Ladell Betts, Chris Ivory carry load for New Orleans Saints
But with Thomas and Bush sidelined with injuries, the Saints turned to a couple of lesser-known understudies who helped the Saints to their best rushing game of the season on their way to a 16-14 win against the Carolina Panthers at the Superdome on Sunday.
Ladell Betts and Chris Ivory ignited a sputtering Saints' offense, combining to rush for 114 of the Saints' 121 rushing yards, setting the tone for a smash-mouth victory. "They played hard," Saints Coach Sean Payton said. "Both are relatively new to our program, and they were a big part of the win." With the Saints' offense able to score just one touchdown, Bell and Ivory ran with power and toughness, meanwhile gaining the respect of their Ladell Betts, Chris Ivory carry load for New Orleans Saints | NOLA.com |

I Think Betts Has The Potential Of Getting A Key Role In Our Offense If He Keeps This Up

I think Ivory played good. The only thing is he needs to protect the ball. Betts played good too and made yards when we needed them. They will get better and feel good about our backs esp when PT and RB gets back in the lineup!!
