From the episode

Shuck, Camara, Vele, Juwan Johnson, I think that there are probable pivots in most situations for those guys. The Vikings defense has just been too doggone good... I wouldn't touch a running back on new Orleans with a thousand foot pole right now against Minnesota.

Negative signalMatchup

Kamara is a probable pivot; avoid Saints RBs against elite Vikings D.

Alvin Kamara is a probable pivot in most situations for the Saints against Minnesota; Pittsburgh. Then would not touch a running back on New Orleans with a thousand-foot pole against the Vikings, whose defense is ranked number one against running backs.
