Before it becomes a topic of conversation this off-season

There was plenty of chatter prior to the season that the 49ers were starting to doubt him. And the games he started didn't do a whole lot to alleviate those doubts.

That chatter was unsubstantiated, and not by Shananhan.

There are a couple of very good young options for that.

I'm actually starting to think more about Frank Reich though.

I wouldn't be upset with that.

So we make a move for Jordan Love?!

That's sarcasm...right?

I've always believed in the "actions speak louder than words" saying.  Especially when the words are coming from unconfirmed sources in the media.  Putting Jimmy G on the trade block AND starting Lance week one shows me they were more than confident in their young QB.

I get the impression that Shanahan and company have already evaluated him, and didn't exactly come up with a glowing recommendation.

If somebody else wants to give him more time, cool. Wouldn't want it to be us though.

What are you talking about?

That'd be a no...

Or felt like it was "sh-t or get off the pot" time with him.

There have been people suggesting John Lynch should be fired over that trade. I don't think I'd go that far because overall the 49ers are still good, but that particular transaction looks like a disaster right now.

Mind you, the general consensus is that Adam Peters is the one who does all the actual personnel work anyway so if Lynch were to be fired it might be a largely symbolic move.

I think we can fix Zach Wilson....  Let's trade with the Jets.  What's the worst that can happen??

This thread'll age well when Jimmy G shits the bed in the playoffs again.

Yeah, that'd be a no for me too.

Guy not taking responsibility for his own performance and being an a--hole to his teammates is a non-starter.

Exactly!  This is nothing new.  He does this every year with a decent regular season and chokes in the playoffs when good teams make Jimmy G beat them.  It's the reason the Niners made the trade in the first place...

Plus everyone's moms will be put on notice.

I don't really think LG was propping up Garoppolo so much as he was just saying no to Trey Lance.

The guy is a borderline MVP candidate on a rookie contract. They'd be utterly insane to even consider trading him.

I know but I sure do have wishful thinking regarding him. I never gave him a shot in the world or ever believed he would be successful and he sure made me eat my words. I would have straight up traded CMC for him that's for sure.
