Glad we didn't fall for Lance. There was never a bigger risk in the top 10 of the draft at QB in my eyes. Didn't throw the ball in high school and only chucked it for one year in college and his college competition was super on the low end. 

I never got the whole love affair with him.  As you said, just too little to go on to conclude he was going to develop into an NFL QB, let alone do so in a year or two.  Who knows, maybe if he hadn't gotten hurt in their second game last year he would have shown something.  The other side of that coin is he might have played himself off the roster, too.

I didn't have a warm, fuzzy with Zach Wilson, either, but at least there was a body of work to evaluate.

WTF is going on in college football?

 

There is now talk of California/Stanford/SMU joining the ACC. Those long distance flights will be crazy lmao. College football just needs to get rid of conferences all together. There is no longer college rivalry games anymore with all this movement.

Conferences (in football, anyways) were a mistake and TV money is tearing the sport apart.  Notre Dame had the right idea all this time. Shame that we finally get an actual playoff system once the sport is all but dead. The Cal/Stanford/SMU move seems to be one vote away from going through at this time but there's no guarantee that vote'll come, though you'd think State would be swayable. Guess we'll see.

We were rumored to have liked those top 3 but not Fields.

we traded for Darnold after SF moved up to that spot to take the 3rd QB off the board

I still don’t think we would have taken Lance. Rhule wasn’t going to hitch his wagon to a raw rookie. I’m sorry, but I don’t remember any Lance (or even Wilson) interest that was founded in anything besides speculation like the next year when we were tied to every single QB. We had no QB so there were articles about every potential QB pick like Willis and Pickett as well. I do remember discussion about how we weren’t really interested in any of the QBs after Lawrence and making the Darnold trade pre-draft for 3 picks supports those rumors.

Also, SF was rumored to be interested in Darnold as well until they made the trade. We were also already rumored to be interested in Darnold very early as well.

We’ll just have to agree to disagree but we didn’t even give a chance for any QB to drop with the Darnold trade.

I would take a chance on Lance, look at Jordan Love, started out as a disaster, sat now for 4 years and he looks like he might be decent. Could see that with Lance.

So you want a guy that hasn't put it together in 4 seasons to replace a guy that has been here for 2 and looks better than the guy with 4 seasons of experience? 

I'm convinced most of you go on name recognition alone and never bother to actually see if that player fits or even wants to play here.  Fantasy football is ruining the sport of football.

I didn't say the Panthers, just un general. Like if you are the Bucs, you wouldn't chance that?

    • I fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.   
    • What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
