Seems trading Lance is on the table, but I’m not sure he’d fetch much, and definitely nothing close to what the 49ers gave up for him.

Goddamn. Did the injury ruin him, or did he just get genuinely outperformed by Sam Darnold?

The Niners better hope Purdy isn't a one-year wonder... Otherwise, they're screwed.

I don't know, Sam Darnold had some positive traits and needed a fresh start. Maybe in Shanahan's system he'll look awesome if (when?) Purdy goes down.

Hard to not to look good in Shanahan’s system. As we’ve seen, any qb can be over 10 wins just by the rest of the team doing what they do

Yes, shanahan's system is great. Until you need to run the ball to win a Superbowl. Then you throw it 69 times until the clock hits 4:20 and then blaze it out of town and escape all blame for the implosion.

As a chiefs fan, I saw and acknowledge your pain
