Saints have decision to make with four healthy RBs.

I read a comment somewhere that Pierre Thomas should be taken out of rotation.

wait...WHAT!! Has this person been watching the games that Thomas plays in? Last year I saw Pierre go down by one defenders tackle,but this year it takes 2-3 dfenders to take him down! Hes playing intellegent and strong this year. I say split Igram and Ivory"s carries and stick with Sproles and Thomas.
Maybe some disagree, but thats how I see it.

I haven't read that anywhere but I don't doubt it. There are idiots everywhere.

Pierre Thomas is the most underrated RB in the NFL in my eyes, and the best RB we have on our roster.

Talk about good grouping our top 3 RBs are ranked #35 and tied for #36.
Sproles is averaging 6.8 yds per carry with 348 total yds
Ingram is avg 3.7 per carry with 340 total yds
Thomas is avg 4.7 per carry with 340 total yds

Thomas is avg 4.7 per carry this season exactly his career avg over 483 rushing attempts. Sounds like he is consistent.
