Lance still working on his game

Let's not ruin all the progress by throwing him out there too early.

Let's take a look next preseason and then put him back on the shelf. That fruit doesn't ripen until 2025.

The greatest enemy of player development is impatience.

Let’s admit, in deference to the NFL, Trey Lance is as useful as breasts on a fish. Let’s “take a look” at someone who at least has been playing quarterback, at some level, before considering a known failure to take the reins of the Cowboys.

Especially for a quarterback that had his learning process broken up in it's early stages.

Throw him out there too early? This his 3rd season. He won’t be playing anyway this season, he’s not the backup. The only way he’ll have any chance of developing is by playing. The longer he’s on the sidelines, the less likely he’ll become a solid NFL QB. If he doesn’t get on the field until 2025 he’ll be stale. The Cowboys may look to trade him by then, because he’s not going to be happy as a backup. He wants another opportunity to be a starter and that won’t likely happen with the Cowboys.

If nothing else this season should confirm the value of QB depth. Been fortunate this year for Dallas but around the league this has been the year of the backup.

Once a project always a project. I marvel at the time expended on this player who one day, if he works hard enough, will be a JAG.

Lance reminds me of of the bloke who doesn't produce much or get skills but is holding out for a management job.

Are the Cowboys allowing Trey Lance to private train off campus during the regular season? Why have a QBs coach?

I see you are a warm and fuzzy kinda person.

insert him into the 2016 Dak Prescott offense it was built on simplicity and effectiveness for mobile QBs. It limited reads, improved vision and separation. Then develop him slowly and keep expanding. I think the guy would be deadly.

Maybe for another team.

You mean like the one the 49ers have? It did not work out there. They loved him and traded the world to get him. Why would it work in Dallas.

No, the 49er offense is as much more complex.

The goal, as far as I was concerned, was to bring in someone to challenge and ultimately replace Rush.

I never had any illusions about Lance ever being our starting QB except in the event of an injury to Dak.

They said the same thing about Romo and luckily Parcells didn't cave to fan pressure.

by 2025 he’s a free agent though, that’s the issue. Unless you see a total dak collapse and jerry decides to move on which seems very unlikely at this point you’re basically developing lance to try out for another team.

That theory has been proven wrong so many times by Cowboys over the years.

I don’t know I’m looking at the Green Bay quarterback situation. It was nice for him to sit behind Rogers for two seasons.

And how exactly do you think he’s going to play before preseason next season? Derrr
