I responded about Ivory in kind. I like Ivory, I like him a lot. But I'm not dumb enough to think he didn't have any weaknesses coming into this season. Our coach even said so.

Anyone with any football knowledge knows as the O-line goes, so do the RBs. Did you notice how much better the O-line started playing when Kromer went back to his O-line coaching position?

The Ingram haters refuse to see that. Just because Ivory is our best pure runner doesn't mean Ingram sucks. I just have to keep remembering there are a lot of young uninformed posters around here that just want to vent. So its all good I guess.

Was PT hurt? He had 1 carry for 0 yards. Why didn't he see the ball more?
No friend, that is not unfair criticism. Remember last year when we ran the ball so well? Ingram was putrid. And our backs weren't playing awful early in the year, we were just constantly way behind. Like today. Now I said myself in another post that the line woke up, and that helped. But Thomas was playing ok when he WAS getting the ball, whereas Ingram wasn't. I agree that Ingram has been playing better, but all this stuff about eating crow that I keep hearing some people say, is BS. He was awful until very recently, and still isn't lighting it up. And who said Ivory had no weakness? They all have weaknesses. But Ivory, Thomas and Sproles have simply outplayed Ingram the majority of the time. I'll start giving Ingram credit when he shows more consistency.

As for Harper, his play is indefensible. He is almost always getting burned. Safeties are called safeties for a reason. they are supposed to keep everything in front of them. But both our safeties always seem to be behind.

As for PT today? Beats me. I have no idea what happened to him.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
