We're better off with Allen or Dobbs than Lance. Darnold was going to leave for a chance to start somewhere.

We’ve only seen 2 regular season Lance games, and the only reason Darnold is starting is because JJ McCarthy tore his meniscus. Vikings were planning on handing him the job.

Lance is a bust. He lost the 2nd string job in dallas. He has zero foitball IQ

He also beat Purdy & Jimmy out for the job here before he got hurt.

LOL, he didn't beat anyone out. Purdy wasn't even in the picture and KS gave Lance the job on a silver platter. He came into camp and managed to look bad from the start and then got hurt. With this oline and Lance's inability to read a defense, he would have been roadkill this year.

To be fair, none of the QB’s under Kyle have ever looked good in camp. Purdy and Jimmy both really struggled too. I believe it’s because the QB’s are asked to test limits and do things that they are comfortable with while at camp.

Shhhh, that excuse is only allowed to be used on Purdy.

Actually this is untrue. The only reason Purdy made the team is he looked good early on. Purdy wasn't even supposed to make the team but as Shanahan said the way he looked in practice he couldn't release him. And neither Purdy or Jimmy struggled with the playbook the way Lance has.

No excuse, Lance was bad period. He couldn't even grasp the playbook. He can't even beat second string players. Even at Dallas TC he was bad.

The only thing Lance did to "earn" the job was be the #3 overall pick.

The team didn't even allow Garoppolo to practice in training camp/presesaon. The only thing they let him do was run by himself on a side field. You know super important stuff for a QB to be doing to get ready for a season.

The only competition Lance had was Nate freakin Sudfeld. Sudfeld is the only guy Lance "beat" for the job.

You constantly move the goal posts and now are just making **** up. Your shtick is tired, and you know it.

Others have addressed this, but what the heck? Never has a player been handed a starting QB job more clearly than Trey Lance. Garoppolo didn't play all preseason as we tried to trade him. Only as it became clear that Lance wasn't the guy did the team bring Garoppolo back in. Purdy was an afterthought who was kind of a shock to beat out Nate Sudfeld for the third spot. And Shanahan clearly didn't believe in Lance that season. That's why he kept running him, because he didn't think he could win with Lance throwing it.

As far as Lance, the distinction for preseason games really is important here. As a general rule, preseason games aren't particularly important. There aren't starting units, teams aren't game-planning, opponents may take dramatically different approaches to the game. But you can take away some things from the QB. Specifically, is the QB seeing the field? Are they generally making the right reads? Lance got the most playing time in the league this preseason, and the clear take away to both of those questions is no. He just doesn't see it.

I say this with absolutely no animus toward Lance. I didn't love the pick, but I really pulled for him as a Niner QB. It's not his fault he was the #3 pick, and his failure to develop does not appear to be a lack of desire or effort on his part. He's apparently a great guy who really cares about other people and was well-liked in the locker room. But some guys just don't/can't see it. Four years into his career, it's hard to escape the conclusion that Lance is one of those guys.

lmao people here still invoking Lance

some of you people deserve absolutely nothing

Wanted to give this its own post.

Finally, not that it makes a major difference, but Lance has three full NFL games, not two. In the first one, he struggled in a loss to the Cards with 15 of 29 for 192 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT and 89 rushing yards stat line. The offense scored 10 points. They averaged 25.1 PPG that year. In the second one, he had a solid game against the 4-13 Texans, going 16 of 23 for 249 yards and two TDs.

After Lance was handed the starting job, he was bad in the first week. He went 13 of 28 for 164 yards, one INT, and one fumble (which he recovered). The weather was a factor late, but it really wasn't early and he was still bad. The team scored 10 points. When Purdy came in as a rookie for that team, he averaged 33.6 PPG.

The next week, Shanahan ran Lance as many times as he called passes - because he rightly questioned Lance's ability to read the defense and deliver the ball to the right receiver accurately - and he got injured when he showed an absolute lack of awareness about how to protect himself while running.

Again, I'm not meaning to pile on the guy, but he had his chances and he wasn't good in them. Why you would continue to bemoan his loss while criticizing Purdy relentlessly is just beyond me. Purdy is obviously so much better.

And it isn't like he made the most of his opportunity in Dallas losing to Cooper Rush. The headlines in Dallas are pretty brutal. I don't think it was such a bad move by Dallas. A 4th round pick isn't the world to give up if it fails
