Let's say a project is expected to take 4 weeks to complete. Then, it is no longer a Scrum project. It is a waterfall project that is pretending to be a Scrum project.
With Scrum, everyone commits to working on something that will be done within the release cycle (usually 1 week), then re-evaluating based on feedback. This means asking for smaller things more often.
Trouble is that most people don't know how to ask for and build by starting lean and staying lean. They get ahead of themselves (and the team) by assuming more than they should.
