Here is a video breakdown by JT O'Sullivan of Trey Lance's performance against the Texans. Great stuff. The breakdown really shows why Lance is so frustrating. He's making a lot of mistakes but the he's also making some big time plays. Fans are right to be frustrated because Lance isn't there yet.

Fans shouldn't be frustrated over a 21 yr old rookie who's played in 2 games since 2019. No one should expect him to be a finished product.
my takeaway from that breakdown is he's doing pretty damn good for a kid that needs reps…a lot of his issues are completely correctable with more time.
I feel like you shouldn't be if you used like a 2nd round pick for the guy. But 3 firsts and a third is the reason I am personally frustrated with Lance at this point in time.
By Frustrating I mean that because he's so basic right now it's hard for the coaches to want to put him out there. He also shows dynamic playmaking at the QB and opens up the field for the receivers with his big arm and legs. Frustrating in that fans want him out there, and I think I do too, but that with Jimmy there playing pretty well it's a hard decision to make. Lance is the upside play.
I think folks quick to criticize really should watch the video first.
Good news is this season is over and Jimmy is already gone. So we get a full year of Lance next year. Time to see what 3 first round picks gets you for a full season. It better be playoffs every year, a couple SB wins and a franchise QB for over a decade.
Hopefully it gets us a lot more than the constant disappointment that $125 million and a 2nd round pick got for us.
Playing in the Super Bowl seemed worth it to me. But I just enjoy watching the niners win and be competitive in the post season. Now we can go back to hoping and praying while struggling to get to .500. Just keep telling ourselves we have a lot of upside and after another year of experience next year might be good.
Came here to say the same. Jimmy got us to a Superbowl, he was worth it. I'm ready for Lance to be the starter, but I will likely never get over how hasty Kyle and Shanny were to blow such a massive amount of draft capital to move up pre draft for an inexperienced project QB. We should have taken whoever was there at 12 or used a single 2nd or 3rd to move up a spot or two to get someone on draft day. I realize that YOU CAN'T JUDGE THE KID AFTER TWO GAMES, but to me, a QB who wasn't able to overtake a so-called below average QB in training camp or when he got a chance to start in week 5 it's already proven to be an over-pay.
Yeah 3 first round picks needs to be for a can't miss guaranteed franchise QB, someone with the Manning name or similar. For a raw project that has little football experience it is a bit silly but holding out hope he lives up to expectations. If it were just your normal first round pick I could see the patience and wait and see approach. But for that cost it better be a Lambo or Ferrari. Time will tell.
Agree with you Reign. I wasn't a fan of the trade or who they picked at the time, due to only starting one year in college. But after seeing him play, it kinda won me over a little, time will tell how good he'll be. One thing is for sure, with the way he played vs Houston, 9ers could trade Jimmy no problem, use that money and already add to a stacked team.....I'm hoping CB and maybe Christian Kirk next year.
Agree. I'm hoping they draft a day three QB with a similar skill set to Trey to develop behind Trey. You can have a guy like Sudfeld be the veteran on the practice squad - if the covid rules are still in effect. Mahomes was pretty set in his second year and my hope is that Trey is along the same path as Mahomes in his development at this point. We shall see next year, but Jimmy will be injured again next year, if the pattern of every other year, he's healthy and the off years, he's injured. Whoever is getting Jimmy is getting a QB made of glass - so to speak - next year.
Odd , isn't it that Trey played 2 games in relief of Jimmy, early on, and then missed 2 weeks of practice due to injury, and one of the injuries was a finger that just recently, folks hoped was okay for him to play. Either we are cursed, or maybe our/Kyle's type of O play is somehow facilitating injury to QBs, RBs, and OLs.
Just an observation. BTW, I hope Jimmy is okay to back Trey up if he gets injured.
To a certain extent, I think it's scheme. Our OLinemen are very small and light, and big DLinmen - in a sense - can over power them with a bull rush right into the QB. Kyle likes athletic and light OLinemen for that zone run. Similarly, sometimes Kyle's offense wants the QB to stand in the pocket and throw the ball and take the hit. There is a reason that Kyle liked BeatHard, and it's because he was tough and could take the hits. So partly scheme, also the competition. I think this division is the toughest in football, with some great athletes, and they will knock the stuffing out of you in this division. Aaron Donald, Chandler JOnes, Wagner are some of the elite defensive athletes in this division and they are outstanding. Injuries, to a certain extent are random, but some (Like us) are less random than most.
He paraphrased just like I did.
