Official Vikings at Saints thread

Is it just me or does Kamara just genuinely not look interested at all in being there?

He’s been pretty bad this year when expected to be “the guy” with Ingram gone. Was much better as more of a gadget guy, his yard per touch has dropped each year as his workload increases. Had some injuries too that might be affecting his explosion now, but either way I think it’s clear McC and Cook from that draft have pulled away from him in the “race.”

Even if they win this game it doesn't bode well at all for going to Lambeau next week.

Brees has been showing his age every year come playoff time for the past 3 years.

The Saints are going to have a very interesting decision to make in the offseason. They will owe Brees $20M at least whether or not he is on the roster. 

They obviously have a great roster overall. Do they risk paying a soon to be 42 year old who has shown decline by the end of the season?

There are going to be an almost unprecedented amount of QBs in FA this year. 

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens. Brees is going to play until no one wants him. Up until this point, he has always had the leverage with the Saints and could demand pretty much anything.

40. He will be 41 next week.

I was just about to post that Kamara has not looked the same since last year. Not sure what his deal is.

Probably sick of playing second fiddle to Ingram and now Murray while also losing goal line opportunities to taysom hill and even the full back.  Brees has also vultured some tds this year. 
 

have to think he sees what cmc and cook are doing and knows the saints are going to low ball him based off of their and his production. 

these guys can say this doesn’t matter, but I’m sure it weighs heavy for a running back who knows his second contract is likely his best opportunity for generational type wealth  

just my guess.

    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.  
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch 
    • What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
