Boston Scott booted??

TLL is only here still because Bill Parcells loves him and Payton wants to please his mentor.

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.

+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.

I hope you are right about the reason for Williams over Scott. Maybe they saw things in camp regarding past protection since we didn't see much of either one protecting on pass plays. Williams was pretty much running the ball every play he was in the game. Scott provides so many more dimensions than Williams, Gillislee, and Washington.

So much for not wearing Kamara out...if he is only going to get 15 touches total then we are going to be very pass heavy. Gillislee doesn't know enough of the playbook to truly contribute beside some inside runs.

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.

Don't worry. No doubt that Payton knows what he is doing.
