Is jimmy going to be the starter at SF in 22?
I thought there was some debate on that. Is his contract up?
My understanding is the 49ers are slightly conflicted in that they are reluctant to move on from Jimmy G as the team came very close to winning a Superbowl and reaching another with him at QB. But they gave up a lot to draft Lance and surely in doing so they need to give him his chance sooner rather than later.

dude avg'd 150 yards passing zero tds and a pick in each of their wins this post season. and that's w/ kittle and deebo lol. there's a reason they traded 3 first round picks for a project
He played pretty well in the post season just gone regardless of what the box score says. He made a lot of key throws to move the chains. How many play off games has Prescott won over the past 6 years?

Ok tired of the baker thread, but in it someone brought up jimmy, and he also beat dallas in wc game.
He wouldnt be that expensive would he ? maybe a 1 year deal?
just imagine dak having to compete with JG in TC!

And I will be clear , I am NOT saying he is better than dak, I would put them in similar category,
only jimmy has won more play off games.

Then of course dak would start the season, but if he struggles, or he needs a couple games off,
they would have a capable bkup to take over.
Also it would probably light a fire under dakko !

As it is with just rush and dinucci, as bkups, dak is relaxed and can just coast , sit in a chair with one
of those drinks with a umbrella ! He has absolutely no competition right now.

I also think it would be fun to see JG play with dallas, dont know how well he would do, but it would be
fun to watch?

Any other qb's for bkup and potential starter? what about heineke?
not gonna happen , but its good fantasy discussion !
He beat us:lmao::lmao2::huh:

his team beat us and wants top replace him with a raw rookie..huh irony in that at all?:popcorn:

Let me be clear: Jimmy Garrapolo IS better than Dak, and for that reason Dak would fight having him in Dallas with all his might.
Why do you think the only backups are guys that couldn't last anywhere else?
Dak needs to be gone and Jimmy Garrapolo SHOULD be the starter.
not even close Daks superior. Sorry.. JG is so good his teams been trying to get rid of his the last 2 seasons,. troll away

Love him or hate him Dak is the QB for the next two seasons at minimum. It's just nearly impossible to get out of the contract until then, Jerry isn't going to pay Dak to play backup QB this year, plus you bring in serious competition for Dak and that locker room becomes just as divided on Dak as this board is.

I'm not a Dak fanboy, but it's time to accept the reality of our QB situation, and focus more on how the Cowboys can best position him for success at this point. Replacement talk didn't die but certainly went on life support when he signed the new deal.
People still have the right to criticise if a player underperformed last season which Prescott clearly did since and including the Broncos game

Jimmy G and Baker are about the same thing. Neither is as good as Dak and both would be too expensive to be one year backups on a team that isn't likely to win a SB this year regardless of who is at QB this year. And that's ignoring the drama aspect which I don't personally want any part of

I think this would make great competition in camp. Dak is better, but the competition would keep Dak on his toes and Jimmy G. would be a pretty good back up for us.

lol no he didn't, the only game he played somewhat decently in, they lost. guy sucks. I'm not entertaining the Dak portion because it's irrelevant. Jimmy would not be a good qb for our football team independent of anything else

These threads crack me up.
Like it or not we stuck with Dak...that’s a fact.
Kinda like having a car that you may not be happy with and you see other rides that you like but no way your trading because you paid too dayum much for the car to begin with and you're buried upside down in the payments......
No
We should give a draft pick and pay 24 million to a backup QB who is a FA the next year lol

yeah it is just fun to talk "WHAT IF" jones boys are in a rut with dak mike kellen tyronS lawrence elliot. etc
They wont do the work to get rid of any of those guys anytime soon.

If I was owner or gm I could get rid of dak this summer. contract wouldnt matter.
I would make him so mad or miserable he would accept a trade, and he could have a say in which team of the ones that are interested.
I would bring in garapolo or someone else.
elliot I would try but doubt any team would take him at his price, so might just make him the bkup rb, or certain situations.
I would also bring in another rb , a cheap one for 1 season.
Tyron I dont know, I might make him bkup and just try to save him for playoffs.
kellen, I would bring in a real OC if I could find one, and make kellen his assistant.
Mike himm might have to stay with him, but I might offer a OC like kc OC the HC job and call plays.

shake it up! liven things up !
Jones boys are so boring , they just stay the course, and it is a bad course!
Bringing in jimmy G costs a pick and 24 mil for a one year rental
What a plan

Let me be clear, no he isn't lol.
Anyone who think jimmy g is better than Dak is brain dead
There is a reason a team that was one dropped int from going to the SB is willing to trade their QB

The Niners defense and Deebo Samuel beat Dallas. Jimmy did his best to give it away late.

Jimmy isn't overcoming penalties, a worn down Zeke, and a defense that can't stop the run.

If he was so good why are the 49ers trying to trade him?
Teams don’t move on from their QB who’s is good unless they are rebuilding and the 49ers aren’t rebuilding

I think the new wave for some is to replace your own good quarterback with quarterbacks that other teams are trying to get rid of and replace, like Baker and Jimmy G.
