Troy Aikman went 0-11 his rookie year in 1989.

Did the Cowboys deserve a qb that could win more than 0% of his games completed?

Here's what you're ignoring, those guys were on terrible teams, particularly Aikman and the Cowboys. None of those examples really apply.

We saw what Purdy was able to do as a 7th round rookie coming off the bench. That at minimum is the standard that Lance should be held to going into his third season on an NFL roster.

Draft a QB and get them for 5 years on a rookie deal or trade the pick for a guy that will be on Year 3 of his rookie contract but is basically as raw as your average rookie.

Can I get a hell no?

HOW do you know Houston likes the QBs coming out this year over Trey?

So with Purdys injury, next season rest in Lance hands.

Oh lord...

Lance better step up his game big time.

We have ave too many good players for window to be closed.

The way I see it TL isn't standing out there by his lonesome in Apr/May etc.

We are getting another QB, it's that simple. One man isn't a QB room and JG not under contract, BP injured for a long period.

How do you know they don't? If I'm another team, I'm not trading anything more than a 2nd rounder for a guy that is very much still a project but entering his third year. I'd roll the dice on Bryce Young and CJ Stroud and having up to five years to develop them.

Lance's greatest value by far is to the 49ers, which is why he won't get traded.

Kyle made it clear who won't be standing with him though.

49ers need to pay Brock good moneyz $$$

They can't while he is on his last pick rookie contract even if they wanted to. Same as they have to keep paying Lance millions to be Purdy's assistant

Gonna be a long season for you, my friend.

Yep I will have to listen to a lot of belly aching about "why won't they start Lance. They just got to give him a chance". It is going to happen all season long while Purdy is balling and Lance is warming.

If Trey suffers another injury, I'm confident in Purdy coming in again and thrilled we have him on the team. In that scenario, I'm with you and hope he is balling!

Lol it is not Trey's team. Purdy will be all fixed up and take up where he left off. Lance has only proved he can beat the worst team in the league but not the second worst. 49ers deserve a QB who can win more than 33% of their games completed.

Josh Allen was 5-7 his rookie year in 2018.

Did the Bills deserve a qb that could win more than 42% of their games completed?

Peyton Manning went 3-13 his rookie year in 1998.

Did the Cilts deserve a qb that could win more than 23% of their games completed?

Troy Aikman went 0-11 his rookie year in 1989.

Did the Cowboys deserve a qb that could win more than 0% of his games completed?

Unbelievable takes in here off of three freaking games that were non-consecutive. Lance pulling out the Chicago game to go 2-1 as a starter would have said no more about his career trajectory being great than going 1-2 says about his career trajectory being no good. The logic being used in here is worse than subpar.

Lol Lance is no Josh Allen. Allen played almost 3 seasons of college before his slow start in the NFL. Lance had 1. He is too inexperienced to be a starter in the NFL. He might make a good back up for say Lamar in a QB running offence but Shannahan's offence is no good for him as he take all season to decide to make a pass so Shanny will always run him between 400lb DLs till he breaks again.

No chance Houston would make that trade. Both Bryce Young and CJ Stroud have more experience and success than Lance has ever had and would be on year 1 of their rookie deal as opposed to year 3. Also, neither are coming off a major knee injury. As Jagged said, Houston would be the laughing stock in the league if they pulled the trigger on that deal. Its THAT bad.

Plus the Bills never had a roster like ours even before CMC.

Here's what you're ignoring...the point is someone is making career trajectory statements based off 3 starts being 1-2 meaning he is not good and won't be good. Insanely dumb logic being applied there.

Obv Purdy played great and should be used to compare to Lance when he gets more than 1 consecutive start under his belt. I think Lance...because of our stacked roster...would have won games still while he was getting acclimated to the NFL and by playoff time with a year of starts under his belt could then be the reason we win in the playoffs and years into the future as a top 5-10 QB. That was the whole play with Lance in the first place with this roster. I want to see that play out.

Let's not forget Purdy played lights out vs mediocre to garbage teams and was contained by Dallas to just 19 points when he finally played a top defense that could get real pressure. Which is why it was so frustrating he got injured cuz I wanted to see if he could play lights out in the title game and super bowl vs elite teams in the biggest of moments esp Philly's defense. Now we still don't know how Purdy would have played in that game.

I dont care if Lance lights it up against weaker teams....it's can he do so in the playoffs all the way through and win the SB. If he can't I won't want Lance either same as Jimmy and am fine rolling with Brock even though we still don't know about him either in the biggest of games.

Yup. In my mind, he shouldn't be near the GM / process. He should have no input. I mean this is the guy who said no thanks to TB12, we have TB12 at home MrFeelsGreat.

KS knows football as well as anyone on the planet from an X's and O's perspective. As a GM he is suspect. They are two different skills. Hard to get one right at the world class level, let alone two.

Why would next season rest in Lance's hands with Purdy back full go at training camp?

We are in the early stages, so news is perhaps still in flux, but I am hearing 6 months rehab

Whatever you think of Lance compared to Purdy, Lance will now have the advantage of OTAs and preseason practices to show where he is in his development. The truth is, nobody really knows what Trey Lance will be as a NFL QB. This will be his big chance.

I'm sure they will bring in another in someone else. But I doubt it will be better than what we've seen from Purdy.

Lance will needs to step up his game big time.

He'll be on year 3. Time so show he's worth the 3 first and 3rd that we're used on him. He needs to keep the window open. Too much talent on the team.
