The New Orleans Saints are struggling, and 41-year old quarterback Drew Brees has caught a lot of flak for shrinking the field by not attempting many passes more than 20 yards out. Whether that’s fair criticism is up to you, but Saints running back Alvin Kamara didn’t waste time in coming to the defense of his teammate.
“I’m fine with Drew. It’s early in the season,” Kamara said in his Wednesday conference call with local media. “Everybody outside of this building has something to say and quite honestly, I don’t really give a damn. Drew has proven to be one of the best, if not the best quarterback, year in and year out and I’m expecting the same thing this year, no matter what, what’s going on.
