Lance is still raw but I’m excited for what he might bring to this team and I think everyone should be. I see far too many Dak fanboys already dismissing him due to how he “failed” in SF. He didn’t get a shot! Let’s give Lance a fair chance in Dallas and not run him out of town. I hope Dak has welcomed him to the team already. Show some leadership for a change!

Based off what you have seen so far whats the most logical answer to who will start in 2025:

Dak as he has been a top 10 QB in the league and the FO will extend him..
Trey Lance who has thrown less passes in his 2 years in the league than Cooper Rush...

I dont think this has anything to do with "Dak Fanboys" hey I hope trey Lance becomes a steal and goes out and takes this job and never looks back as he is 23 and Dak is 30 so that would be best case for our team..but pointing out the obvious hardly makes anyone a "Dak Fanboy"..jesus

At first I wasn't sure about this and thought Lance is garbage if Shanahan can't fix him. But I'm willing to take a wait and see approach to see if he can develop because he really hasn't had much playing time. It would be nice if he can replace Dak.

..lol.. Nah, Lance will be backup at best. Probably let go of Rush if anything.

But I see Lance bringing some versatility to offense. His mobility.

Is it that Lance did not get a shot?

Or.

Is it that the 49ers:
  • gave Lance a shot
  • allowed him to compete again after sustaining a season-ending injury
  • graded his possible return as a regression
  • decided it was best to trade him for future compensation
?

Why do some people not get the point that one of the best quarterback gurus in the NFL has given up on him

If MM hasn’t been able to fix Rayne Dakota, why would we think he can fix Trey Trey?
I think you mistake an RPO system working with system quarterbacks for a guru.

I know many Cowboys fans are thinking Lance as a project the Cowboys will put on the backburner for now. I don't think so. Given Dak's injury history, the Cowboys need to get Lance up to speed to, at the very least, be QB2. And I hate to say it, the Eagles exposed Cooper Rush and his limitations. If Dak goes down, Rush is not the QB you want starting long-term. So Cowboys fans should get ready. I can totally see Dak getting his job taken away the same way it happened to Romo. I get that Dak is only 30 but in terms of playing years, since Romo didn't really play until he was 27 and started breaking down in his 8th/9th season and with Dak is going into his 8th season, we should expect that there is a decent chance that Dak doesn't play all 17 games healthy.

Just get ready.....

He hasn't had 100 NFL pass attempts. The article is nice but Shanahan is on record stating that the finger issue from the year before was the setback. He also says he felt like he failed Lance.

If he ruins Prescott's career I'm willing to re-evaluate this trade.

His less than 100 NFL pass attempts came before his injury as a appointed status as a starting quarterback. The OP stated Lance did not get a shot. Lance got a shot. He did not get a second shot.

If you want to call 100 attempts a shot then go for it.
