I rooted for Trey. No matter how many times I had to watch a 3 yard dive. When he makes his one good pass play a game I root for more of it. I just never seem to get it

I didn't want Mac Jones. Being that he went 15 that would've been one of the worst reaches in the first round EVER based on what was given up.
Yet if he was a 9er I'd actually root for him to succeed because he's a 9er. Rooting for failure so you can be right about your own teams player is just sad to me.

I just got through posting something similar. These guys tell on themselves. You can tell by the measure of the commentary that there is underlying bias of opinion and a complete lack of eagerness and excitement to see what Trey may be able to bring given another offseason and in game reps. Imagine if this were your kid and you'd give up on him or her so fast and naysay before they could even start. Where does this come from? This thought pattern in incomprehensible to me
I for instance never gave up on Alex Smith on any day he was a 49er because I had faith and maybe that is a fatal flaw for me being overly optimistic about all our players and our team's chances?

I for one tell my kid all the time when she sucks. I push her to work harder. She thinks she can wait til the sport season starts up and just go to practice and everything is honky dory. Life doesn't work that way.
she was backup setter the previous year. The top 2 girks graduated. In watching my daughter i knew she needed to work before this season. I pushed for her to work. She refused to work on her own and what happened this year?
She lost her starting spot(assumed spot) and quit. I didn't root for my daughter to fail. It was just something that I seen potentially coming.
So like Brock and Trey, I'm not rooting against Trey. Just using my observation as to how I think it plays out

After seeing purdy, it's clear to me Lance just doesn't have it. He's slow in his decision making, he has a slow release, he's not a fluid runner, he's not a powerful runner, he's not accurate on short throws, and most of all he's not confident. A successful qb needs to have confidence.

Yeah it's all of those and more. Purdy has all the QB categories you need. Lance is just a physical prospect they hoped would work out. But he's missing everything you really need at QB. The most important parts. His arm is relatively strong but very inaccurate. His best aspect was supposed to be speed and mobility. He is nowhere near Lamar Jackson or Justin Fields. He really does run around like a fat fullback. He didn't run so anything is just speculation. But what you can say is he is not as fast as the claims or hype.

It's not that posters have only given him 4 games, it's that lance has only given this team and fans 4 games. And in those four games he didn't look very impressive. Team and fans are still left with hopes and prayers going into year 3, same as after he was drafted.
The good thing is that Lance has another opportunity to show fans he was worth 3 firsts and 3rd, with Purdys injury. Let's see what he does with it. His story is not written yet.

Really? He won't get much of a chance when Purdy get healthy, which will be at the beginning of training camp. Lance is just going to be a back up here and will eventually be traded or leave for somewhere else.

Thats just it to me. You literally have nothing to hang your hat on with him. Except he seems to truly be a good dude. A 22 year old nice young man is literally the best things we can say about him

I also rooted for Trey when he got drafted but for some reason he reminded me of Trubisky, another highly acclaimed NFL prospect because of potential but lacked in experience and only had a few college games in his resume. Just look where Trubisky is now. I hope for the positive, I hope for the best but I am just saying.
