Why can Phillip Lyndsay make Broncos 53 and Scott can’t make ours?

We had Ingram on suspension and gillipsee and Williamson ain’t did much of jack and promoted Nathaniel Wisconsin from PS. It makes no sense

Scott obviously isn’t that good. Time to let it go

Those who have took the roster haven’t been good.

Saints needed a bruiser type back like Ingram to share the load with Kamara, Scott is more close in style to Kamara than he is Ingram.

Bruiser for the 4 carries?

Because gilleslee and Williams have played like arse. Guarantee Scott averages more than 2ypc.

Well I think they hoped those 2 would play better of course.

And yea, I’ve been pimping up Scott since before we drafted him, I think he is better than those 2 also.

Well, we are 3-1 and Ingram comes back next game. So, its not so bad, we made it without Scott.

Well to be fair, if Scott gets Gillislee's carries against Tampa and just doesn't fumble, maybe the Saints are 4-0.

Why the hell do you guys spend so much time arguing about a PS back? Sean fricking Payton, arguably the top offensive coach in the league, doesn't think Scott is ready to contribute in real games. That's more than enough of an explanation for me.

To be fair, not like he's always right

He kept Josh Hill over Cameron Brate

The true answer might be that Payton like Scott, but isn't sure that he wants to keep him on the 53 man roster every week.

Even a little exposure in a game could open him up to being taken from us by another team of the PS.

Pre-draft, I really wanted Ito Smith as a Sprolesy-fit & passing game insurance in case Kamara missed some time.

Then we drafted Boston Scott, and I got all hyped when not only did he project to the same Sprolesy-type role, but PFF called him one of the steals of the draft, citing some stats that out-produced Saquon Barkley.

Now, ironically, Ito Smith is filling in nicely for the Falcons while Freeman is out, and Boston Scott is buried on the PS.

SMDH. The draft is such a crapshoot.

It's a fair point but I along with other people just want to see "what if".... it's not that people think Boston Scott is an all pro, but we are just tired of the shite they keep putting out. If Scott can't hack it than lets find out now

Chad504boy is an absolute Patriot and probably the best poster on ST, but this isn't his best work.

Besides Kamara, our RB situation without Ingram is not a good one.

BUT, why I want Scott on the 53 man roster is his return ability. TLL sucks and is not a good receiver, Ginn is a good receiver, but bad at returns, Tate is bad at it all and Kamara doesn’t need to be returning kicks.

For once, I want a decent punt/kick returner who can be a decent back up and contribute to the team in more than just that one way. Kind of what Hill is doing.
