The run game is Derek Carr's favorite part of Klint Kubiak's offense

When you’ve been a part of eight offensive schemes since entering the NFL, you tend to think you’ve seen or heard everything there is to see or hear. Derek Carr realized that’s not true by watching Klint Kubiak teach his run schemes at New Orleans Saints training camp.

Kubiak is Carr’s eighth offensive coordinator since his rookie year in 2014 and is showing the veteran new verbiage. “There’s some things in the run game, the way they teach things and say things, that I haven’t heard before.”

Carr pointed out the multitude of offenses he’s been in over his decade long career to emphasize how many different schemes he’s learned. Still, Kubiak’s is unique.

Not only unique, it’s effective. Kubiak’s offense may be easy on the quarterback, but how it impacts the Saints’ running backs is the main event.

“We can all look back to the history of this offense and see guys who ran the ball well,” Carr said. There’s a reason he labeled the run game as his favorite part of the new offense. If guys like Alvin Kamara can meet expectations set for them with fresh play designs setting them up, maybe they can get the Saints were this team wants to go.
