I think this would be the absolute correct call. Nobody looks at the Saints as a running team, everyone looks at them as a pass 1st team because of Brees. Look at how GOOD the running game is taking off for us now!
Lets plow thru the playoffs all the way to Indy as Whodat!656 says!
Besisdes, its a fact that if we have a 100+yd rushing game, we win the game!

TWO DAT BABY!!!

To me Ivory runs better than Ingram the guy just it's the hole and his legs just keep moving.

Say were in Green Bay, there is 6 minutes left on the clock,we at our 20 yard line, score is 21-21, do you run the ball or pass it. Me, I run, with 4 and I repeat 4 healthy horses pulling the wagon, do I pass, no. Long drive, kills the clock. We win. But on the other hand I don't think we lose to the Packers if we do get a chance to play them, I think someone else will beat them before we get to them. I want a shot at them so bad, unfinished buisness. And Ivory is a bull.

Sit Ingram for now. Ivory is performing better.

TE's and RB's,
I don't see what is so complicated...
Nice changes ups, and back ups with the injuries we have had at the position in past years. Its a good plan, good insurance.

You're hopeless.

4 RB's means you have to make a player at another position inactive and that may not be feasible...

In San Fran with their putrid passing game maybe.... In Lambeaux I think one will have to sit..

The RB situation is obviously a good situation. Right now I would think you sit the Rook and let Ivory pound that Packer interior line.... The question may come down to who is the better blocking back to keep the pressure off of Drew

As another poster said, SP will never go into a playoff game undermanned at RB again.....

No question you enter the second season with 4 active. I don't think that equates to us 'pounding' the ball - not with Sean and Drew doing what they do - unless the situation/environment requires it.

But jeesh with those four guys, we can really punish a defense if we get up by a couple scores.
