I'll believe Trey is starting when we hear it from Kyle or if he takes the field to start the game on Sunday. Until then, gonna expect JG is our starter even though it's in our best interest to not play him given his injury.

He isn't going Sunday - they need to just shut him down and name Trey the starter.

if kyle can get a 1% edge on houston by not naming trey the starter, then he won't name him the starter yet.

Yeah, I know.

In what direction is the penis leaning today? Towards Trey or Jimmy?

Trey.

Anone else bothered by the wording bere? Also how can any penis not lean towards Jimmy? Have you not seen the jawline?

There we have it.

YOu're specifically blaming Jimmy for the loss. You said it's a team game when he wins. There's literally nothing more to it. The hypocrisy is straight forward. That's pretty on topic there buddy. How is it not?

It's a team game when you win,...however,...certain players can specifically lose you games in football. Can you imagine a couple kick returns fumbled that converts to 14 points?

It's one of the unique things about a game like football.

Just more b******t hypocrisy. Jimmy bears a boatload of the responsibility for the Titans game, but as I said in another post, if the defense doesn't give up 9 of 14 third down chances, where the average gain needed for a first down was 10 yards, and gives the offense a couple of more possessions maybe there is a different outcome. Or as was the case back in 2011 where Kyle Williams muffs not one but two punts in the fourth quarter to let the Giants steal that came. That was another missed opportunity except on our side where the offense managed to convert something like 3 of 10 3rd downs. If they give themselves those extra possessions the Giants may have never have had the time to comeback or the Niners may have gotten an additional score to put the game out of reach. If its the TEAM that wins its the TEAM that loses. You can't have it both ways just to suit your own agenda.

The defense was without their top TWO CBs and two LBs. What exactly is Jimmy's excuse?

Do we need a generational QB to win in Kyle's system? Hope not. Because they are not coming here.

Tom: Kyle thanks for taking the call. I just want you to know how excited I am to play for you. I really enjoy what you are doing.

Kyle: Thanks Tom, that's very kind. You will love my system. You hardly have to think. I design every option into each play so all you have to do is work the progressions built into each play.

Tom: That's incredible. I can't wait to hit the playbook. I like pre snap more anyway.

Kyle. No need for that either. Hard hats call our assignments and shifts.

Tom: Wow. This is gonna be fun. I love to audible flag routes. I see a few opportunites in your tape and I can't wait to pull the trigger.

Kyle: Sounds great Tom. Thing is, every call is designed to set up our chunk performers, and we don't go off schedule. It's all in the game plan. You'll see.

Tom: Sure, really exciting. You've got it all set up. What's a 20 year vet to do.

Kyle: Exactly. Practically nothing. Just hand off and go through your reads. Quarter of our plays are scripted anyway, so no surprises.

Tom: I don't need 15 plays to read what the D is doing. Maybe I can help out there.

Kyle: Sure. McD has tape review on Monday. Bring your ideas there. Then we'll talk on Wedensdays walk through. It's all so easy Tom. The car practically drives itself.

Tom: Alright. Thanks for taking the call. My agent will talk to your agent and we'll go from there.

Kyle: You bet Tom. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Someone check on brodie

Jimmy is a plus NFL starter, with a singular elite trait. Problem is, our evaluation of "plus NFL starter" is only based relative to his peers. He is not a game changing quarterback where you immediately feel, no matter the pieces around him, that we have a shot at the playoffs and a super bowl. Not many QBs in the NFL are, and so I don't want to act like he is a complete failure because he's not that, but team should continue to look for one until they find the next Brady, Rogers etc. If we give Trey a valid opportunity and he proves to not be that guy either, and I'd hope we draft or sign another quarterback again

Ah, but you see that's the problem with generational talents, they tend to only come around once in a generation which, as I recall, is usually figured at about 25 years. Of course you also have 31 other teams looking for exactly the same thing which is a subset of the other problem which is that in any given year there are probably only four or five guys in the league who could meet the standard of the first part of your statement and for the past 20 years or so they have been pretty much the same guys, Brady, Rodgers, Brees, Wilson and Peyton Manning, maybe Roethlisberger when he was younger. Mahomes and Herbert have a chance to get there if they put a few more good years together.

