Chris Ivory making the RB situation very complicated
 

Man he looks pretty amazing out there, I'm not sure what they are going to do when Ingram is healthy.

I think we'll make adjustments. I don't think Payton and company will go into the playoffs with even a question at runningback ever again!

Last year was a train-wreck. Lesson learned.

Ivory gets more comfortable every week, it is going to be very complicated when Ingram come back, I hope we have a two RB set and hand it off to one of them

I love how Ivory punishes his opponents during his runs. While putting him on the inactive list is unfair once Ingram gets back, I really hope we can keep him this off season even though he's replaceable.

What I like most is that he's stayed healthy. He had that 1 set-back after his 1st game, but has remained relatively durable.

And oh yeah, he hasn't fumbled.

Do you guys think we go into the playoffs with 4 RBs active?

I believe that when the Saints play outside @ Frisco and perhaps Green Bay, the Saints will have all 4 active and will pound the hell out of the ball all the way to Indianapolis!!

I have a good feeling that SP has several 4 RB set ups ready for the playoffs

Unless getting them more reps to develop a rhythm becomes an issue; we absolutely geaux four (4) running backs - what happened last year in Seattle costs us a run to repeat...

I do. I'm gonna be looking for something new from SP in the playoffs with 4Rb's.

Ding Ding Ding... We have a winner! :-)

I think this would be the absolute correct call. Nobody looks at the Saints as a running team, everyone looks at them as a pass 1st team because of Brees. Look at how GOOD the running game is taking off for us now!
Lets plow thru the playoffs all the way to Indy as Whodat!656 says!
Besisdes, its a fact that if we have a 100+yd rushing game, we win the game!



TWO DAT BABY!!!

To me Ivory runs better than Ingram the guy just it's the hole and his legs just keep moving.

Say were in Green Bay, there is 6 minutes left on the clock,we at our 20 yard line, score is 21-21, do you run the ball or pass it. Me, I run, with 4 and I repeat 4 healthy horses pulling the wagon, do I pass, no. Long drive, kills the clock. We win. But on the other hand I don't think we lose to the Packers if we do get a chance to play them, I think someone else will beat them before we get to them. I want a shot at them so bad, unfinished buisness. And Ivory is a bull.

Sit Ingram for now. Ivory is performing better.

TE's and RB's,
I don't see what is so complicated...
Nice changes ups, and back ups with the injuries we have had at the position in past years. Its a good plan, good insurance.

You're hopeless. :rolleyes:

4 RB's means you have to make a player at another position inactive and that may not be feasible...

In San Fran with their putrid passing game maybe.... In Lambeaux I think one will have to sit..

The RB situation is obviously a good situation. Right now I would think you sit the Rook and let Ivory pound that Packer interior line.... The question may come down to who is the better blocking back to keep the pressure off of Drew

As another poster said, SP will never go into a playoff game undermanned at RB again.....

No question you enter the second season with 4 active. I don't think that equates to us 'pounding' the ball - not with Sean and Drew doing what they do - unless the situation/environment requires it.

But jeesh with those four guys, we can really punish a defense if we get up by a couple scores.
