Assuming Jimmy Garoppolo is healthy after the bye, what should we do?

This. If he's healthy, he's going to be starting.

If they Niners were 5-0 or 4-1 and Jimmy hadn't been hurt and he was playing really well then I would be fine not starting Trey. But he did get hurt and he wasn't playing great anyway. Very average to be honest. He has 5 TD passes and is averaging 231 yards per game. I'm thinking Trey could probably be doing better than that with a couple more games under his belt. It may be too early to give up on SB hopes but I don't think it's a strong possibility. they make it. Three of the next 4 games are against relatively easy teams but Indy and Chicago both have pretty good defenses. So do we try and win those games or go with Trey

I'm thinking the stay with Jimmy at least for those 4 games. If they can't win 3 of the 4 then go with Trey. Meanwhile they need to keep feeding him a few more reps with the starters.

Staying with Garoppolo, if this is what Shanahan decides, will tell me a lot in addition to what I already believe about Garoppolo giving this team the better chance to win now.

Garoppolo has been better than "very average" in the first three game & first drive of Game 4. Not great but he's been better than average if you've watched closely as he & the team have averaged 29 ppg. They were 37 seconds away from being 3-0 after he drove them to the go-ahead score vs. GB. I'll take 29 ppg. all day with the promise this defense has shown.

I agree, playoffs are still in the cards, Kyle isn't worrying about what fans or the media say, he is trying to when games. People forget we have the same record as the Chiefs, the season not over yet

JG drives are more consistent then what Trey has shown in 3 halves of football. His completion percentage is above 65% Trey completed at best 52%. Trey is throwing dumb intercepts and is getting sacked. Jimmy has thrown only 2 intercepts all year. Trey is missing a lot more opportunities that I think Jimmy would have landed.

Definitely Kyle isn't worrying about what fans or the media are saying. He wants to win now and we'll see what he does a QB vs. Indy, if he goes with Garoppolo (if healthy) like he's suggested he would.

I agree!!

Why not go legitimate 2 quarter back system kinda like the raider pre-season game. Maybe Jimmy got in Kyle's ear and said he not good with it, however he doesn't have much leverage since he gets hurt so often. At the least, role out Trey for 1-2 drives a game.

If Kyle is fine with throwing away yet another season after 5 weeks, then yes he should start Trey.

On paper when you look at the rest of the NFC, getting the third wildcard spot isn't a stretch. Do I think they can pull it off, or even deserve it? Ehh…

Trey's interception wasn't dumb. He threw it too high. If that balls lower it's a completion. He could've ran for the 10 yards yeah but that wasn't a dumb int. More consistent drives with Jimmy? Like those first few inconsistent drives against the Eagles or the whole first half against the Packers?

Figuring out a "2 QB system" is the least of this teams issues right now

The calf injury was fake anyway. It was the only way for Shanahan to demonstrate to fans that Lance was not ready with the ability to go back to Jimmy after a game.

/conspiracy theory
