NEW ORLEANS-- Saints running back Mark Ingram is expected to undergo season-ending toe surgery this week, according to reports.

Though that would be a disappointing finish to Ingram's rookie season, it shouldn't affect the Saints much during their playoff run.

The Saints have three healthy tailbacks who have all been playing at a high level down the stretch‹Darren Sproles, Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory. Ivory rushed 19 times for 127 yards and a touchdown Sunday in the blowout victory over Carolina.

The Saints set a franchise record by averaging 4.9 yards per carry this season, which tied them for fourth in the NFL. They've been especially good in the running game during the second half of the season, with their offensive line playing at a high level.

On Sunday, the Saints threw for more than 400 yards and ran for more than 200 in a strong and balanced performance to end the regular season.
