The Lance Era begins today

[Risen Star]

The Cowboys play their first preseason game today against the Rams. Trey Lance is expected to get the majority of the QB snaps. It’ll be the first time seeing him in a game since Dallas traded a fourth-round pick for him last August.

Lance: “I’m just looking forward to playing ball again. I’m going in this game the same as I’ve gone into every game my whole entire life, college, high school, whatever. I don’t put too much extra (pressure) into it. I’m going to play. It’s not like I’m going to play any harder than I have in the past or not as hard. It’s a big game for me, big game for us. I’m excited to go out and play well.”

Mike McCarthy: “I’m real excited to go compete with him. … Just like any young quarterback, particularly if you look at his flight here, as much drop-back passing opportunities that I can give him I think will be a benefit. … He doesn’t cut any corners. He has a great work ethic. Just like anything, you want to see one of your guys go have some success, because he’s definitely put the work in.”

2025 starting QB era begins.

I expect after this performance the starting job will be wrestled away from what's his face and 10 years of excellence at the position follows.

Cowboys! in your face.

Indeed.

 

[Risen Star]

Indeed.

You got a good eye for talent, Art.

if he struggles in preseason against vanilla defenses, the lance era may never get off the ground. He needs to light up the rams. Still looking at the 2025 draft for answers.

D Day for Dak over Dallas fans.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Let's go Cowboys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2025 starting QB era begins.

And if it happens another new era will begin - the current Dak-stans who are constantly calling everyone else 'hater' will become the new breed of 'haters'.

What a role reversal this will be...

His career with Dallas started last year.

Lets hope it doesn't end today too!

I hope he lights it up just like Dak did against San Diego 10 years ago.

Dak played his first pre season game in 2014? Even though he wasn't drafted until 2016?

I didn't realize college athletes were allowed to play in NFL pre season games before they're drafted.

Great. I hope so…what’s the chance he’s any good? All I’ve heard so far is bad stuff about the guy.

If we got lucky again at QB that would be nice.

The only ones saying it are the Dak-stans, so take the source with a grain of salt.

 

[Mikexike]

Qb2 coming soon.

 

[Ranching]

I hope he plays great, but I don't wish bad on another player while doing it. That's juvenile and stupid if you're a true fan of the team. Go Cowboys!

Dak's first game in preseason that year was against the Rams, wasn't it?

 

[SlammedZero]

Light it up Lance!!!
