Kendre Miller Leads Carries in Crappy Run Game

Kendre Miller Headshot

The Saints managed just 67 yards on 20 carries in Monday night's loss to the Packers. RB Kendre Miller drew a team-high 8 carries but turned them into just 15 yards (1.9 per rush). Most of that came on a single 10-yard run. QB Spencer Rattler easily led the team in rushing with 28 yards on 5 carries.

Jordan Mims and Jamaal Williams also factored into the backfield. Mims led the team with 8 targets and 5 receptions despite doing little with those receiving opportunities. Half of those targets came on the Saints' final possession.

Williams carried the ball three times for 8 yards in the first half and then didn't touch the ball in the second half.

The Saints should be able to run the ball at least a bit better against the Raiders in Week 17. But I certainly didn't see anything in the Monday night game to make me want to play a New Orleans RB against Vegas.
