Lance could be the starting QB by 2025 latest

[gimmesix]

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

Right. I don't really care what happens as long as it improves the team. If we win with Dak, then extend him. If we don't win with Dak and Lance shows the 49ers were wrong about him, then let's go that direction.

Most likely, based on what we've seen, we extend Dak.

Semantics?

The OP:


The OP and you are stating Lance did not get a shot because of his average performance during a short injury-riddled timespan, which prompted the 49ers to cut bait. Within this particular logic is the fact San Francisco made its assessment of retaining Lance long-term before, during and after he was given a shot to perform as the team's starting quarterback.

The semantics here is an attempt to alter the meaning of the phrase 'getting a shot'. The fact remains that rookies get their shot at starting from childhood into their adult playing careers in all manner of sports--after not accumulating ANY amateur or professional statistics. Zip.

Yet, Lance's time in San Francisco is being framed as so inconsequential that he did not get a shot, even though he won an opportunity to play as a starter. Semantics is omitting his opportunity.

If he would have said "only had 100 attempts" instead of "get a shot" the point would have been the same. Said opportunity was truncated by injury. It seems pretty obvious that is what he as getting at.

There is not a large enough sample size to evaluate Lance's career.

Like I said the word choice might have been poor but the point as not.

Smart move giving up just a 4th for a QB that has first round ability; albeit yet untapped. The Cowboys wanted to draft a developmental QB back in April but the guys they wanted were gone. Lance is just 23 and even has (limited) NFL experience that a rookie does not have.

Lance is no more a gamble than Aiden O'Connell, Max Duggan, or Stetson Bennett would have been. The potential return on so little an investment is tremendous. If Lance flops so what? He was worth a try at the cost of a pick the Cowboys would have used on who? The next Josh Ball?

No it's not. If the 49ers gave up on him that fast after giving up all those picks to move up for him. (What three 1st and a 3rd) then trust me he doesn't have it.

The evidence concerning him is definitely more than just the handful of games he's played in. It's also all of the practices, preseason, etc.

I do wonder how much the injuries up to this point have played a role, though, and how much Purdy's play was a factor. If they had not found Purdy, would Lance be the starter or would he have crashed and burned given more opportunity?

I guess we get to find out here if he can elevate himself beyond what San Fran has seen.

He did not though for that assumption. It makes this sub-discussion weird since I simply stated Trey Lance got a shot, which is an undeniable fact.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

No it's not. If the 49ers gave up on him that fast after giving up all those 1st round picks for him then trust me he doesn't have it.

How do we know he doesn't just need a fresh start? Lance got hurt last year and that paved the way for Purdy to take the job and never look back. And the Cowboys don't need Lance to start, they just want to develop him and see if he can be a viable backup. The 49ers made the dumb investment. The Cowboys just gave up a 4th rounder.

I watched Purdy last season. I think he has an excellent opportunity of being The Man in San Francisco for years to come. Just my opinion.

 

[darthseinfeld]

You people need to realize Prescott has a 60 million dollar cap hit in 2024 and he will get extended to lower it

 

[CATCH17]

Dak’s is the starter for the next 2 seasons at least.

Lance needs work but upside is immense.


He’s only 23 so just chill.

Thus my comment about how you took the argument.

I think San Fran feels that way as well, which is one reason you trade the first-rounder who hasn't succeeded. Without Purdy, I think we'd know a lot more about Lance, but Purdy got on the field and did not give Lance a chance to get the job back. Kind of like Dakota did with Romo, even though we knew what Romo could do.

Lance may never succeed and I'm certainly not comparing him to Romo, but he got Dak'ed.

 

[Kingofholland]

You never know, but to claim he'll be the future starting QB is for those that like to always play the long shot that nearly never hits.

Though I agree he brings talent, his inexperience and limited growth thus far that would cause his prior team to give up on him says hell need a lot of work to even earn a backup job.

 

[stiletto]

Dak can't play forever and it's good they are trying to develop a young QB. No hurry to push Lance in there. Maybe put some Taysom Hill type packages in as well.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Dak fans think Jerry really traded for a QB3, but Cowboys fans know that's not how Jerry does business.

Jerry don't operate like that.

This is Dak's last shot and Jerry is sending a message.

 

[viman96]

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!

Maybe in the XFL

Fuzzy, I 'took the argument' due to the fact anyone saying Trey Lance did not get a shot are incorrect. It is not necessary to base arguments and counterarguments about Lance's potential in Dallas on falsehoods.

Lance got a shot in San Francisco. It did not work out. That's it.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

consistently kicking tires and taking fliers is the best way to eventually find your next franchise QB without selling the farm for a top pick in the draft. Maybe he's the one and maybe not, glad we are at least looking.

 

[SloMo_Joe]

Actually he could be starting QB by week two if Dak and Rush are injured.

Exactly you turned it into a semantic argument and missed the forest for a tree.

Lance is a terrible QB right now and in no way will supplant Dak. Maybe in 2 years if he develops a little. Dak will be getting an extension soon. You are going to have to deal with Dak probably 3 more years at least.
