    Mark Ingram or Reggie Bush?

    Who would you choose? Should the Saints stick with Reggie or go to Mark Ingram path?

    Mark Ingram.. Reggie Bush is a novelty, a great punt returner and a 3rd and long back... he isn't a ball control punisher

    What do you mean which? I don't think this is an either/or question....

    I want them both on my team if i am the Saints because they are such different backs. Bush is someone that the defense still has to think about where he is on the field...he can catch the ball, run the ball, and make things happen at the blink of an eye.

    Ingram is a traditional back...he is going to run between the tackles and get you those hard yards.....

    Both, Ingram as your main man though, let him wear the D down then Bush can come in and use his speed more effectively, the Saints O is gonna be a nightmare for the opposition if Ingram can step up to the NFL level.

    I think the Saints will cut Reggie or ask him to take a paycut.. They are idiots if they will pay Reggie $11.8 million this season..

    bush is injury prone. I would use him in passing situations and kick returns. Other than that he is not durable enough.

    Ingram all day long. Bush was a novelty back from the start and there is no way he deserves $11.8M this season. Get rid of him and jump on the horse's back, he can carry a running game.

    As a longtime USC season ticket holder..............I witnessed Bush do amazing things on the football field. He was the most dynamic COLLEGE football player I've ever seen. But, Reggie's skill set just didn't translate to the pro's like most thought it would ("the next Gale Sayers").

    No way the Saints can keep him at 11.8 million. Pay cut or get cut.

    Ingram was built to be an NFL bruiser back and already ran like one in college. Great pick up by the Saints. Reggie Bush will turn into nothing more than a slot receiver and a dump off option out of the backfield on select third down and short plays.

    ingram gives much more of a pure running threat but can also catch the ball enough to keep the d honest... plus he is younger

    Cut Reggie.

    Him being on your team doesnt add or subtract from you chances of winning.

    Guess you know more about winning/losing in the NFL than Super Bowl winning coach Sean Payton.

    Bush is a malcontent. He's was overrated in college. If Ingram disappoints, at least they're taking a chance. I would choose Ingram and get rid of Bush

    There was never any intent to pay Bush 11.8m when the deal was signed. it was simply a funny money year added in to disperse the prorated signing bonus. Even with out Ingram the Saints were cutting or renegotiation the deal.

    Running backs just aren't worth that much money anymore since every team splits time and lots of backs don't last that long. I'd go with Ingram.
