A statistical look at Saints running backs Chris Ivory and Mark Ingram to try and determine once and for all which one is actually better.

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Yep, nothing like looking at stats to determine something once and for all. How about considering... He fumbled all thru training camp and continues to fumble during practice. Ivory has not run behind this O-line yet. Ivory is not good ...

Yep, nothing like looking at stats to determine something once and for all.
How about considering...

He fumbled all thru training camp and continues to fumble during practice.

Ivory has not run behind this O-line yet.
Ivory is not good in pass protection.
Ivory is fragile.
Ivory has not run in a game coached by these guys yet.


Here's the stat that should tell you once and for all who the better running back is...

2012 carries...
Ingram - 37 carries
Ivory - ZERO

And I'm a huge Chris Ivory fan. I wouldn't mind playing Ivory just to shake things up a bit, but this article is poorly supported.
UK_WhoDat and Utah_Saint like this.

I agree. I'd like to see them use Ivory for the power run game more but this article is pretty one sided.

Ingram 1 fumble in 159 carries
Ivory has a fumble for every 54 carries (4 fumbles, 216 carries)
