San Darnold signs with the 49ers

Class act.  Guy played for 2 dumpster fires, and just went out there did the best he could (which wasn't much) and kept his mouth shut.  I don't think I've ever heard him say a bad word about anyone.

He cannot be a franchise guy, he's just not able...however, in that system, he can be a starter.

Good luck Sam, ya got one more shot.

I would say Darnold will likely ve a very, very distant third option for them. He shouldn't see the field unless both Purdy and Lance got down.

I was under the impression Purdy won't see the field for quite a bit of 2024.  Hence why I said until Purdy was healthy. No way Darnold starts over him.

Lance... Seems not very good. He could definitely turn it around.  But I'm skeptical. I think the 49ers are, too.

I highly doubt Lance is as bad as Darnold. He hasn't shown that so far, in his very limited action.

If it came down to a choice between starting Darnold vs starting Lance and the 49ers chose Darnold, what would that tell you?

I highly doubt you ever see that scenario other than injury. If they felt that way, Lance would be on the trade block or cut block.

It's fun for some people to think that Darnold is anything other than a #2 or #3 QB in the NFL, but he has never shown he is anything but that.

The only thing I could comfortably say I know Darnold to be is a nice guy.

I am curious to see how he functions in Shanahan's offense though, partially because I don't think Brock Purdy is some diamond in the rough that everybody missed on. He just played well within the system.

Maybe Darnold can do that too.

Darnold is at best a #2.  Signing him tells me they're long term banking on Purdy getting healthy as their answer. Otherwise maybe they try to go for a better backup.

Lance may not even be a #2, at least right now. He has looked the worst of the starting QBs on the niners.

The 49ers are good enough a #2 can look very good.

    • https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2024/06/bruins-hurricanes-could-swap-linus-ullmark-and-martin-necas.html The Boston Bruins are continuing to garner more and more interest for their former Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender Linus Ullmark, giving them a chance to be picky about the return. That could exclude much of the league from acquiring the star netminder, with Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman sharing on The Jeff Marek Show that he doesn’t believe teams like the Vancouver Canucks or Montreal Canadiens have the assets to acquire Ullmark. Friedman added that the Carolina Hurricanes could be one of the few teams rich enough for the deal, especially if they involve forward Martin Necas. https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/carolina-hurricanes Expect the Maple Leafs and Predators to be two of the top suitors for Hurricanes defenseman Brett Pesce if he hits the open market next month, The Fourth Period’s David Pagnotta reports.  
    • They do, just when. I hate to be pessimistic but it’s all about the QB. I can’t recall a QB situation where a bad QB (not bad stats, but looking like they don’t belong) turned a team around. Peyton Manning had a ridiculous amount of interceptions but he didn’t show his future limitations. Usually, it was picking another QB in the draft. Unfortunately, IMHO, we won’t be really better until we get our Cam v2, someone who can carry the team and not win only if we have a stud lineup around him. That’s why I’m more interested in how the rest of the draft picks do to see if we can actually solve holes like the ones we created losing Olsen, CMC, Moore, Turner/Kalil/Norwell, etc. I want to actually be one QB away not Fitterer’s definition of one player away.
    • I will say once you have been in newer arenas and stadiums with their way better bathroom set-ups, it is such a massive improvement. It clears up a lot of insane lines just waiting around to piss.  I have taken to not drinking at all at older stadiums just so I don't have to deal with planning when to take a piss and what part of the game I am gonna be forced to miss because of it. It's so nice to be in a new arena/stadium with way better bathroom accessibility that doesn't force you to literally miss the game. Not to mention I will actually spend money on booze there then.
