00:00Yeah, the hunt is going to be a big one because obviously with the loss of Pacheco and how

00:09they would have utilized Pacheco, how he would have got them down the field, how he would

00:12have got them in the end zone, there's a number of things that they missed out on that Hunt

00:16showed that he could fulfill that role.

00:17You said it in the pregame show.

00:19That's why they brought him in.

00:20That's what they paid him to do.

00:21And he showed that he can secure his job tonight with 102 rushing yards and one touchdown.

00:26Now as for kind of gauging props or players moving forward, I know there was a lot of

00:29upset people with any Alave props tonight, me being one of them, Joe Lisi being one of

00:35them.

00:36It was just tough to watch.

00:38Of course, congratulations to Rashid Shahid to be able to be the guy leading the charts.

00:42But I mean only 86, I don't want to say only, but only 86 receiving yards.

00:47Obviously Saints offense struggled quite a bit there.

00:49You got Kamara right behind him with 40 receiving yards.

00:51So obviously that topped the charts on what you had going for your card.

00:55But Alave closed the night at 10 receiving yards through two receptions.

00:59This is somebody that we were keyed in on weekend and week out to be a big factor for

01:02this Saints offense.

01:04Regardless, we saw the attempt to make some big plays, but nothing really connecting.

01:08How do you gauge moving forward here with what's going to happen?

01:11Is it just Kamara or we have to figure out what's going to happen with the quarterback

01:14situation first?

01:16It probably starts there.

01:18You know, I like I said in the pregame show, I was pretty low on Alave coming into this

01:21game just based on the fact that he's missing Trent McDuffie out there.

01:25So it's a tough road for any receiver in that spot.

01:29They have to figure out what's wrong with the car because they said it was an oblique.

01:31How serious is it?

01:33What's going to be for them?

01:35Because that impacts Rasheed Shaheed, it impacts Chris Alave.

01:38Kamara might be the best option if the car is going to miss any time.

01:41This is obviously just pure speculation, but Kamara would be the best option because they

01:44probably turn to a lot of the running ground, the running game on the ground.

01:48And that's where Kamara would shine.

01:49The passing options, this has to be an immediate downgrade.

01:51This is the same thing when Tutankhamen got hurt for the Dolphins, an immediate downgrade

01:56for Tyreek Hill and Jalen Wild.

01:58It's the same essentially for Rasheed Shaheed and Chris Alave.

02:01But again, pure speculation is we don't know what's actually wrong with cars at this point.

02:05Yeah, great point out there.

02:07And regardless of the speculation, in accordance to the injury, we just didn't see much ability

02:13of car being protected tonight to have time to air out the ball.

02:16So that's probably something else that might be problematic depending on their strength

02:19of schedule moving forward, which we know it's going to get a little bit more complicated.
