4. This is the week Mark Ingram scores a touchdown

The Saints have to rely heavily on the running game now without Jameis Winston and Michael Thomas for the remainder of the year. That meant the team would not only have to rely on Alvin Kamara, but Mark Ingram as well.

Ingram received a bit of an increased workload against the Falcons. The veteran carried the ball nine times for 43 yards and caught five passes for 21 yards. Compare that to Kamara, who ran 13 times for 50 yards and a touchdown and recorded four receptions for 54 yards.

Given that Ingram is being given the ball nearly as much as Kamara, it is only a matter of time before he gets into the end zone. That could very well come this week, despite the fact that Tennessee’s defense has only given up eight rushing touchdowns this season.
