Lance has had the better camp so better be a short leash for Brock after how he played today. Lance needed those 43 attempts far more than Brock so we could have more data points on his improvement or lack thereof since when else would he get those reps.
That would be a good poll question - how short is the leash - if we are 4-3 or worse and BP playing mediocre do we make a switch?
At this point with the 49ers approach here apparently, Brock better be Joe ****ing Montana and win us a Lombardi OR Trey better bust.
Yes. Base what you see in training camp and practice.
Oh by the way nick Mullens went 14-20 with 140 yards and a td yesterday. Lets get heeeem back preseason HOF
I don't worry about Brock's interceptions in practice and that goes for other QBs.
But you know very well had that been Lance it would be an issue for YOU and some others in here. That's part of the issue.
The other issue is the simple fact that if Brock is playing Trey cannot play in games that do matter to show us whether he's better or not. Some of you guys are fighting tooth and nail to still downplay Trey's clear improvement and refuse to acknowledge the different situations Trey and Brock found themselves in last year when each was called upon to start.
We saw some HORRIBLE throws from Brock to start the Seahawks rain game in the playoffs. The weather improved and he clearly did as well. What would've happened in Chicago when the weather was worse to start, got worse as the game went along and there was no CMC, no Kittle and even Mitchell went out early all while the OL played like garbage? Think he's the same player we saw later in the season? Does he seize his opportunity the same way? Or does the timing and circumstances of the opportunity matter?
