Ingram seemed to have worn us down by the fourth quarter. When they were in the redzone he seemed to be unstoppable.

Ingram absolutely did not wear us down and I don't know what you watched to come up with that. He had 9 carries all day and that includes 3 consecutive for 4 yards after the final turnover on downs. That means he had 6 carries in the first 59 minutes. It is ridiculous to say he wore us down.
On the Saints 3 TD drives in the 4th quarter they passed 17 times and ran twice. That is not being worn down by Mark Ingram. That is being carved up by Drew Brees.
Looking at those numbers the worst thing I see is that we put no pressure on them when they passed on 17 out of 19 downs where we knew they were going to pass it. That is almost as terrible as lining up 9 yards off the ball.
