Sam appears to be doing well himself. Only thing I've noticed that seems to be different from the other two is I've read several reports of WRs making circus catches off his throws since the start of TC. Ideally, you want throws to be on the money/in stride. Hopefully those are isolated outliers and won't become a consistent thing.

Shanny seems to have a preferential bias toward Sammy, ez to see him earning QB2 which puts TL in a difficult spot

It's his first time throwing to these guys so maybe, about knowing their spots, and the timing. You gotta rip it before they break, it's anticipation, and the more you get in the work with the guys, the tighter all that gets

I bet Lance requests a trade.

For lance yes. For Sam no. How many seasons does Sam have under his belt? And Trey…how many nfl games has he played? Give me a break. The fact that Sam and Trey have similar stats in training camp is an indictment on Sam's abilities…. Yet the media keeps talking him up as a lock for qb2. Unless he shows different in actual games he is nothing more than a scrap project. I am not buying into the Kyle will make him great story. In Purdy and Lance I trust.

My post was in jest.

Do yourself a favor and worry less about training camp stats, lol.

I don't think we should bump TL up the depth chart, cuz he has fewer seasons played, so we are judging him more softly. That doesn't jive with me. No man. I am from the old school. I want winners . It doesn't matter, where you came from. It's about, who gives us the best chance, as QB2.

This is also Trey's 3rd year in the offense, and Sam's first. Before preseason I thought Trey would be well ahead at this point and that Sam would be playing catch up. Doesn't seem to be the case at all.

what evidence is there saying who has any advantage system wise ?

I mean the evidence is one guy has been here for two full seasons going into a third and the other is going into his first.

That of* course doesn't mean that Trey has a much better understanding of the offense or that he's going to play better in it. It would just be a piece of information that could explain it if he did.

Logic. Reason. Knowledge of football. Human capacity for memory. By any known measure, Trey should have much better grasp on the offense. If he doesn't, then he doesn't belong in the NFL.