Finding an elite QB is incredibly difficult. This franchise was fortunate that it managed to find two back to back but even then it took several years for Young to hit his stride. Unfortunately that seems to have led to a certain degree of entitlement among 49ers fans. They have come to think that they deserve a franchise QB which is why they have a tendency to come into forums like this and crap on anyone who doesn't meet their exacting standards. Most QB's these days need the team around them to help contribute to their success and yet that is viewed in here as a detriment, "Oh, the defense had to carry him, or the running game." That's why football is perhaps the ultimate team sport. It's not like you can have a Michael Jordon or Steph Curry come out and drop 40 points to carry you over the finish line. I get people's frustration with Jimmy, the Titan's game was probably a perfect example of his strengths and his flaws but generally speaking he has been more successful than not and that isn't a small thing in today's game.

I have no doubt that if Lance doesn't turn out to be the next Mahomes he will end up getting the same treatment as Jimmy has gotten with battle lines being drawn between his supporters and detractors who I will suspect will be the same people who occupy most of the space in these current threads, just with the roles reversed. Personally I will be rooting for him to succeed because I want the team to succeed I'm not sure why Jimmy doesn't get the same consideration from some of the people in here.

As an elite franchise we are most certainly entitled to and expect elite talent and elite performance. We are not ok with sub-par head cases that breakdown repeatedly. We are not ok with just a playoff appearance. We want championships. When the fan base accepts less than greatness they are actually contributing to the demise. If your ok with that keep making excuses for mediocrity. Keep writing your long winded diatribes of why we should be happy with players like Jimmy. Go ahead and explain how he is the best of the worst. I am not ok with it. I don't want the 49ers to continue down a path that leads to annual disappointment or worse …celebrations when we have a winning season every few years. Sorry that ain't for me or any other fan that witnessed the powerhouse franchise that Eddy D built.

Jimmy does not deserve the consideration you ask for because he personifies mediocrity. He will never lead a team to a championship. He just does not have the talent, mental fortitude or physical capacity to be the "guy". We owe him nothing because he failed to deliver the one thing we brought him in to achieve. His time has come to move on and destroy the hopes of another fan base.

Trey will get our support and we will be patient with his development but if he turns out to be like jimmy then yes we will demand better. If we don't then are we really fans?

Yeah, I know.

The plan is already working. The oilers will have to plan for both QB's until they know they don't have to so that will chew up time and resources.

Lol. This year it was supposed to be the offense that carries this team. Nobody expected us to be an elite defense. And the defense has more than delivered this year, especially when you take into consideration all the injuries we had on that side.

They played great in the first half, and the offense (more like Jimmy) failed to play complementary football. It's easy for all you to say Jimmy is a top 10 QB, then he needs to play like it, but all I hear is excuse after excuse from you guys when Jimmy stinks it up. You know you're completely wrong when even jonnydel says that Jimmy is the reason we lost.

Wait, what defense have you been watching? They've been alright. Nothing great.

In fact, I relate them as inconsistent as Jimmy. Sure, they'll get a TFL on first down, a sack on second down, but the give up a 3rd and 16 with ease. And Jimmy? Oh, he was 8 for 8 before he threw that pick in the endzone. Doesn't matter if you're piling up stats, if you don't put points on the board (or get a stop), it's all for nought. The defense has been just as inconsistent as Jimmy has been, and the fact that you can't see that lets the rest of us know your bias.

In additin, the defense has been quite bad at creating turnovers too. Couldn't even create one turnover against the Titans who were notorios for throwing picks. Of course Jimmy is the main reason we lost, but to sit here and say our defense isn't liable, when at the end of the game all they needed to do is get one stop for us to overcome Jimmy's horrible game, it's just not justifiable. Defense causes the Titans to go 3 and out, we're the ones with a chance to put ourselves in FG range for the win. But it didn't happen.
