ingram's carries will increase when the Saints play with the lead, which will usually be the case. Going forward, picture a more talented BenJarvus Green-Ellis while you buy low.
