Just thought it might be nice to keep an ongoing watch of these two running backs through the season.
ETA: I added in the other Saints running backs as well.

Chris Ivory:
157 carries 705 yards 4.5 ypc 3 TDs (Long run 69 yards)



Mark Ingram:
62 carries 283 yards 4.6 ypc 1 TDs (Long run 34 yards)

Pierre Thomas
136 carries 521 yards 3.8 ypc 1 TDs (Long run 18 yards)

Darren Sproles
49 carries 219 yards 4.5 ypc 2 TD (Long run 38 yards)

Khiry Robinson
36 carries 156 yards 4.3 ypc 1 TDs (Long run 21 yards)

Jed Collins
10 carries 34 yards 3.4 ypc 1 TD (Long run 12 yards)




ETA: updated 12/16/13.

Part of me says "but the line didn't help Ingram at all yesterday" and then the other part says "he had an open hole and got destroyed by the Atlanta safety after about a 3 yard gain that should have been 10".

Still equal in fantasy value.

And the difference is the Jets don't have a good QB or WRs.

Ingram would be really good if it didn't take him 35 steps to get to the line.

Updated with Ivory and all Saints running backs for week 3. As you should know, Ingram did not play this past week vs the Cardinals and Robinson got late 4th quarter carries the past week in his first action as a Saint.

Updated for week 5.

Ivory had a pretty good game and his ypc went up.

PT, Sproles and Robinson went down, but not by very much.

Let's give a hand to Robinson.

He had 7 carries for 53 yards (7.6 ypc) and 1 touchdown. His first NFL touchdown!


Everyones (including Ivory) YPC went up this week except for Sproles who went down by .1 yard.

Everyone's ypc went up this weekend except for Ingram. But he still has the highest ypc.

Each of those guys had what I call a freak game. Take out that game for each player, and then see where they stand.

That leaves the following:
Ivory - 89 carries, 328 yards, 3.7 ypc 1 TD
Thomas - 90 carries, 326 yards, 3.6 ypc 0 TD
Sproles - 34 carries, 118 yards, 3.5 ypc, 1 TD
Robinson - 26 carries, 118 yards, 3.6 ypc, 0 TD

Ingram - 27 carries for 75 yards, 2.8 ypc, O TD

So Ingram outside of the inflated stats from the Dallas game is worse than all the others with each players best game taken out.
