Cards to pursue Ivory?

I guess it's kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy, I mean the deal with his last name and his tendency to get injured, since ivory is actually a fairly brittle material even though it looks strong and hard on the outside.

I believe in Ingram. I think he can shoulder the load and make a difference. I'd take him over Ivory right now. I like Ivory but Ingram is the future IMO.

Say it ain't so!
Give me Ivory, ya'll can have Inchgram.
Ivory makes a decision, an NFL decision, and gets what he can.
Ingram looks like he's got his eyes closed, running up the backs of blockers.
We need at least one punisher. Somebody that makes DB's lose a step.
We will miss Ivory if he slips away.

You can't deny that Ingram got better as the season went on though, and ironically enough all of our RB's couldnt gain yardage until the week that Kromer went back to O line coach and vitt took over
No one can say that Ingram isn't a hard runner, plus he's more durable than ivory

RB Ingram, 23-yd, run - NFL Videos

RB Ingram, 16-yd, run - NFL Videos

RB Ingram, 26-yd, run - NFL Videos

In my Buddy Ryan's voice.. "can't help the club in the hot tub". Ivory is just a bit too injury prone for my taste. Love the desire, but his body doesn't seem to hold up well.

1. They arent all his highlights just the ones i thought were impressive
2. How is ingram not getting hit? You obviously need to watch closer
3. Ivory pulls a hamstring every game, getting hit does not pull your hamstring, accept it hes injury prone

Sigh. If only the season were eight games long with a three week break between game four and game five....

Ingram would do better if the same play wasn't called everytime he gets on the field. He needs to get given the chance to catch out the backfield and run different routes than straight up the middle.Whenever he comes on,teams move up and stack the box.A bit of variation would stop that.I do think he needs more carries to get himself into the game.I still have faith in him but would trade him got a second round pick.
