But if you are negative toward Jimmy you do get labeled a hater. That is Yacs point. Granted I get labeled a Jimmy hater by a person who can only understand the concept of nuance if it was explained in a Youtube video but it still happens.
Reality is outside of Jake Brendel and Mike McGlinchey in pass protection Jimmy is our biggest weak spot on offense. He just is. Weak spots have to be mitigated. The fact that we are the #1 DVOA with a QB who isn't elite speaks to how successful Shanahan is being at that. While it's possible this team might be good enough to win it all with Jimmy just doing what he is doing I do think it will require him playing the best he's ever played (certainly in the playoffs) for us to get a ring. I'm just not confident that he has it in him. Nothing I would love more than to be wrong on that. I'd imagine Gore, Steve, NY, Yac etc. would all agree with that.
There is far more hatred of Trey Lance on this site than Jimmy IMO. Of which there is zero warrant.
