For having the nerve to put Kamara and McCaffrey in the same sentence. Talking about them like they are in the same stratosphere.

Breakout stars like Kamara, McCaffrey aren't just for 3rd downs anymore


I swear, they CMC to be a successful RB and Cam Newton to be a successful QB so BADLY. I thought we realized that it's 2017 and affirmative action doesn't work

I’ve been watching the saints for the last month and Kamara is the reason why. He is like elastic when they try and tackle him

He curves his whole body while staying on the same trajectory. I just do not get why he’s so hard to tackle but he is. It’s like watching a magic trick and I can’t figure out how the trick is done

Haven’t seen mccaffrey play but I find it hard to believe he’s as good as Kamara

Kamara is somewhere between Marshall Faulk and Barry Sanders

I’d say 8-3 is pretty successful.

He takes losses, no gains and short gains and turns them into first downs (diet Barry Sanders because sanders would house them while playing behind a shite line with shite QBs, only one good receiver and nothing but shite coaches)

Faulk? Maybe

Those are both one of a kind RBs. I don’t think he may be as good as they were, but he’s definitely unique. Maybe not as unique as they were. Especially Sanders, holy shite was he incredible

From the article that I'm sure you didn't read

quote:

So far, Kamara has been even better as a true between-the-tackles runner than even the Saints expected. He is averaging 7.1 yards per carry -- nearly two full yards ahead of any other qualified running back in the NFL.

Kamara's rushing and receiving numbers are almost identical (546 rushing, 548 receiving), putting him on pace for nearly 1,600 yards from scrimmage, 79 receptions and 13 touchdowns.

McCaffrey, meanwhile, is on pace for "only" 390 rushing yards, 86 catches for 681 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.



So mad

Kamara is such a unique player. He 's an every down back with toughness, wicked vision and field awareness. Undefinable and while comparable to some of the great backs he has his own style, Let others be compared to him. Let's also enjoy what we are witnessing. AK has just scratched the surface given the small sample size of only 11 professional games played it will be interesting to see how he develops. Special talent for sure.

Karma is a smooth runner with a good strong finishing kick.

That run against the Rams didn't appear it would go the distance at first to me but sure enough he capped it off. It didn't look like their DB's took the best angle on him but it could be that he just has that deceptive speed.

he's patient a lot like PT was I think but that just goes back to understanding what he has to do I guess?

He doesn't have elite breakaway speed but it's certainly good enough and from 1-10 yards nobody is quicker. He's going to get to that second level more often than most guys just because of his short area burst.
