McBain 13 Posted November 10, 2015 Looked great beginning of the year, but looks like he's hit the wall. Averaging 1.6 yards a carry for the last three games. Is he hiding an injury? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted November 10, 2015 Hs a mystery because hes still scoring and putting up RB1 stats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted November 10, 2015 Probably more injured than letting on. Its stupid really. Either him playing through it or the coaches pushing him to play serves no benefit at a y/c clip that anyone on this board could achieve (assuming it is because of injury).

thePRO 78 Posted November 10, 2015 This is Ivory folks, nothing to see here. Will look amazing and fade down the stretch. He becomes extremely TD reliant. Good thing he's on an offense that can really move the ball. Doesn't help that Mongold hasn't played and Colon is injured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyclone24 1,814 Posted November 10, 2015 His line looks awful. I can't decide whether to trade him or not....guy gets like 45 yards, but then gets two touchdowns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McBain 13 Posted November 10, 2015 At 1.5 yards a carry and a guarantee 15 carries, he has a nice floor of 2 points a game. Plus touchdown upside! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeshushu 51 Posted November 10, 2015 Yea he rides my bench till further notice. If it weren't for those two one yard TDs this week, two points ain't doing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted November 10, 2015 I would not let him sit on the bench , shop him and see what his value is . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Neil 63 Posted November 11, 2015 Anyone think it's time to stash Bilal next week during bye and he's healthy again? I think if he's healthy he's the key to own if ivory goes down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Neil 63 Posted November 11, 2015 Jets already had their bye Oh yeah you're right. Was thinking they had bye bc they were saying Fitz was gonna have hand sx but it's bc they have 10 days off due to Thurs Night Game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purplengold47 27 Posted November 11, 2015 Someone offered ODB and jhill for my ivory, I only got beast mode, Jennings and r Matthews, should I accept? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Gannicus 12 Posted November 11, 2015 Someone offered ODB and jhill for my ivory, I only got beast mode, Jennings and r Matthews, should I accept? Step 1 - Put ski mask on.. Step 2 - Accept deal before his drugs wear off... Step 3 - Enjoy odb and jhill making your team better.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 591 Posted November 11, 2015 Step 1 - Put ski mask on.. Step 2 - Accept deal before his drugs wear off... Step 3 - Enjoy odb and jhill making your team better.... I have to agree. problem with Ivory.... he runs hard, beats up opposing defenses, but also beats himself up. He will miss time eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H-man 12 Posted November 11, 2015 Yes he's banged up and not right, and his line isn't helping, but I take solace in the fact that the Jags allow the fewest YPC to running backs at 3.2 ypc. It was 3.5 ypc before he faced them. I'm starting him over Yeldon this week, the BUF defense is one of the least effective at hitting RBs at or near the line of scrimmage which is key for me having confidence in him. We'll see what happens because Ivory and the Jets seem to be one of the best at getting hit at the LOS, something has to give. Definitely monitor him, but most guys have some major knock on them at this point in the season, you just know the most about your own players and all of their flaws.

I was mislead into thinking Jaguars were soft against run based previous seasons. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H-man 12 Posted November 12, 2015 Yeah, it's interesting. Stewart, Gore, and Foster each averaged under 3.2 YPC against Jacksonville, and Lamar Miller averaged 1.4 ypc. Conventional wisdom is they're a good matchup. Their fantasy points to RBs have come mostly thanks to seven 1yd TD runs; 3 from Blount, 2 from Martin, and 2 from Ivory. That is pretty odd. That sorta thing, a RB simply getting a 1 yard carry, can go weeks without happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
