Los Angeles Chargers QB Trey Lance Thread

RG3? You mean with the Redskins? Dan Snyder? Ah yeah great example.^^
No, I´m talking about Kyle Shanahan the guy that is the boss of the 49ers and can build his roster how the f**k he wants.
You know the guy that called the Packers the day of the draft last year when there was this rumor that Rodgers wanted to leave the Packers.
So the guy that was hours from choosing his QB in the draft and still took time to call the Packers for Rodgers, is the guy that would surrender because of all mighty Jed York and John Lynch? Yeah sure.^^

-media speculates Lance was forced onto Kyle
-same media shows Kyle excitedly drawing up plays specifically for Lance after the smokescreen workout with Justin Fields

Can we just fast forward to the season and give him his reps so he just has his chance to put all of this to bed

What a coincidence that Trey Lance is underwhelming and also that nobody has ever heard of Matt Lombardo

See RG3.

And I don't think it was forced on him at all but I do believe there were some promises made if trey doesn't work out.

Kyle wasn't the HC in that situation, wasn't his team and yet he got his way and got Cousins in the fourth because he didn't want RG3.

Florio talks about this all of the time. These no name people who have a twitter account follow zero standards and don't care about what they post being true or not. Simply posting something whether it's incorrect value of a contract, fake trade or FA rumors, or fake player news, it doesn't matter. As long as it increases traffic they achieved their goal.

Welcome to social media. We all say stuff on this forum but it's mostly opinions. We aren't trying to pass ourselves off as some kind of insider.

Florio does the exact some thing all the time. All social media youtubers, pod casters, so called journalists, post 'bait clicking' headlines to get engagement. This no-name tweeter got everything he wanted. It's f***ing crazy how this 'rumor' posting has become the norm. I wouldn't even call them rumors. Our famous 49er 'journalist', who shall not be named, is a master an groundless headlines. I can't wait for real football news.

You don't trade all that draft capital for Mac Jones. No one else wanted him. Kyle wasn't forced into anything.

Shouldnt have traded all that draft capital for any of them if we're being honest

Thats what 99% of what we all type is anyway right?

Perhaps. Certainly don't do it for a guy with limited upside. Which is why Bears moved up for Fields not Mac.

You can't say this without seeing how he plays / how his career turns out. It's possible, and probably likely, too much capital was given up for Lance. But it's also possible Lance turns out to be worth the cost. It's also possible he turns out to be worth far more than what they gave up. Time will tell.

If Jimmy is still healthy on the team and there is a fair competition, no way Lance beats him out.

I can say this because I didn't want to trade up for any of them. Don't get me wrong I like a few of the QBs and think all 5 can win some games especiallyif they were with Kyle. I'm just not one that believes in franchise QBs.

Debatable. But while we're playing "if wishes were fishes", then if we had a good QB in '19 and '21, we'd have 7 trophies in the case.

Should've extended Jimmy. He just needs a couple more years to learn this system!
