Should the New Orleans Saints Shop Mark Ingram on the Trade Market?

The Case for Keeping Ingram

Last season, the Saints had what may have been the scariest offense in all of football. Complemented by a dynamic aerial attack led by future Hall of Famer Drew Brees and rising superstar Michael Thomas. Not to mention contributions from Kamara out of the backfield, the one-two punch of Kamara and Ingram was the most potent tandem in the NFL, and one of the strongest tandems of all time.

Had it not been for a ridiculously poorly-timed tackle attempt, the Saints would’ve had their ticket punched to the NFC Championship, if not more.

The ageless motto “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” keeps coming to mind with this situation.

The former Heisman winner acts as the goal-line workhorse and short-yardage mogul while Kamara is the dynamic, shifty, speedy threat who can break ankles of defenders as a route-running receiver or the ball carrier from the backfield. The point is that both keep defensive coordinators up the night before the game.

That tandem is frightening, and it gives Drew Brees, who now holds the NFL record for passing yardage, more than enough time to throw. Now that, folks, is nightmarish.

Why would anyone break up a system that is working so, so well?
