He got the team 3 points so he wasn't that terrible. Maybe if the team scored nothing at all you could make a case. How many times has the team scored only 3 with Jimmy? Plenty of times, do you consider Jimmy a terrible QB? And that's from an 8 year veteran

Fwiw, I always come back to this in regard to conversations about Lance's speed. Personally, I think indecisiveness has factored into this more than a natural lack of speed, but 🤷‍♂️. pic.twitter.com/mHGuJMnDln

Interesting. I wonder which play he was measured on that. Cause once he gets going, he def is fast. I'm guessing 4.5 speed or so. I just don't think he's very quick or agile, at least not on designed runs. He seemed to do better scrambling when it wasn't a designed run.

I think you're right on all that.

Like Kap (was), he has good straight line speed imo

Yeah, Lance is closer to Kap in terms of athleticism.

Although, Kap did have that elite second gear in the NFL, that I've yet to see from Lance.

With it being Chargers week let's throw it back to Colin Kaepernick taking it 90-yards to the house. It's the second longest TD run ever by a quarterback

The best part about this play was Eric Weddle thinking he was gonna tackle Kap in the open-field, while being flat- footed 😂 pic.twitter.com/IgOw84JxQp

Sounds similar to the first half the following week

3pts in any half is terrible. I don't care if you're mahommes. It happens. Montana lost 49 to 3. Just don't use it as an example of not being terrible.

1. Brock Purdy is QB 1 this year (2023)
2. Shanahan loves Brock Purdy
3. Shanahan has never spoken about a 49er QB the way he had spoken about Purdy
4. Purdy is the man (at least for now)
5. Purdy received basically no reps as QB 4 (he took Nate Sudfeld's job) last summer
6. Purdy somehow learned Shanahan's complicated offense in his rookie year without reps
7. Purdy played exceptionally well in 2022
8. Trey has not played well in the NFL
9. Trey has very little experience playing football
10. Trey had many skilled players on offense when he played for the 49ers
11. Trey has not looked like the athlete we expected
12. Trey has been given many opportunities to be QB 1
13. High draft picks are given more opportunities than low draft picks
14. Trey could not beat out Jimmy his first training camp despite the coaching staff desperately wanting him to.
15. Trey could not take Jimmy's job in 2021 when given the chance
16. Purdy took Jimmy and Trey's job when given the chance
17. The team signed Jimmy as a backup in 2022 after casting him out like the plague
18. Trey's shortcomings likely caused the team to retain Jimmy in 2022
19. If Trey had Purdy's rookie season he would be considered the team's "franchise qb."
20. If Purdy had Trey's rookie season we would cancel the "Mr." in "Mr. Irrelevant" (he would be just irrelevant)
21. If Purdy had Trey's first four starts the Team would have benched Purdy
22. If Purdy played the way Trey has played the team would not have made the playoffs in 2022
23. If Purdy completed the percentage of throws that Trey has completed he would be benched
24. Purdy would not be given the number of opportunities Trey has been given had Purdy played like Trey has played
25. If Purdy played like Trey has played he would not be QB1 in 2023
26. If Purdy played like Trey has played he would probably not make the team in 2023
27. Wanting Purdy to not be ready for the season so Trey can start is an asinine take
28. Purdy is the best QB on the 49ers roster right now
29. More recently Shanahan has spoken fairly highly about Trey
30. Hope that Trey can be a franchise QB is purely speculative
31. Trey is fighting to be QB 2
32. Trey failing to beat out Darnold will be a bad sign for Trey's NFL future
33. This thread is crazy

Agreed. Trey has gotten one opportunity to start and get serious play time and he got injured after a disappointing performance in the opener in Chicago in garbage conditions. They said right from the get that Trey was going to sit a year.
