Alvin Kamara breaking tackles

[VolFaninFla]

Alvin Kamara's monster night not enough to end Saints' early-season funk
Made five defenders miss.

 

[VOL Outlaw]

he's a glitch.

 

[Dudleys87]

Jones was trending yesterday because “he’s the only one to contain Kamara”

 

[wmcovol]

Not sure a couple of those efforts could be classified as attempted tackles

 

[harrit4]

I love Kamara, the way he throttles down in the open field, almost takes it out of gear, and coasts towards the endzone. He'd slow to a walk if there was enough time, and space between defenders. The Great Jim Brown used to do that too.

41 is the one I violate my boycott. Semi-boycott I reckon, then...

 

[tallshortvol]

Yeah we're never going to live down how utterly misused he was here. He may be the most talented all around back in the league right now with how good he is in the pass game.

Packers shouldn't be worried about catching corona, they can't even catch Kamara.

Saw a post from PFF I believe, right on the money. “What do you get when you combine a RB1 with a WR1? Alvin Kamara” He could be a WR1 in the NFL, no doubt in my mind.

Yeah.
He's what Reggie Bush was supposed to be.

That was some horrible tackling. But Kamara does have that slippery movement and it makes him hard to tackle, he absorbs contact and has great balance. Makes it look effortless.

I think Kamara would probably be playing well on any NFL team, but I'm thrilled he got his chance with a team/offense that knows how to use him and is tailor-made to use his strengths.

Him being under-used and misused at Tennessee probably cost him a chance to be drafted higher, but because of that he also has the benefit of not having as many miles on him as some college backs do. Hopefully he can have a longer NFL career because of it.

Yeah.

Bush started to become that later in his career. I think now he would put up better numbers now since the RB position has evolved.

 

[Alto1]

He had great vision on that run!

Vision is one of the best attributes of a great back, which he is.............

Did you see Gray attempt to do similar in his long, swing pass last Saturday night...?(came up JUST a bit short, tho)

well said, Butch didn't utilize Kamara's talent like he should have but he didn't take as many hits that helped his health for the NFL, love to see him run
