Lance was very disappointing

[Rayman70]

But, but he is young and a great athlete with potential.

potential is meaningless if you are slow with reads and inaccurate.

He hasn’t played in two years so not sure what everyone expected. It gives him some film to study and things to work on. He’s not near ready to be a starter in this league and not ready to unseat Rush as backup either.

 

[Bullflop]

I'll be hoping Lance manages to throw something other than dump passes in the games to come.

His reluctance to go downfield is depressing. At some point, he'll be obliged to open up his game.

The fact that his receivers dropped some balls that may have helped his cause didn't help, either.

To be honest he had not played in 5 years. He barely played in HS. He played 1 year in college.

That is it.

I will say this, he's better than Stetson Bennett

When Shanahan was willing to part with him, to a team in the same conference, after everything they gave up to go up and get him, I already knew all I needed to know

 

[thunderpimp91]

Lance looked like an extremely raw thrower who was well coached/prepared to play.

This was not a great performance but you do see a guy who understands the position and to my surprise was good under pressure for most of the game.

His big issues were the exact same as we’ve heard about since the start of camp. Very concerning that he’s still struggling with basic throws….almost everything in the flat was off, most passes downfield were overthrown, missed the TD on 4th down , etc.

The struggle I think the cowboys have right now is how do you make him the backup qb? I don’t think it’s that he can’t play qb at all in this league but you really have to have a completely different offense installed for Lance if Dak were to go down.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Dude, did you watch him throw the ball?

yeah, looks exactly like Dak when he has no time

 

[WillieBeamen]

Play where? He is no longer eligible to play anywhere he belongs.

At least more than 1 preseason game.


No way did he look bad to the point where fans should give up on him. Unless you have an agenda. Acting like he looked like Jameil Showers or Ben Dinucci is laughable.

 

[jwitten82]

Dont also forget to mention the dumb pass he threw instead of the hail mary with 4 seconds left in the first half.

 

[Chasing6]

I watched the receivers drop several passes. Sure, Lance sucked, but so did the rest of the offense. The whole damn offense, aside from the kicker, sucked.

You watched them drop 5 yard passes? Did you see the WR's catch balls behind them and over their heads as well? Or those don't count?

agree. Hès not trusting what he see's and hesitating. That usually means a QB is struggling to read defenses. Not good.

 

[WillieBeamen]

He's 24, with 3 seasons under his belt. He shouldn't look this bad. Rush didn't even look this bad as a rookie

You said Ben Dinucci looked better. Your opinion means nothing

 

[Chasing6]

Why exactly? Our fans keep talking about what only matters is wins. Stetson Bennett is a winner.

Uh, I just said Lance sucked today. What more do you want?

Are you insinuating that Dak's passes are ALWAYS 100% on target? I sure hope not.

There were some great catches made by some receivers.

 

[jwitten82]

I said they looked similar. Lance is not the savior

 

[Chasing6]

Did the defense suck? Did they give up 6 TD's in a row? Or did they keep Trance in the game?

I know it was the defenses fault for giving up the TD at the end of the game, otherwise Trance would have been a winner today.

 

[jwitten82]

Lance DiNucci is his name, and throwing inaccurate passes is his game

 

[Rockport]

At least more than 1 preseason game.

Dinucci looked much better.
