It is not as if we are only the team that gave up on him. No team had more invested in him than SF and they are way smarter than us. If Jerry hadn't come along , they would have gladly cut him for nothing.

The offense does need something , just not Trey Lance unless they put him at rb...... a position he is better suited to play.

Wildcat . MM draw up something .
Im Not saying bump off Dak I’m saying spice up a series here and there .

Trey Lance is currently the highest paid 3rd string QB in the NFL and is the 4th highest paid backup in the league behind Jarrett Stidham, Tyrod Taylor and Marcus Mariota, who all make about 6 mil.

Lance is making more than Joe Flacco, Andy Dalton and Jimmy Garropolo.

And our GM says we don’t have cap room…. :facepalm:

One of the dumbest trades I've ever seen.

As usual, the more Jerry inserts himself, the worse things get.

All the more reason to squeeze whatever you can out of the toothpaste tube . 2 yrs of nothing while SF now has a starting rookie safety with the pick Jerry gifted them .

Great nugget exposing the incompetence of GM Jerry. Couldn't stop at highest paid QB, had to have the highest paid QB3 too lol.

It's not really like rolling the dice, when you roll the dice, you get to see the numbers come up, this franchise has no clue what Lances numbers are because they have yet to roll the dice with Lance.
When we are out of contention, which unfortunately will be soon, 60-million-dollar blunder needs to go to the bench so that we can get an actual entire real game in with Lance and decide who he is.
They *might* have done that before extending Dak.

Now I think Jerry wouldn't want Lance to potentially show up Dak. Dak is better than Lance. But in one game, where Lance can also run? Lance could look good and make Jerry look like an ever bigger dope for extending Dak.

Wouldn’t it make sense at some point in this season of road warriors to have Lance back up Dak and actually get him some reps or heavan forbid give him a start . You let a 4 go out the window for the guy and next yr FA goodbye . Nothing in return ?

I already know what Cooper brings to the table and it’s limited but serviceable as a back up . The lack of mobility in either 7 or # 4 is horrible , ends drives . Just to spice up the season have him as back up in Santa Clara . MM be Bold !
No!

It's great that McCarthy has been getting him snaps for the past year and a half. So he'll be ready to play if Dak becomes a turnover machine.

Thank goodness our coach has been doing his job.

How did you like that red zone drive just now . Went nowhere .
Lol,
What does one drive have anything to do with the reality that the only reason Lance is still in the league is because of a 4th round pick investment and his salary being guaranteed… primarily the salary.
In all honesty if Dak and Rush went down they’d probably be better off scalping someone’s practice squad than actually playing Lance!

One drive ? That was just an example of a season of FG and stalled drives . Try concentrating . Other then 14 garbage points last night you think the offense is set ?

Well thank YOU for the online psychiatric evaluation!

You have embarrassed me, eh? Well...if that is what you need to tell yourself to make it through your day..by all means! Maybe you could perform a self examination on that.
you alright? you seem pissier than usual.

I do self examination every day.... its a must....you point?

What is the most likely outcome for Trey? Trade? Dak trade down the road and then Trey starts? Or he just fades away and never gets a shot anywhere?

Lol,
No! The offense needs something resembling the threat of a running game.
Not a QB that couldn’t play in a flag football league!
