Ivory hurt again?!?!?!?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Ingram lasted how many games? What's more lame, a hamstring pull or a bruised heel? How do you get a bruised heel? But am I disappointed that Ivory cannot stay healthy? Absolutely. I don't however hold it against him. He's ...

Ingram lasted how many games?

What's more lame, a hamstring pull or a bruised heel? How do you get a bruised heel?

But am I disappointed that Ivory cannot stay healthy? Absolutely. I don't however hold it against him. He's a walk-on for Christ's sake, not a Heisman Trophy winner. Ingram should have come out of the gate at 5 yards per carry. He did not.

THE most crucial one-yard-gain this year and he couldn't get it.

If Ivory ever does get healthy and stay healthy, Ingram will fight for a spot.

If Ivory wasn't so brittle, especially in a zone blocking scheme, I think he could terrorize this league. Physical, fast, and dare I say explosive when fully healthy. There is a silver lining for us... people aren't going to try to overpay for his services when he becomes a free agent b/c he's so injury prone increasing our chances of keeping retaining him.

PT23, Sproles, Ingram, Ivory

Nom nom nom.

I'd rather see them develop Joique Bell. I love the way Ivory runs but he isn't capable of being an NFL rb. He's worse than Bob Sanders.

Given all the time he had off, I don't think this is much of a surprise. Plus, the Saints always keep injury news close to the vest, so the injury itself may not be quite as bad as we think it is. Payton is extremely cautious in letting players come back from injury.

In any case, let's hear it for one of the best backfields in the NFL! We are now the 9th ranked rushing attack and I believe we have the most talented backfield we have ever had in New Orleans.

Lance Moore -

Injury prone.

He's missed his share of games and we're not willing to part with him either.

Yep, but I also think we paid a lot for him, so they'll try to resurrect him from the dead if necessary.

my point is, its always something. great hes out of shape and pulls a hammy. hell come back for a game or two at the most and it will be something else. who cares where he was drafted or not drafted. it sucks that this guy cant last 1 hour on a football field

I'll ask all of you a question, if Ivory was on another team and healthy would you want to face him say 2x a year? I can only speak for me,He!! no, I also don't know why people are on his case, he's still young,powerful, and fast. The hammy I don't think is at all bad, I think Payton is bringing him back for the Giants game. He will be needed more then than now, if he was really needed he would be there in a heartbeat. Payton is a sly fox,we all know that especially about injuries.
