Good call on him as a kick returner.

But I think this move is more about an all in commitment to the run game, so I hope those that bash McVay for not running aren't making fun of this signing.

My first thought was him having the exact same role here as he did in Philly, where they ran the ball to death. A third RB who actually gets carries because you run the ball so damn much.

Not sure quite what the question means but I'll try my best to answer. The bet I put on you can see below:

The bet equates to 169/1. I don't get my stake back as it's a free bet. The best I can see now for the same bet is 141.8/1. As @Londoner has just posted you can still get the Rams at 33s in a single bet. Obviously these bets are for bookies here in Blighty and not the U S of A.

Can you bet at Bet365 as an American?

These bitch ass betting apps here wont' let me bet online with my state. I was using a VPN with a few in Costa Rica but they stopped allowing US bettors.

Scott's pre-draft info noted that he had 4.4 speed. He seems likes a potential upgrade over Rivers if he can pick up the offense. I have seen many posters here wanting a complimentary back with deep speed. Barring injuries, Rivers, Evans, and Scott are all fighting for probably two spots.
His issue is that at his size, its just real tough to handle blitz pick up. So when he is in the game, it's a run or a real quick pass.

He is likley here mostly for the new kickoff rules, and emergency duty where you might need him once or twice a year for a few touches. And I have no issues with that.

A quick google tells me you can but only in certain states. I’m guessing this doesn’t include where you are.

Apologies for all the betting talk, I’m happy we’ve signed Scott. Maybe a vet ILB as well if one becomes available.

Yeah same here, changing up my vpn services right now to see if I can find one that will help fix this issue for me. Thanks!

You can bet how many games The Rams can WIN !(or lose) I played Big Big Big money on them back in 2015 & 16. Fisher had to GO(bye). If you look at his talent,it was impressive.

Actually Boston Nealand Scott was named after his great grandfather whose nickname was Boston and he was some mathematician at the time that was pretty well-known.

What I remember of Scott was the quickness and scooting the through the hole. Insurance policy in case Corum isn't quite ready early on. The only thing is, I don't see a change of pace with any of our backs. They're all short, quick slashing type runners. Seems like McVay wants a specific type of back in his offense and not so much change of pace guys.

My understanding is that McVay wants the same offense regardless of which RB is in. That way he will have some surprise whatever his call.

Yes a commitment to ensuring the run game is SO effective, we open up the pass to explode. The Rams are all about metrics, and it’s a passing league. We’re gonna sling it.

What’s cool about how this Rams team is shaping up we can win with “match-ups”… The NFL is a game of match-ups. We can hit you with the run or the pass.

We are super balanced on offense and can win a LOT of match-ups… I am liking the potential of this offense!

I definitely think the new KO return rules brought Scott to the Rams. I like it because he does complete the munchkin backfield also. We'll call them "stealth" backs. Speed and wisdom in Scott's game. Question is why was he available?
