In a post-game interview, New Orleans Saints star running back Alvin Kamara expressed his dismay at the team’s fifth consecutive loss to the Denver Broncos. Kamara, a seasoned player in the league, described this string of defeats as one of the most frustrating runs in his football career.
Addressing the media after the game, Kamara highlighted two key issues that he found “unacceptable” in Thursday night’s performance. “It’s a couple unacceptable things going on. One, our play is unacceptable. And two, the dome being empty, or emptying out, I think I saw some fans leaving second quarter, that’s unacceptable,” Kamara candidly stated.
The running back went on to express his astonishment at the sight of the Superdome clearing out during the game, noting, “I’ve been here eight years, and I’ve never seen the dome clear out like that.” He acknowledged that the fans’ departure was a direct result of the team’s poor performance and accepted it as a justified reaction.
Reflecting on his experiences playing in New Orleans over the past seven years, Kamara remarked that the mass exodus of fans was unprecedented. “I’ve never seen this from the Superdome,” he added. The running back empathized with the frustration felt by the fans, stating, “If I was a fan, I would leave too. Just being honest. It’s just, people fed up.”
Kamara’s remarks shed light on the disappointment and frustration that both the team and the fans are feeling amidst their recent struggles on the field. The running back’s honest assessment of the situation underscores the urgency for the Saints to turn their season around and regain the trust and support of their loyal fanbase.
