Alvin Kamara “No Longer a Safe Bet”: Saints Face Potential Lineup Changes After Brutal Loss

10 views

The New Orleans Saints are spiraling after a humiliating 44-13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The scoreboard wasn’t the only disaster — the performance raised serious concerns about the team’s offensive identity, and especially the future of star running back Alvin Kamara.

Kamara Losing His Grip as the Go-To Option

For years, Alvin Kamara has been the Saints’ most versatile weapon — equally dangerous running the ball or catching out of the backfield. But this season, his impact has faded.

Following the blowout loss, analysts were quick to label Kamara as “no longer a safe bet,” both for the Saints and in the fantasy football world. With New Orleans often forced to abandon the run and play catch-up, Kamara’s opportunities have shrunk, leaving him a shadow of the playmaker he once was.

Possible Shake-Up in the Backfield

Sources close to the team suggest that the coaching staff is seriously considering lineup adjustments at the running back position. That could mean Kamara will no longer be the centerpiece of the Saints’ offense, as younger players may see expanded roles in the coming weeks.

What’s Next for Kamara and the Saints?

Kamara’s decline poses a difficult question for New Orleans:

  • Can the team find a way to revive his explosiveness?

  • Or is it time to move on and rebuild around fresh talent?

  • With an undefeated Buffalo Bills team looming in Week 4, all eyes will be on head coach Dennis Allen and how he decides to deploy Alvin Kamara.

    👉 Could this be the beginning of the end for Kamara’s era in New Orleans? Fans won’t have to wait long to find out.
