Most teams now are fast( built for the air attack) and a true powerback trucks those teams opening up the entire field. If teams are able to load the box on Brees he has to have a great run game. Kamaras not going to cut it, more of a specialty role player and not a true #1 back. Gruden just give the rest of the teams a cure to the Saints O and if Payton can't figure out something Brees is in for a long hard season under center. He's not mobile either.
The Titans can stretch the field. You stack the box on them and they have a mobile QB with a strong enough arm to throw it deep in Ryan Tannehill. You stack the box on the Titans and they can take the top off. It’s pick your poison. That isn’t the situation here with the Saints. If a teams stacks the box to take away the run game nobody has to worry about Brees carving them up. Even if the run game is working it’s not going to open up the field. He’s going to dump it off whether it’s play action or out of the shotgun. The Vikings gave teams the cure and and everybody is executing it to perfection. Believe me bruh...we gotta sit him. I know everybody still has high hopes because it’s early, but this won’t get better for him.
