Trey Lance, Jayden Daniels, Michael Penix, Bo Nix

I see what ur doing: If not Lance, then who genius?

But we have to approach this like a physician, not do something harmful just for the sake of doing SOMETHING, and remember the hypocratic oath:

First, do no ham

There is absolutely nothing wrong with having Lance as the backup on a reasonable 2 year deal.

Even though this isn’t true let’s go with your silly *** logic. Do whoever facts the 32nd worst pass defense is clearly all pro this year right? Bet you don’t even know who faced the 32nd worst pass defense do you lol?

Man, if anyone has proven he doesn’t know how logic works by his own words, it’s you.

I'm not overly thrilled with our $60mil per year qb.

Yawn…you must be bored because WTH?

The best thing for Lance is to come back for another year in Dallas and be the backup for Dak. The kid seemed improved from when he was with San Francisco. Would love to see an offense tailored to his talents but he looked solid vs a playoff team in Washington without CeeDee.

What are we, inquisitive lad, a training ground for NFL projects?

I just read this tidbit in this article.

“ Lance is only about seven months older than Washington rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. He's a day younger than Atlanta's Michael Penix and two months or so younger than Bo Nix in Denver.”

I’ve been on the fence about writing him off but this certainly puts things in perspective. Add this to the Darnold resurrection and we sometimes can be too quick to sunset these guys.

He needs a lot of game time experience to really know what he is. I wish there was a G league equivalent for the NFL. Just musing, but I wonder what the precedence is of a team loaning a player to the UFL during the summer.

A better comparison would be Paxton Lynch, Carson Wentz, Brandon Weeden, and Alex Tanney, QBs w/ huge athletic traits and athleticism that come from nothing schools. The huge majority of them do not work out.

I was not impressed by our $5.2M emergency athlete with potential.

No one thought the guy who calls him Trance would be. It would be like MountaineerCowboy being impressed with Dak, even for a moment. Fans with soapboxes love to stand on them at every opportunity.

Those seem fair. There's a good chance that he'll never work out, either. I just think he's had so much less opportunity than even those guys to get the game figured out that he needs to seek out playing time wherever he can find it. I mean, this was his fifth NFL start. It's tough to develop with that little playing time on top of just playing in 19 games in college.

 

[Whirlwin]

Not really. Lance has had many off seasons and training camps. The rookies hasn't . That's a huge difference

You would think so, but not. You’re not gonna get haze in the locker room, but you’re still not playing with the first string.

Just because someone didn't get to play with the first string all the time doesn't make someone who's been in the league for 4 years a rookie.
If that was the case, might as well call Cooper Rush a rookie.
