Yup this was an easy decision with Bell's performance. IMO, Bell has looked better than any other RB on the roster at this point. He has a great combination of speed, power, and vision.

Good luck to Chris. I like that bruising style, but it's a hard-sell in the NFL.

I agree Bell has been the best RB so far...i hope he stays healthy as well..catches good out of the backfield and picks up blocks good..good player all the way around..I know Eddie George was raving about him last night..

I agree Bell looks good, but he needs to hold on to the damn ball!

strato · 09-02-2011, 10:25 PM

I think he did ..wasn't it Cobbs who fumbled?

73Saint · 09-02-2011, 10:29 PM

As I wrote that I second-guessed myself... So, not really sure now. Either way, still needs to hold on to the damn ball!

Bell is fine....It's Ivory that needs to hold on to the football...NEXT year! His fumble vs. the Falcons, was a big momentum changer.

Just read they released Ivory from IR and cut him.

He's been cut and can sign anywhere.

More from @caplannfl: Waived RB Chris Ivory from IR w: injury settlement.

He can now go wherever he wants. But could return to N.O. too.

RT @SaintBrian9: @LHolderCBS wait so that means ivory is gone?

LHolderCBS Larry Holder - Yes.

I'm sorry to see an enthusiastic runner like ivory get released. My bet is that no one will pick him up until after week 1, which means no garranteed contract. I hope he plays for buffalo or Kansas city. Someone we don't face.

I'm hearing this might be bad info on Chris Ivory. Think he's actually headed for PUP list. Stay tuned. #Saints.

I give up.
