Is it just me or does Kamara seem to go down much easier than in prior years?

Kind of disagree. Dude is one of the hardest players in the NFL to bring down.

Kamara still looks elite to me.

He's looked more like his old self in the last 2-3 weeks. What do you mean?

He gets pulled down rather easily. He used to break away from arm tackles. I still like him on our team.

yes, he runs into tackles thinking he can still run over people, which he cant.

when you look at his stats, remember if he rushes for 20 times, 15 of those will be a 1 yard gain or even a loss on the play. then he breaks one for over 20 yards 3 or 4 times a game to get his 100 yards on the day.

We just need to accept that year 1-3 Kamara is not ever coming back.

With that being said, I’ve actually been pleased with his play this season. By far his best year in 3 years or so.

Agreed. He looks much much more like his old self than the past couple or a few years. Burst has increased noticeably

To me, he looks closer to vintage Kamara than he has in a while.

He’s grinding out a productive season, but two things are missing.

No big plays. His long rush is 17 and his long reception is 25. He just hasn’t been able to break anything loose for a big gainer all season. That’s reflected in his career low yards per touch. This may be a product of him losing a step.

Few TDs. Whether due to a taysom package or generally poor red zone play, Kamara isn’t scoring many TDs. I put this fault largely on the coaches. I still think he is the most dynamic TD maker on this team.

Kamara is in decline. Most running backs these days only have a good 5-7 years then they fade drastically, hence why teams don’t offer RB’s anymore lucrative contracts.

This is an interesting take considering he has zero rushes of 20+ yards this season.
