Pick one

I can't pick one:
Kamara is garbage now let him walk in free agency if he wants more than 5m which he will.
The OL played terrible.
Lutz mr reliable missed a make-able fg.
2 drew turnovers.

Kamara was horrible looks like he is afraid to take the hit to defense so he stalls shuffles his feet goes nowhere but out of bounds. He’s not even attracting much attention from the defense because they can lay back and know that he will not take it to them like Hill does.

Why did it take the play calling 3 quarters to get in to the quick drop 2 sec max ball out passing game that has worked in the past ... when defenses are pressuring constant pressure and he can’t step up. I just don’t get it .... adapt and overcome.

All this slow developing run and passing scheme cost us today.

We should have kept pounding with Murray. Kamara was playing soft all season.

I don’t disagree with any of that, but this was in the cards.

Team loss; everything on that list contributed.

The TE not set that took away the fake punt conversion.

Kimara not set that cost the Saints 10 seconds before OT

Brees and Lutz.

They've been great all season but Brees cracks in the playoffs and his 2 turnovers destroyed our momentum.

D played okay, they couldn't really get pressure on Cousins which was annoying and Marcus Williams was late on the big completion to Theilen. Which is the norm for him.

I'll add one, no decent #2 receiver.

I disagree.
TE Jared Cook has been lights out...... sits on the sidelines until late 4th quarter?

Why?
