Whose more likely to have a sophomore slump.

Kamara or Lattimore.

I think it’s going to be Kamara. It will be hard to come close to this years production. I think he’s going to think teams haven’t had all offseason to figure out how to stop him.
I also think he will realize his body is an investment in his future and shy away from some of those leaps and other plays that can increase the chance of injury.

I think Lattimore will be solid but his play dropped off after the second Atlanta game. Don’t know if his ankle was lingering or what but he definitely looked to have lost a step.

Dude.... What kind of thread is this? Nobody on our team will have s sophomore slump. They better not.

Lattimore set the bar pretty darn high not allowing a single TD. If he even gives up one next season it could be considered a sophomore slump.

HoF type players don't have slumps of any significance. Both of these players are on that track.

Teams will focus more on Kamara. That doesn't mean he's having a slump.

This thread has made Saintfan angry...

QB's have a sophomore slump, never heard of CB's or RB's having one. If they do it usually means they weren't that good in the first place. I don't see either of these two "slumping".

If Kamara stays healthy, he has a legitimate shot at putting up Marshall Faulk type numbers.

If that isn't "lock down" at the position, I'm not sure what is.

He's only going to get better

. .. scary.

I don't see anyone of our draft picks having a sophomore slump. Our coaches will stay on them and they all seem to have already taken this off season seriously. If anything they will play better with another year under their belt in a pro system understanding concepts and getting in NFL shape.
