Yes Jimmy is probably the worst remaining QB in the playoffs. Yes he's inconsistent. BUT Jimmy with this team and HC make SF a hard out every week. The unit as a whole makes this team competitive every damn week. Jimmy is part of that.
This was his year and that was never gonna change unless he got hurt. This was also the off season to go in a different direction at QB past 2021. That was my point for the past year. Could I be a little blunt in regard to what Jimmy is in my eyes, sure. Didn't mean I hated the dude or think he's the worst QB in the league.
My debate for the most part, was how much he was getting paid during a covid cap season. He's currently the 2nd highest paid player in the playoffs (only behind Rogers) let's keep s**t real here and understand that's stupid. Is what it is now, Kyle and Co wanted to go this route and for the most part it's paid off. We will see what Lance is BUT I f**king hope the Jimmy can do no wrong and he's the QB so you support him crowd, apply that SAME energy to Lance....at least for the 1st 4 years of his career.

Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs; $45 million
Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills: $43 million
Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys: $40 million
Deshaun Watson, Houston Texans: $39 million
Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks, $35 million
Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers: $33.5 million
Jared Goff, Detroit Lions: $33.5 million
Kirk Cousins, Minnesota Vikings: $33 million
Carson Wentz, Indianapolis Colts: $32 million
Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons: $30 million
We've been down this road, he only counts cap cash paid this year even though no other metric counts cap cash in a single year as any metric.
Why wouldn't we use cap cash paid this season? Isn't that the whole point? How much has he counted against the cap for this season?
No because highest cash cap does not equal highest paid.

So you'd give up the playoff run we're having right now at this moment for Lance to get his rookie mistakes out of the way?
That's crazy dude..
