"I felt like he wanted to get jumped over, so I just jumped over him," Kamara said of the Rams' Webster. "I've had two in the NFL now, and two in college against Vanderbilt in 2015. It was the same thing. 'All right, I'm just going to jump over the dude.' A lot of it is instinctual."No big deal. Just flying over dudes whenever.
Also Bradley leads off with Kamara this week at B&G before getting into some stage-setting stuff about the rest of the season. In short, here's what we know about this year's Saints.
So far, they’re a team with a sterling record against the 2017 NFL’s big middle class, but a 1-3 record against its top tier. These Saints have a lot of pretty okay wins over teams hovering around .500, but only one (their first win, over Carolina) against a fellow current member of its ruling elite.I'm not sure either the Saints or the Panthers belong among the league's "elite," frankly. But they are playing for first place Sunday so that's nice.
On the other hand, just don't get too disappointed if things start to go sideways for the Saints from here on out. They're less healthy now than they've been. The defense clearly has suffered from that. They're not going to replace the production they were getting from Alex Okafor. It looks like they're without Marshon Lattimore for another week. And it's not clear that even Ken Crawley is going to be able to give them very much. There are problems on offense too. But I'm not really here trying to write a whole thing about that today.
Instead, I'm just ducking in to say they're about to play a tough stretch against division rivals on a short week and they could easily lose those and that could easily be where the season falls apart. So, you know, manage those expectations. It's time.
