Our running back situation
 

It is obvious to me that Murray needs to have more carries when Kamara plays. I think over the first portion of the season we've done a poor job at getting Murray touches. He single-handedly opened up the passing game today. Kamara is getting way too much of the RB load, and I actually think it's hurting him some through wear and tear.

Murray ready to shine, let karmara rest and heal we got this.

Murray and Kamara should prove out to be a good combination.

Re: Our running back situation
 

Let Kamara rest through the bye

Give Murray a larger role
Pound and finesse mach ii

Ingram who? Dayum Murray earned my trust. I know Hicks wasn't there but if he was I don't see him catching that train.

Re: Our running back situation
 

Bench Kamara. Nobody expected us to win this many games Breesless. Let the man heal. We far exceeded what was thought possible. This will give him almost a month off. Him and Brees return back on track.

For What It's Worth: Kamara Rushing attempts through first 5 games.
2018 63 rushes for 299 yards
2019 86 rushes for 373 yards
He's carried the ball an average of 3.4 times more per game this year than last.

Re: Our running back situation
 

I have tried to point that out, its a perception thing, people think Kamara is carrying a buttload more. He just isnt.

Kamara doesn't break the top 15 RBs in carries

Re: Our running back situation
 

There’s a few out there that had doubts . Just true to Ingram I suppose, but look I liked mark too. It took me 4 years to like him though. I said from the beginning that the Murray acquisition may suit us better. He’s built to pound the rock.

This encapsulates it best (from other thread); where players have got to convince SP to stay with the running game and let our guys pound their guys...

While I'm happy with Murray's game yesterday, still can't let go that that game yesterday was built for Mark Ingram, who we developed, and that Kamara's not as banged up with Ingram still in B&G...

Washington and Zenner were BEASTS. So glad we cut Ozigbo. His unbelievable catch in the last preseason game was "nothing to see here" .

Re: Our running back situation
 

It was good to see both Washington and Zenner out there getting snaps. They both looked good out there. Murray had a statement game. We just might be more stable at RB than most of us ever thought possible to start the season without Ingram.

Perception is not reality.

Re: Our running back situation
 

The thing with Kamara is that while it’s awesome that he doesn’t go down on first contact, those hits add up. He takes a beating.

Murray is the type of RB that gets better and stronger as the game goes on with more carries.

Re: Our running back situation
 

If Kamara is fit fir this week just light touches change of pace/3rd downs for me. Let the man heal lotta games left

Re: Our running back situation
 

Yup. And 2018 was with Ingram missing the first 4 games.

I habe no doubt that Kamara can carry the load. But not while he's injured. Hope he rests.
