On the flip side, if it somehow worked out like that, Kyle might not give af too much because he simply wants the best QB room he can get. And that mentality saved this season.

I don't see there being a competition at all next season. Lance will named starter by default, with Purdy backing him up.

No matter what?

If Purdy ends the season playing well and showing efficiency moving the offense then an open competition is the way to go imo. If Lance is out there making bonehead reads, the vets on the team will be wondering why they have to watch this while a better QB is sitting on the bench. Trent Williams ain't got time for that.

Right, and as fans we should all want the best QB leading this team. I don't think Brock will beat Trey in an open comp, but if he really is better then he's the guy I want starting. I trust Kyle to put the best guy out there.

Yeah. I think we have too much Invested In Lance for there to be an open competion.

Keep In mind, JG was the only decent QB we had on the roster back in 2017 and actually looked good too, so It made sense to give him a big extension.

Completely different scenario with Lance and Purdy.
Too much Invested on Lance for them not to hand him the starting gig imo.

We'll see, though.

If Trey is the guy, it will work itself out. If he cannot win a competition vs a 7th round Mr. Irrelevant than he isn't the guy we thought he was when we drafted him. You guys aren't afraid of a little competition, are you? Nothing against Trey and I hope turns out to be everything we thought he would be. But if Purdy gives us the best chance at winning a SB now, you cut your losses and move on from Trey when his contract is up.

Really? The FO threw $120M at a QB playing ad lib ball for 5 games in 2017. Anything is possible.

One could certainly justify it given the cost for Trey.

Either way, hopefully Brock makes it a very difficult decision. The competition would only elevate both. Use the Walsh psychology here.

Eh, we will see. Personally, I think handing the qb1 position is extremely foolish. Someone did explain to me a while back, though, "different times."
Still… foolish to me. But, I trust Lynch and Shannahan to do what is the best for the team. My opinion, like all those here, doesn't amount to anything.

Totally agree. Trey Lance is QB1.

Loving the ride though but it so early with Brock. We will have two good cheap QBs for a bit.

Yes if anything it keep Purdy hungry and gives Lance a chance to prove himself with someone on his heels.

A decision on Lance needs to come in the next couple seasons. Unless he somehow regresses, this is probably the way things will go.

If Purdy plays well through the playoffs, it should be an open competition between those 2 when spring rolls around. Nothing in this league is given. Everything is earned.

Brock has played awesome all. I won't call myself an expert QB evaluator nor will I pretend to have a crystal ball, but not talking floor, as Brock is clearly ahead of Trey due to time on field, I would bet that those who do evaluate QBs and 49ers front office probably feel that Treys ceiling is higher. Maybe much higher.

This will not be proven one way or the other until Trey has played a minimum of one year. 17 games plus and no injuries. Trey is green and OTAs will prove nothing. And competition will do nothing to advance his play time. He needs a minimum of one season to play. When all this starts late spring you can bet these words come out of Kyle's mouth. Just as they did for Jimmy. "Trey is our starting QB" next question. "Trey is our starting QB" next question.

Redzone. I don't believe Kyle. Kyle sucks.

So you are willing let the offense take a step back in order to let Trey grow into the QB position? I am not sure how guys like Trent, Kittle and Deebo would feel about that. I am sure that those guys feel the SB window is open now. If Purdy turns out to be the guy, why waste his best years riding the pine? This is all moot at the moment obviously. And like I said, Trey may hit the ground running next season and there will be no drop off in production.

I'm sure the 49ers want Trey to be the starter since he was a high draft pick and he has that high ceiling based on arm strength and mobility. I also believe that they like what they've seen from Purdy and will probably let the two compete in camp next year. Purdy already had an edge in experience and if he makes it through the playoffs his experience will be at an even higher level. Trey has a lot of catching up to do. It's possible that we could see some alternating at QB early next season.

His best years? I'm not sure he shaves yet Injuries aside, our SB window has been open since 2019 and will probably still be open in 2025 and beyond. If it takes a year to develop Trey then yeah, I'd be on-board.

And again, I'm thrilled Brock has came out and helped us. Love the kid. But I love Trey too and his canon arm. Let's just admit we seem to be in a good place and let it ride out.

You fell into the sunk-cost trap.

This kid has just to keep doing what he's been doing. It's all infront of him to be the greatest NFL story ever told.

Outside of the fact we spent a bunch of picks to get Lance, what has he done or shown where he deserves or is entitled to a chance? I'm not blaming him for this situation and I think he's a wonderful kid with tons of potential, but I haven't seen him show much ability to be able to unlock it. He is big and fast but idk if I consider him "mobile", he isn't quick or agile.

im not worried about a QB competition and if Lance is better, he should start. Overall in my eyes, Lance has shown next to nothing during his time here that tells me he is going to be a great quarterback - so I don't think Lance currently stands a chance to win an open qb competition vs Purdy - not with what Purdy is doing, and you'd have to think he is only going to get better?

A decision on Lance needs to come in at the end of next season when the team need to decide on exercising the 5th year option or not.

Yes. And Kyle and John has done enough. They won't be on the hot seat if they were to admit trading and drafting Lance was a mistake.

Are you serious? You asked and answered your own question there, bud.
