I hope we continue to feed the ball to Murray

I don’t care who plays QB until Drew gets back we need to stick to running the ball up the gut with Murray. Our defense might be the best in the league and our offensive line is a top 5 unit that can overpower people. Atlanta is starting to show signs of life on offense so the best way to keep them down is by controlling the flow of the game. I hated losing Mark Ingram but you have to give Murray some recognition for the job he’s done on a cheap contract. He’s big and he always seems to fall forward. Use him and save Kamara from taking punishment until the playoffs.

This seems to be what we are doing and I agree it's a good idea. If we don't HAVE to have Kamara in there for heavy snaps, then don't. Murray is one of the better back ups.

there is no point in playing kamara right now, he cant run for shite unless there is a 10ft hole to run through

kamara for 1 yard, kamara for 2 yards, holy cow a HUGE gain as kamara runs for 4 yards, kamara for 1 yard loss, kamara for 4 yard loss, etc etc

im not saying he isnt good, just that until he can run with power just rotate murray and washington in there and let kamara sit until he is 100% again

or if this is all he can do after injury and can no longer be a fast and shifty runner then its time to re-evaluate his worth to the team

What game did you watch yesterday? Kamara had some big runs. It baffles me that none of y’all seem to know that Kamara has a toe injury and they are limiting his touches. Murray’s been great and yes they need to continue to run the ball. Taysom also needs to learn how to throw it and especially check it down to Kamara to exploit mismatches with him and the linebackers

You’re bashing the man who just averaged 5 ypc in a game yet say he can’t run the ball. He actually was good in the limited role he played. I’m not sure what game you watched yesterday but Kamara was fine. He isn’t truly himself but he def isn’t going for 1-2 yards a play like you say. And the fact that you’re even questioning his “worth” to this team tells me everything i need to know about you.

SP biggest issue the past few years is bailing on the running game.

personally think its cost us a few playoff wins.

Kamara has played really well this year. Taysom does need to utilize him more in the passing game when competition gets heavier. However, murray provides a good between the tackles option for us so we don’t have to get Kamara banged up. Save Kamara for close games and tough matchups and let Murray get 4 yards a pop between the tackles.

Was glad to see him have some open field to run in
He really has been leaned on to take a pounding on a lot of short yard plays. He hasn't complained or slacked off but played hard every damn second he has been in.

And as a added bonus any opponent we face now has another player to scheme for.

We need to keep doing this even after Drew gets back. We have a great ground game. The guy calling the plays is the only reason we aren’t dominating in the running attack on a weekly basis.

Do you even watch the games? That is a ridiculous statement at best.

Murray ran well last year and we still raced to ride with an injured kamara, don’t get it.
