Come on now CC, lets just take a breath and realize you only have two more weeks of JG torture and then you are free.

Whenever the date it there is zero chance he is on the roster on that date. At this point if some tragedy happened to Lance I get the sense Kyle would rather roll the dice with Sudfield.

Is it just a coincidence that Brady pulled this disappearing act following all the injuries to his Oline?

And I just heard that Wirfs left today's practice with some sort of core injury.

I mean there could be no O-line throughout TC, its not like the D-line can touch Brady anyway.

Hey, if half the starting QBs in pro football suddenly were to retire.. we would have a real shot here.

we over valued jimmy... lynch thought the rest of the nfl was stupid... people saw his limitations.. and was not going to give up high picks for him... the shoulder surgery excuse is just that.. lynch over valued our guy..... and here we are.. its just that plain and simple. cut him and move on for gods sake. no one is trading for him.. no one
no one overvalued jimmy lol

lynch did.. he thought the rest of the nfl was dumb but people saw jimmy for what he is. defend lynch.. but you will never convince me otherwise
oh CC..so you can't explain how he overvalued jimmy ? ok

i think it was reported that lynch wanted a couple of high draft picks for jimmy... if true.. that is over valuing. protect him. thats fine
that is not overvaluing.. refusing lower offers would be overvaluing.. we didn't recieve one offer

plus you forgot Jimmy's agent had free range to look for offers since March

as for JL, it's not protecting.. it's just common sense.. which is a rare thing in IA apparently

Maybe we can actually get a draft pick for Jimmy if thats the case.

That guy just wants nothing to do with the damn TC practices in the FL humidity.

Yeah I still think he plays, he doesnt need TC and basically calls his own plays anyways so it's not like there is anything new to install. Maybe he's doing it to avoid the dreaded "arm fatigue"

Fred, old people actually move to Florida because of the warm weather, they have a harder time retaining body heat. It's a classic senior citizen move. Please rethink and repost..

and you dont see a starting caliber QB being made available to a division rival often at all.

The comment was mine. It was logical. And you had / have no counterpoint.

I agree a starting QB will bring more insight than a positional player. But that's not the argument. The argument is whether said information will provide a significant advantage (i.e. victories). History shows us such information will not provide a significant advantage. You have not been able to provide a clear connection between the type of information a starting QB may be able to provide, and victories. There are far more examples undermining your position, than supporting it. And there are far more variables at play than you can isolate (which undermines both your argument, and mine).

this claim doesn't make sense. there's no real similar history to look back on. the former starting QB doesnt end up on a division rival often enough to make this claim. and the QB having more insight than a positional player is definitely part of the "argument"

i'd wager that if you asked Kyle, he wouldnt be happy with JG breaking down his philosophies to a division rival.

It's not really the philosophy of the offense that is in danger of being revealed by an ex-player, it's all the terminology for checks and audibles that would help the opposing defense. So if Jimmy were to be a Seahawk and spill the beans to Pete Carroll, the 49ers would have to revamp their terminology (and hand signals) when it comes to making audibles at the line of scrimmage. All the other stuff (play designs, scheme) is scouted and seen on film. I agree Jimmy spilling the beans would help SEA, how much depends on how much is different with the 49ers 2022 playbook.

Thl, don't worry.. we texted the '22 playbook to Jimmy. He'll never see it.

Agree 💯%, teams are so even that one or two plays separate a winner from a loser. There definitly is a advantage to having an ex-QB on your team giving you tips on his old team.
