What I want to know is how did Jauan Jennings get that much separation vs Jimmie Ward.

spoke too soon LOL.

Dude, no 49er fan in their right mind should be rooting against JG. A good JG can turn in into a haul of picks from a team that has hopes, but lost their starting QB.

...and in the end, the rooting (positive or negative) has no say in how Jimmy's season goes. So win-win.

If things keep going in the direction they seem to be, it's only a matter of time before Trey takes over as starting QB. Which I a great thing for the 49ers.
That having been said, I really like Jimmy, the coaches like him, and his teammates love him. When healthy he has been the best qb we've had since Garcia. I say this to say I hope we don't trade him to some garbage franchise like the Texan's. The dude at least deserves to go to a team that has some chance at winning. I wonder if the Saints might make the move for him if Winston or Hill don't work out.

That's how it works. Teams generally don't get to have 2 top-shelf QBs. For that 2nd spot, money is spent elsewhere in the age of FA. Funny that you seem to think there are 64 legit starters as NFL QBs in the league when that's just clearly not the case.

I'm still a bit torn on what I would like to see them do. It would help keeping both QBs, especially with a rookie on the roster. Jimmy is being a pro about this so I have no doubt that who ever starts, Jimmy will still help out Lance. On top of that, you really don't know how a rookie QB will play. He can be the next Steve Young, but still struggle his rookie year. At least you know what you are getting with Jimmy if he stays healthy.

On the other hand, we have so many damn FAs next year, that some of the money we can roll over into next season will really help a lot in keeping some of the guys we want long term.

Either way, I don't think neither option is wrong. Both options have good benefits.

Going to give content to the wild question you initially had,...like it's a crazy concept or something:

"So head into the late/post season with sudfeld/Rosen as our saviors if trey goes down?"

Yes,...if it comes to where we can significantly upgrade another position with that contract money, that'd be the plan. If anything, it's the norm: subpar backup QBs. Nothing out of the ordinary like you're obviously suggesting.

Your seasonal hopes of a Lombardi is usually shot if your starting QB goes down.

Not if we have Jimmy G as a backup. The window is now.

They don't usually throw away a competent second QB they already have under contract, with almost no trade value, for pure trash, and start a rookie on a team primed for a playoff run. 😂

Perhaps,...but again,...acting like it's not normal to have a subpar QB or a developmental guy as a backup is pure lunacy.

If you have $20 Million in salary cap space you use it elsewhere to upgrade the team if you can. You certainly don't give it to the backup QB instead.

If we are stuck, we are stuck,....but it's more of a hinderance than a worthy safeguard.

Sooo,..go into the late season with a good starter and Rosen as a backup??? Yes,...that's as normal as it gets. Nothing to be alarmed about.

Lol, your logic is flawed. Just because QB2 has always been a subpar back up means we should follow suit because that's they way it has been.

look at your last sentence and then look at my post. My post is not about getting a solid QB2, it's about not getting rid of two starting QBs just to do it.

you said it yourself, the season is shot if sudfeld/Rosen is starting

I can't say the season is shot. You were discussing going late into the season with serviceable-at-best backups and a legit starter.

We dont even know if that's really the case with Trey, but that's the scenario you created. And if it is, I gotta tell you, it's pretty par for the course in the NFL. Just look across the league,...even at teams that've recently won Super Bowls.
