Don't kill the messenger.. QB idea..

[frankw]

The 49ers have a pretty good roster in place that will be playoff ready for the foreseeable future I don't see them moving Jimmy unless they are very comfortable with Lance and that seems still far off. Besides going from Teddy Bridgewater to Sam Darnold is bad enough. I would rather just suck for another year with what we've got.

Yep at least its a plan instead of trying another scrub qb out that we most certainly would have to deal for and most certainly have to redo his deal

I think Jimmy G and McVay are just a good combo.

Jimmy will need a good game plan and play calling to succeed.

He will not find that here.

What have you "heard" because my people I listen to say there is no way they move on from Jimmy without knowing 100% Lance is ready.  And right now based on his last time playing he aint ready.

Bill Simmons and Ben Solak discuss the options that both parties have.  Its an interesting scenario

I'll give you the fact that there's a lot of speculation based on the hypothetical of what I already told you; his fate largely depends upon whether he can win the Super Bowl. That being said, I don't believe that the odds are in his favor. And still, there is way more information to the contrary based upon what's actually going on if you're to believe other insiders and people who know the team.

Jimmy G isn't the answer

I dont think he is anywhere close to ready and nowhere near as good as jimmy g.  They have him on a deal they probably will just keep him as insurance

I think he will be many times better than Jimmy G. Jimmy is an average QB. Lance has ultra high potential and works to get better every day. I believe he will be a franchise QB whenever he gets the reigns.

He's average, had durability issues, and 30 years old making 26 million dollars.  I don't get the appeal at all.

I predicted weeks ago that we'd end up with Jimmy G at QB next season and some washed up retread "name" at OC like Jason Garrett who already has one foot out the door and will use Tepper for what amounts to a severance check on his way to retirement from coaching.

I don’t want a band aid…we will need to draft a QB IMO…now or later

[NanuqoftheNorth]

The Panthers choices next season under Rhule's leadership amount to this:

Failure and embarrassment w/Darnold under center.

Or

Failure and embarrassment w/(insert name here) AND wasted cap space/future picks.

They could get a 2/3rd but you all think they’d rather have Darnold for 20 mil lololol

Sad, but true.

[Brooklyn 3.0]

He's better than anything we have that's for sure. But no, he won't come here. If they truly want to run with Lance even though JG has them in the Playoffs, they'll get a better deal from someone else. We just don't have enough to trade, nor should we trade for him. He's not a franchise QB and would die here.

I've never hated the Jimmy G idea, but, we are not in that position.  IF we didn't have Darnold under contract, or IF he was under contract at about $5M a year, it would make some sense.  Garoppolo is  not going to make 49ers fans forget Montana or Young, but he can hold down the fort until the future starter comes along (exhibit A is the 9ers situation right now).....provided you can keep him on the field.

Add IF our coaching staff develops game plans and calls plays to his strengths, which remains to be seen.  While I think Brady was in over his head as an OC, his philosophy was more tailored to that than whoever we are likely to bring in next.

Which brings us to another IF.  Our OL could get Refrigerator Perry killed back there.  So the added IF is that our OL mess gets fixed or at least stabilized.  Given his injury history, Jimmy G raises the bar to needing to remain upright, from on his back but nobody is calling for the the stretcher.  We struggle even to hit the latter.
