2. Boom and Zoom get back to business

One of the biggest pieces of the Saints offense has been the dynamic duo of Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara. Affectionally known as Boom and Zoom, they have been terrorizing the league all season. Sadly, Kamara was concussed in their first meeting and Ingram handled it alone.

This week, Boom and Zoom will be back and bigger than ever. Without Ingram taking the brunt of it, they will be able to keep the Falcons on their toes. Ingram might have only rushed for 49 yards, but also had 43 receiving yards against the Falcons. I predict Ingram will rush for over 100 yards against the Falcons and at least one touchdown.

As for Kamara, he’ll make up for lost time in their first meeting. There was nothing Kamara could have done, but he’ll show why he’s called Zoom. Kamara will show off his speed and run circles around the Falcons defenders. While he’ll rush for fewer yards than Ingram, I predict Kamara will keep his catch-and-run routine up and go for at least a touchdown.

With the offense depending so heavily on the duo, it was hard to see the loss of Kamara during their first meeting. This upcoming week, a healthy Kamara paired with the trusted Ingram will be dangerous against the Falcons.
