If Lance fails, its all on Kyle for wasting three 1st round picks.
There are no nuance in a lot of these conversations. The play calling, situation management and players not being available has played a huge part in why Lance has struggled. It might not have been pretty but Trey Lance could easily be undefeated as a starter.
right, because none of it could possibly be lance's fault
when you make 2 nfc championships without that QB at number 3 how is it on the coach and GM using that logic andy reid and bill belicheck are busts typical loser ryan leaf
“What do you tell Trent Williams….?”….Who cares what you tell Trent Williams. Maybe you tell him to block better since it was his missed block that was the point of contact for Trey’s injured ankle (also, contrary to popular belief, Trey made the right decision to run on that play). Maybe if he didn’t miss that block he could get a better sample size of Lance’s ability to play the position to make “locker room decisions” about the QB situation. Maybe tell him that.
Also, Kyle a “QB whisperer”? When did ole Shanny earn that moniker? Was it when he ran RG3 to the ground? Was it when he didn’t even scout Mahomes? Was it when he didn’t even consider Kaep and went straight to ((check notes)) Brian Hoyer & the dream of the human trivet, Kirk Cousins? Was it when he turned CJ Beathard to a crash test dummie? Was it when Mullens never got better? Was it when Jimmy never got better (until the second CMC arrived. So was that more a CMC thing or a Kyle thing?)? Was it when he ran Trey like he was Mike Alstott regardless of his broken finger or thoughts of his passing ability?….Did Kyle earn that nickname the same time he earned his “genius” label?
With all due respect: That’s the problem with our franchise now, The Locker Room has to much influence on matters that have nothing to do with them after they get paid.
Trent had nothing to do with the decision process to acquire Trey so why the hell would he be involved in him playing? Quite frankly placing any of this on the locker room is Kyle kicking the can and shirking responsibility. He’s played 4 games and Kyle is trying to weasel his way outta developing the kid and attaching his legacy to him, As if Trey was signed off the street, with nothing invested in him. Trey had zero input on being drafted here.
Kyle's ego should have gotten him fired after blowing the lead in the super bowl not running the ball " OH I'M SUPPOSE TO RUN THE BALL…. NO I'LL SHOW YOU AN THROW IT"
