Just trying to prepare you for it now lol

Where did you come up with that? One of the things that stands out about Murray is his durability. Do you think before you type?

I really have more faith in Washington than Murray. I also don’t think we really need another back who excels in the passing game to have success. We have more receiving threats than we have in a long time. We need a back that can control the clock on the ground. I don’t want to be forced to use Kamara for that. If he can get involved in the passing game then great. I’m just not sold. Maybe a bad taste in my mouth from past FA signings

Recent record bringing in Vet RB's is not good. Sproles and Hightower were exceptions. A lot of red flags. Age, health, unknown true catch ability. Someone said he is wearing a back brace. Not sure if true. Guess we will find out soon what we have.

The biggest red flag seems to be the one that is most difficult to measure...what lies between the ears. Many of the misfires we've had at RB and receiver are because they just couldn't understand the system. This will keep you on the sideline, no matter how talented you are.

I agree. I understand hedging your bets.... But, damn, we are bringing in RBs left and right.

That is a little worrisome.

We just need Murray to do what CJ Anderson did for the Rams last year. As the season wears on and defenses wear down and get banged up get him more carries and let him take some pressure off Kamara. If Murray has 2.4 yards per carry through the first 6 games we might need to be patient is what I'm saying.

For a newly acquired FA running back who has yet to play in one meaningful game for the Black and Gold, I don't think I've ever seen so much malevolence & venom.

Maybe Saints coaches should come to their senses and cut him now

Consider the source.

Latavius Murray is like the fifth option in our offense. Stack the box with everything you've got.

Burn, you learn!

right now I wish they paid the 1 million extra for Ingram however I think Kamara can take over the payload
