So are you even more hyped up for Dak to fail so bad this season. So you can start on a Lance for QB.
I have not seen you comment on this too much lately. But then again I been super busy the last month, so may have missed it. :laugh:

What are your thoughts on Lance? Can you give us an analysis.

For me I love this trade. Now what will Jerry and Stephen do. Not this season, but going into next season. There will be many of interesting discussions and arguements from it, as it has already started.

I really would like to see him play at some point this season, but not due to injury.
Lance isn’t Dak.

That’s all that matters.

Why does this matter to you so much. It is at least the second time you posted this with on 5 posts.
It means nothing.
This has been an ongoing story ever since the trade was made. I’m not the only one posting about it. It’s all over social media and this board. Those two posts are the only times I’ve mentioned it. Fans have started threads about it, go complain to them. :thumbup:

Mike has more to worry about. He's worried about how dak will play without his BFF. Now a new Sherriff is in town. I see a down year for my dak. I hope the team can carry him better with all this pressure on him. Go team.

If this kid has to step in for some reason to play and plays well, all the people criticizing Jerry for not asking Dak if he’s allowed to add solid depth to the QB position before hand will disappear. Suddenly that same crowd will come and say “I always supported this decision…” yadda yadda
Well, he hasn’t played well for 3 years so yada ya da ya da.

I am more excited to see how the defense can be elite, and help, than seeing the offense.
Maybe setting up short fields for the offense will help.

Lance hasn’t been nearly as bad as people make him out to be either.

If he had to play for us we’d be fine.
Putting lipstick on a pig? He’s sucked so far. Hope MM can work his magic and coach him up for a draft pick.

Jerry said he didn’t tell anyone about the trade including McCarthy until after they made it. That’s what started it. It’s been burning up social media ever since.

Exactly. Way too often something gets posted and fans run with it. 99% of the time it is negative as well.
People are too lazy to check out the facts for themselves. Nor will they believe it when it has been debunked.
They are not lazy- it just fits their narrative and they want to spread their narrative regardless of the facts

Man, I really hope he wasn't misquoted after seeing Lance in the shower.

And just what was Jerry to do. Tell SF hey wait, let me consult with Mike and Dak. Then lose out on a great trade.
This is why Jerry is the GM.
Any GM would have done the same thing.

Look at Rodgers having a baby fit when they drafted a QB. They didn’t consult him. Should they have?
No one whined about that.

Anyone with a brain knew this was going to happen. I predicted it immediately after the trade. And you ain’t seen nothing yet. Just wait until Dak has a bad series or throws an int that all QB’s do.

You would think Jerry has more than one phone line where he can make a call to McCarthy while he’s still on the line with San Francisco. It’s no big deal that he didn’t tell Dak. I’ve never heard of a GM not informing their HC they’re going to trade for a QB. As for Aaron Rodgers, he’s been around a long time and has established himself as one of the greatest QBs in NFL history. If you’re going to draft a QB in the first round you would think he would be told about it. Dak doesn’t need to be informed that we traded a fourth round pick for a bust to compete for the backup job. Maybe Jerry should’ve contacted Cooper Rush. lol

You believe Dak has reached his ceiling, which is very probable.
His ceiling is probably a little higher. I am saying I don’t think Dak is one of those players who need a lot of extrinsic motivation.
