Blood and guts football! He always seems to give 100%.

Its a pleasure to watch!

Agreed, he is the only "imma run ya a$$ over" RB on the roster right now.

PT definitely disagrees with you.

Don't be surprised if Cadet doesn't turn out to be one of the best RB the Saints have. May be saying bye bye to Ivory

Welcome to Black & Gold Joker. We can guess how you'd vote in our weekly poll: Cadet vs. Ivory

PT has always seemed like a 'pinball' of an RB- maintains momentum after contact through spin moves and agility, but he has never struck me as a pure power RB, ala Ivory. Tusk has one direction he's gonna run and god help whoever is in the way. That being said, it's hard to watch Cadet and not like what you see. We have some cold weather football to play this season- does Ivory stay simply because we need a bruiser to keep Drew from having to air it out in the frozen north?

I think we'll shuffle and see both on the roster this season.
Although of the two backs, I think Ivory has been less north/south and looked a little confused and stutter-stepping in the preseason games I've watched him.

Ingram is supposed to be that guy.

Cadet will win this job , Ivory has been good , but not great. For what our offense does Cadet is better , when Ivory goes in the game , its a run , EEEEVERYONE KNOWS IT . (San Francisco knew it ), Cadet in the backfield can be a running threat or a passing threat , I call him Ingram Sproles ...

Let the defense get tied up with Keeping Colston out of the Endzone , Jimmy off of the Goal Post , Moore from Dancing , Henderson from getting behind the coverage , they'll be in no position to defend a back out. I'm with it.
