Due to Lance's unfortunate injury JG stepped in and stepped up and won 70% of the games he started this year. Then Purdy took over and is undefeated.
Even if we do not win the NFC championship Purdy is starting next year. There will be no QB competition between Purdy and Lance as there does not need to be one. Purdy is so much more advanced than Lance right now that Lance will not even get a look in.
If Purdy wins tomorrow and wins the SB Lance will be looking for another home because he will get zero first team reps for years to come. You need to be more realistic and stop being such a Lance Tragic. That train has left the station and won't be coming back.
I'm super curious how the team and Kyle are going to talk about the starting position for next season once this season is over. I don't think they say anything about it initially.
i am with you that I think Purdy has locked up QB1 for next off season but you never know. It could definitely end up a competition but I feel like Kyle hated splitting reps. Lol
They will use the regular line of "everyone has to compete for their starting job in training camp". But Purdy will be the starter going into training camp and it would have to take extraordinary events for him not to be the starter game 1. That doesn't mean he couldn't lose his job with really poor play in the regular season.
Yeah, I see it similar. Brock is QB1 and Lance is QB2 at the start of the offseason. But the team will announce that it's in the teams interest to develop both QB's, and have that competition in OTA's and pre-season games to make sure QB2 can step in if QB1 can't. They will use the Injury Bug as a reason to give Trey as many reps as possible between the two QB's. Its' too soon to say whether or not Lance can be a starting level NFL QB or not. We just haven't seen much of him due to injuries.
Having said that, durability is and has always been an issue in the Kyle Shanahan offense. The fact that Lance got injured, though no fault of his own, of course -- still gets a ding in my book for his durability dimension. I view it similarly to Jimmy's durability issues. Jimmy's durability issues prompted ShanaLynch to draft Trey in the first place.
) is the tremendous depth we have now. Just look at the QB position. Due to Jimmy's injury, we got Bosa, we drafted Trey, and due to injury to Trey and Jimmy, we discovered Brock.
