Barry Hirstius: SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST: Kamara’s Health and Durability Key to Saints Success

Murray is very competent.
Went off on teams when Kamara wasn’t 100%
He also was starting to integrate well in the passing game.

Mix it up - don’t wear Alvin out

AK needs to play the limited role he did in the first season
1/2 punch

Sean needs to feed Murray

AK trying to go between the tackles when a good defense is shutting us in - no

Much more effective a little more sparingly and outside

In the 2019-20 Divisional Playoff in Our Dome, Minnesota didn't have a counter-punch to Murray nor Taysom - none...

Yet, once again, as he can never be wrong after coaching one Superbowl Team with Brees, was Sean Payton showing us who was in charge...

Murray and Taysom weren't on the field to punch it in and put a Kirk Cousin's Minnesota squad away...

It was evident from his rookie season Kamara isn't a bell-cow running back, he's a change-of-pace 15-18 touches per game combo-pack RB...

But Sean Payton, like Jim Mora before him, will shoot himself in the foot just to show everyone else, who can see the obvious, is wrong and he's right...

Hate to deter from the OP's topic of AK but I'm still trying to wrap my head around 7 carries all game for a down hill power back runner in Latavius ... against his former team with everything on the line. Absolutely criminal he wasn't more involved.

A more balanced rushing attack is needed and necessary for 2020.

And there it is...

How many times were we burned by a former player? Nature seeks balance and serves up the opportunity, but Payton, just like Jim Mora, wants to show he's in charge and smartest, so bang away with Kamara?!?

After investing a first and second round pick (compounded by two more 2s with BountyGate), plus years of development, WHY let Ingram leave and bring in Murray if you're not going to trust Murray with the ball?!?

Murray was running hard and had some nice carries.

Payton knows best though......lol
