3 reasons the Saints should not pursue Le’Veon Bell
The Saints’ chemistry at the position is already improving
Last year, I felt that the Saints didn’t utilize Latavius Murray to his fullest and that they over-utilized Alvin Kamara who wasn’t even close to 100 percent. That was pointed out when Kamara was injured and Murray stepped up big time in his absence.
After the first five weeks of this season, we’ve been highly impressed with the Saints’ usage of his talents. He has been running north to south while Kamara has been the back that receives and bounces it outside for his huge gains; they are working fantastic with each other.
Specifically, in those five weeks, Murray has been able to run 52 times for 218 yards. He also added six reception for 68 yards in that mix. The biggest stat of Murray’s season, however, is his ability to find the endzone not once but twice in one game.
Murray, once again, proved why he should not just be Kamara’s backup, but instead, he should be the partner in the rushing game. Because these two are working so well together, Bell shouldn’t even be considered to ruin this duo.
