However...

Bush - Always injured
Thomas - May be injury prone
Ivory - Injured in every game he's played in

Jones - Spot duty
Betts - Spot duty

I think they might be awfully afraid to start cutting any RB's right now given the injury status of our top 3.

There is a difference between injured and hurt... I suspect 90% of the team hurts after every play....

Golly, that would make sense. Payton always eases Bush back in slowly when he comes back from injury.

Exactly.
Yes ivory still has alot to learn in terms of vision when he runs straight into the back of the line, but everyones gotta admit that the guy is a physical runner and I've been impressed with what he's done, he seems to have that mentality "never die easy"
He doesn't go down easily and the kid is a steal, he's got tons to learn but he is going to be real good, I like what we have with him.
