...vs the Vikings?

5 carries, 7 receptions?

That dude needs at least 10 touches. 5 runs, 6 rec.

With AP going for over 200 yards, maybe not many.

Minnesota is a game where Peterson can have all the snaps and not a single person will be mad.

Except all of the fans and players because that isn't in the best interest of winning.

Maybe 5. I'd like to see more, but I think his role will be more defined at this point as a 3rd and long back. Ingram and Peterson can rotate drives

Ingram and Peterson get 85% of touches imo.
Kamara will be worked in slower as far as carrying the ball with the 2 guys we have in front if him. He will be used in the passing attack more overtime I would imagine. Might even see him run in the slot a little bit possibly.

13 catches

In their first years with the Saints, Bush averaged 10 carries and 5 receptions and Sproles averaged 6 carries and 5 receptions. But it was very unbalanced as some games would be 3 carries and others would be 17 carries.
With our current backfield I'd guess 4-5 carries and 5 receptions. Maybe a kickoff return or two.

The snead suspension leads me to think Kamara is going to get some reps from the slot.
His hands are better than TLL, Coleman, Ginn. He will be HUGE for us the 3 games snead is out.

The Kamaro is going for 50 yards rushing 60 yards receiving and 1 TD.
AP is going to get 1 hunnit yards and 2 TD
Ingram is going to get ~85 yard rushing, 30 yards receiving.
Yep that's my bold prediction. The saints will rush for 235 yards

Wouldnt shock me to see us run it way more than throw it in this game.
Minn. strength is on the ends. Where we are missing our best lineman. Meanwhile we have a HOSS at guard who should clear a hole like we havent seen since Jhari in his prime.

w/ Snead out 3 games, wouldn't be surprised if they line up Kamara at slot WR

I am imagining a general gameplan that looks something like this:
15 touches for Ingram
10 touches for Peterson
5 touches for Kamara
If someone gets hot then it changes in the game

I expect Kamara to be put in backfield with AP or Ingram a few times. Have him motion out for mismatch with LB if few decide to throw it or less defenders in the box if we want to run it.

Agreed. I've been saying that since the draft. I feel like AP + Kamara in the backfield at the same time is a really dangerous thing. AP has seen full boxes for the entirety of his career. A little bit of tape on Kamara smoking LBs and he'll have guys gameplanning for that and we can probably free up some space in the box for AP.

I don't care how many touches. It is what he does with them. As long as we use everyone in the flow of the offense and don't force the ball it the hands of anyone for obvious reasons.
I don't agree with getting the ball to a player just because he needs some touches. If the Vikings come out and give Thomas bracket coverage and the others are open all night I don't care if Thomas finishes with 0 catches if Brees is 25/32 for 325 yards and 3 TDs.
