That Kroft overthrow was more on Kroft than it was on Trey. Kroft is just slow and unathletic.
That's coming from a Jimmy "stan".

What?

As to the throw, it was five yards over the head of Kroft. Every commentator I've read or heard placed the blame on the throw.

If Jimmy gets traded to Dallas, watch Trey play better without worrying about Jimmy waiting to take back his job 🤣 things can go both ways.

Looks like it's now or never.. don't really see another team needing Jimmy this season even if their starting QB goes down seeing what already happened in week 1s games..

I agree with this 100%

If Lance cannot deal with the reality that a Super Bowl contender needs a quality backup behind the starter, he needs to develop thicker skin. Prior to JG redoing his contract, there was nothing but complaining about the lack of depth behind the "very inexperienced" Lance. Now we have what we need to assure a good run to the playoffs even if Lance is hurt. Time to set the excuses aside and recognize Lance will continue to make mistakes, and some may cost us games, but being on a good team with a quality backup should not excuse anything on his part. Garoppolo has been an Alex Smith presence to Lance. This is not a Rodgers/Farve deal where the QBs hated each other.

Agreed with the bolded. Trey's struggles are due to lack of reps, not because he's having to look over his shoulder.

Cant seem to read a defense pre-snap and can't get past his first look.

It's not looking good, you can have all the physical gifts in the world but if you have a 🥔 for a brain.....that can't be fixed.

Hell NO. Trey is way more accurate with his passes than Krap. Trey is a stronger runner than Krap. Trey actually goes through his progression before throwing the ball unlike Krap. Trey stays in the pocket and passes the ball if it's a passing play and doesn't take off running unless necessary unlike Krap. Trey is 110% more mature than Krap ever will be. Trey has good character which Krap will never have. Those strong positive attributes will serve Trey in the long run in the NFL unlike a fraud like Krap who was replace by Blaine Gabbert, never made 1 Pro Bowl, got Harb fired for betting on Fool's gold over a steady QB like Alex Smith in his prime and didn't earn the QB1 position, choked in the SB, and raise race issues for greed and $$$$ knowing he has been exposed for his shortcoming as a QB in the NFL, Krap is Krap and he got exposed and got exactly the Karma he deserved, never to be seen in NFL again.

Krap_er_pick was a better runner and thrower than Tr_EXCUSES. Certainly a better runner by a long shot. Much more explosive speed. It's not close.

Jimmy G is a better QB than both of them.

Jimmy G for T.Pollard and a 5th. Dallas is desperate for a QB to save their season and we need a good RB. Pollard in a KS system could be special.

Theres no way we are trading jimmy. Hes insurance for trey. If trey keeps laying stinkers jimmy will come in soon and save the season, that's why we kept him.

I love jimmy G. Dude kept us competitive. Y'all ungrateful. Ima roll with trey since we picked him up but man it's depressing as hell watching a rookie figuring it out. Brings me back to 2005 Alex smith type s**t.

I expect trey to have a similar arc

We are f**ked if this is the case.

People keep referring to him incorrectly as a rookie. He isn't.

He is as far as playing time goes. That includes his college days.

That's what happens when a guy is as young as he is, he was actually younger than Alex Smith by one day in his first start than Alex and Alex played a lot more college games than Lance.

Alex's problem wasn't lack of talent. It was completely botched handling on a horrible team with a bad coach. Trey won't have that problem. I do think he'll be a lot better a lot quicker than Alex but 2005 Alex Smith was as lost as can be. We don't have that with Trey.

Trey only played 1 game his senior year because of Covid. I wonder how much more prepared he would be if he had played that year. He certainly wouldn't have been as rusty. The 49ers have never drafted a QB that had so little experience. The fact that they saw enough raw talent to still draft him that high despite the lack of experience says a lot.

This week will be his first consecutive start in 3 years.

No he isn't. For example if he balls out he will not be eligible for ROY. Sure he had minimal college work who cares? That was known to KS and JL they picked him anyway. They obviously don't see it as much of a deterrent or they could have not selected him. He is massively improved from year 1 when he was moving to SF and learning the names of all the ppl in the bldg. He needed that redshirt year imo.

You forget about what Jimmy said when he thought someone would trade for him or that he wouldn't be on the team anymore? He said he wouldn't wish it on anyone (him and Lance situation). I don't think the picture you are trying to paint is really what it is IMO

Kroft is trash and Trey rushed that throw when the d line man was coming at him before he let it go a bit too hard, now if that was Kittle instead maybe just maybe there is a chance because after all, Kittle is a top 100 player Kroft is garbage.

The team sorely needs Kittle, Jimmie Ward and now Mitchell back asap for best chance to win on Sundays, put that HYPE kid Mason in there and see if he is what all these hype fans were raving about, let's see EXACTLY WHAT HE HAS.

Not sure if it says a lot about lance's talent, our scouting stupidity, or our inability to tailor the game to lance.

Jimmy is better at game managing these close games. He has more clock awareness. He's not going to huddle up 7 minutes to go down two scores.

This is all shanahans fault though. Jimmy and lance are completely different players but the offense and conservative game planning looks the exact same.

The passing map looks the same as well. Every team know where going to throw it down the middle most of the time and don't attack the sidelines.

It's become apparent shanny is a plug and play guy. He believes he can make his "system" work regardless of the players in it.
