All I did was correct you're post claiming he's never played in a big game in his life. You keep spouting off HS
We are going into year 4 in the NFL. He has not played significant time going on 5 years now. He is a 3rd string emergency QB, who occasionally plays on the Scout team. THAT IS THE TRUTH!!!
they're afraid somebody is going to take the choker's place. LMAO
Trey Lance Derangement Syndrome. (TLDS)
I just don't see it. The more tape I watch, the more I like Trey Lance.
How would he have gotten better? He has not played. Sitting and watching does not make you better. If it did, I should be a NFL QB. I have been sitting a watching for decades.
I have seen every NFL he has taken in all22, he has the accuracy of JaMarcus Russell and the decision making of Jameis Winston. His raw physical traits are all there but he is very inaccurate and makes bad decisions and is slow at making those decisions. Those are the reasons he lost out to Sam Darnold (someone outside of the top 40 for QBs) for a backup job. MAYBE a coach can help get his accuracy up to a low end NFL level but it takes live reps to actually improve the speed of his decision making and he has 1 year of starting experience since High School. If he starts in 2025 he will probably be one of the worst, if not outright the worst, starters in the NFL. The NFL is littered with busts who had all the physical tools and none of the ability to execute. That is actually the reason he might struggle to catch on as a backup as they typically have all of the ability but none of the physical tools.
Exactly which is why he is not ready. Whatever team was going to play him had to be willing to basically treat him like the Jets treated Wilson where he just got reps despite being terrible (even if this year was not intentional). If he is starting he will not be good that year and probably not great the following year and you are hoping that he can click year 3 (kind of like Drew Brees did in his 3rd year of starting which screwed up the Chargers entire plan). This is a fine idea unless you are playoff team trying to take that next step and if the player is a rookie or 2nd year not a player who will be in their 4th or 5th year before this process starts.
No. Romo’s play was nothing like Favre’s. That’s the media myth and the fact you just repeat it means you fell for it. In Romo’s worst seasons he threw a total of 19 picks. The first was his first full season of starting in 2007, but he also threw 36 TDs. The other was in 2012 when the team had one of the worst defenses in the league. A 2012 team that was still 8-8 but trailed at some point in every game they played. This idea that Romo was a gunslinger and turnover “machine” was nonsense. Those things happened when he tried to do too much.
I think the Niners thought with all the talent around him they could take the pressure off him and give him time to develop. Exactly what they are doing for Purdy.
Seriously. It’s like they think that enough fans on forum who have had enough of Dak’s play in the playoffs suggesting it as a possibility will have some voodoo magic and will make it happen in reality.
For a 4th round choice????
And then Lance lost the backup job to Sam Darnold because of that. If there is a team out there will to take a shot on him next year, they basically have to accept it will be a bad year (so they probably want him on a 2 year deal) and have to hope that he can be NFL ready by his 6th season, or 2026. Whoever he starts for will have a QB who is probably the worst starter in the NFL and they will have to hope they can develop him into an NFL player and maybe he can be great but at this point the odds seem to say it is unlikely.
You kind of want your 4th round picks to be seeing the field. They are supposed to be the depth players or your low end starters but playing a position where he is not only not the backup, but in the spot where he is almost certain to not see a snap is a complete waste of a 4th.
That is why I think his best route is to go to Canada. He got a great rookie contract. He does not need the money. He needs the experience anywhere he can get it.
Any other position I agree with you. QB is different. Especially when the starter ahead of him is a proven choker.
“Throws a better ball”? Surely this has not escaped the coaching staff’s attention. Since Dak will someday not be the Cowboys’ quarterback why not now? Cut him, mitigate the inevitable cap hit, spreading it over two years instead of all at once or take the hit all at once. Jerry’s call. Don’t pick up Lance’s fifth year option, but make him QB1 and take your lumps. If he has legitimate talent, better arm and feet, it will be apparent by season’s end. At least allow the possibility that he is not as good as Dak Prescott and may never be. It is possible. In addition, pray wherever Dak ends up he does not win multiple playoff games in a single season.
Everyone from the fans to those who get paid to talk football have compared Romo to Favre. Even Favre said Romo reminds him of himself. Go waste someone else’s time.
