Sounds disastrous to me. Kamara takes one good lick from Lavonte David and we’re left with one RB who wasn’t on the team a week ago.

I don’t know the last time I was this nervous about trying to sneak a player through waivers.

+1. That's Russian roulette if you ask me.

Gotta believe Jonathan Williams will be added to the 53 by game day.

So we're adding Williams instead of Scott?

Just reading between lines, it appears Scott needs a lot of work in pass protection. I could see Williams promoted to the 53 by Sunday & Boston to the p/s (assuming he clears waivers).

My spider senses tell me Boston will clear. If a team wanted him, they would have snatched him by now. No sense in waiting this long.

This....doesn't make any sense. Scott clearly out performed every RB in preseason except Kamara and Ingram. Williams and Gillislee are one dimensional backs...if they are in the game it's going to be a run and most likely inside the tackles.

The thing that made our running game so great last year was that both Ingram and Kamara can catch the ball in space and make plays.

I have a feeling that Brees will be throwing 35+ passes this week....not a good way to start things...

Coaches must be seeing a bit more. How is Boston's pass protection? I think if Payton was confident in his ability, Scott would be here. I think the staff trust veterans more. Let Gillislee run inside the tackles & see how he does.

Personally, I'd rather have vet RB's protecting #9 until Mark Ingram returns from suspension.

Nothing against BS, but +1 right here.
