John DeShazier: Saints top performers vs. Buccaneers

OFFENSE: Thirteen days ago the New Orleans Saints ran for 46 yards on 16 carries in their 16-11, road loss to Tampa Bay. Mark Ingram topped those numbers by himself in Saturday’s 31-24 victory, running for 90 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries, and leading a rushing attack that totaled 123 yards on 31 carries. Of course, kudos belong to the offensive line (Ingram was untouched on his second touchdown, a 14-yarder in the third quarter). The line has been nothing short of amazing in how that unit has held together and performed this season while left tackle Terron Armstead shuttled in and out of the lineup due to injury.
