Alvin Kamara: I can't blame the fans for leaving early, I'll leave too

In the early days of the Saints franchise, there were times when fans would wear paper bags over their heads to register their displeasure with the team's play.

There weren't any paper bags in sight at the Superdome Thursday night, but there were plenty of empty seats at the end of the Broncos' 33-10 victory. Running back Elvin Kamara said it was the first time in his eight years with the Saints that he saw the stadium cleaned up before the end of a game and said he understood why fans were “upset” at the fifth loss.

“Our play is unacceptable and two, the dome is empty or empty – I think I saw some fans leave in the second quarter – It is unacceptable” Kamara said in his postgame media session. “I don't blame the fans, it's on us. They come to see us play and perform and when we don't perform, you get results. But I never felt that and I wish I was a fan. But I would also leave because it's not good enough now.”

Kamara's postgame comments left fans wondering if a sustained run like the Saints' now could bring big changes for a franchise. It's not hard to see that a few more losses will lead to heated discussions about coaching changes and major roster moves, so everyone in New Orleans should be looking for ways to turn things around as soon as possible.
