Mystery Disease Kills Thousands
Gay Marriage Vote Puts Heat On Christie
You know that spot on the Saints depth chart where it lists the third-string running back?
New Orleans needs to leave that blank. It's bad news, kiss of death, playing with fire, just ugly. Skip over it. Make believe the fourth-string guy is really the third-string guy.
Chris Ivory, the undrafted free agent, who was making room for himself in the Saints' backfield, suffered a knee injury Thursday night in the Saints' final preseason game.
He follows Lynell Hamilton and P.J. Hill to the sidelines. Hill is gone for good with a triceps injury. Hamilton hurt a knee.
Ivory slid into the spot behind Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush and now he is hurt.
Next?
It is probably Ladell Betts, the former Redskin. He had 38 yards on seven carries Thursday night. Betts also caught four passes for 22 yards.
The other contender, Deshawn Wynn, had 31 yards on seven carries. Betts is 31; Wynn is 26 years old and faster.
We'll see who it is. They just can't call themselves the "third-string" back.
The other bad news: Jonathan Casillas, a starting linebacker, has a sprained foot.
It's not certain what was settled as far as the Saints' backup plan at quarterback.
Patrick Ramsey got a lot of work and completed 11 of 16 passes for 98 yards. Chase Daniel was 10 of 18 for 137 yards with a TD and INT.
I think the Saints could keep three quarterbacks. They need a vet like Ramsey, but they don't dare let Daniel out on the market.
