Re: Overlooked Ivory a very pleasant surprise for the Saints ... again
Overlooked by the Saints? WTF??? He was a fumble machine at practice and struggled to pick up pass protections. Joe Vitt himself said he'd gotten much better in pass protection, which earned him a shot on the field.
I guess everyone forgets 3 weeks ago when trade rumors were floating around the team stated "Chris Ivory ain't going anywhere". Overlooked my ass. |

Re: Overlooked Ivory a very pleasant surprise for the Saints ... again
For an undrafted free- agent, he's not half bad. Maybe the powers to be can finally give him a fair deal to showcase what he truely is. A true runner that has speed, power, vision and a heart.

Re: Overlooked Ivory a very pleasant surprise for the Saints ... again
Any coach in his right mind would never cut Ivory loose at 100%, in practice, on his defense. You'd be risking injury to the likes of Harper, Jenkins and such.
However, the defensive players are free to strip the football at 100% in practice. Any player close enough to strip a football from Ivory is probably laying on his back at some point during the stripping process. He's COMBATIVE. LOL Alaska |

Re: Overlooked Ivory a very pleasant surprise for the Saints ... again
I'm happy with the way both have been playing. Ivory was clearly the spark that got things going, though.

Re: Overlooked Ivory a very pleasant surprise for the Saints ... again
I think Ivory's "showings" have sparked Ingram a little bit. Ingram seems to now run like a bulldozer. Not big numbers yet from Ingram but I think this is the "push" he needs.
