I don't think that there is an other player in the NFL that matches Kamara's balance. He and Pierre Thomas are very similar.

To me he sort of “glides” while he’s running. He just always looks smooth and in control.

Don’t get me wrong; I’m not sold he’s the guy to lead us back to the SB. Those stats I posted were put up against “subpar” teams and his record is only 5-3 during that span (but has won 5 out of last 6). Lots of work still to do and he could fall on his face in the next month’s worth of games.

But many on the forum have maintained that he sucks (or some form of that opinion). I can’t agree that his performance (especially with the Saints so far) warrant that opinion.

The part that a few of you don’t get, is that “He sucks” means, we stay mediocre enough to keep him in the driver’s seat, and Dennis Allen at the helm.

But he doesn't suck. Not by your definition and not by the generic definition. I'd argue that he's better than a majority of the QB's in the NFL right now and better than a handful of Superbowl winners as well. I'd certainly pick Carr over Dilfer and Brad Johnson.

See? “He doesn’t suck” and everything you wrote after that, means - we stay mediocre enough to keep him in the driver’s seat just long enough to keep us mediocre before developing fresher talent and having to do a soft-rebuild around whoever that might be. And it goes on and on…

Some of y’all just don’t get the frustration of not rebuilding from the top down, especially in key positions, and it makes those who do get it, seem like “Haters”, or fans that WANT our team to suck badly enough to be properly rebuilt. THAT is part of what makes him suck.

I'm glad the Saints QB doesn't wear fingernail polish like the Bears QB.

Ice, to be honest, Carr could come out sprinkled in gold glitter if he wanted to! As long as he can keep being a top 10 QB like this past weekend, I'm good with it and will defend his right to wear it to my grave! :bng:

Ok, this made me laugh.

Injuries were ugly yesterday and I hope that Marshon can play a full season. If not, this defensive backfield is the best the Saints have ever had and they should still be very good.
The offensive line played well yesterday. I hope the LG's toe injury isn't terrible. Penning played well.

For a split second, I thought you were going to say "fingernail polish like me" . :awe: :D
