They had their third string 7th round rookie starting at QB and we were one pay away from losing.  They likely would have beat us with Tua or Bridgewater,as we played horribly.  
 

 If the Dolphins can land Rodgers they’ll be SB Contenders.  With Mayfield or Care they could easily win the division next year.

Why did I not see it before in pattern of nonsense.

Oh, I get it. Because I said “I hope Brady ends up in Miami”, you think that I want him to go there to succeed.

 

Fortunately, most  people on these boards aren’t completely moronic and clearly saw that I want Brady to go to Miami because I’d like to see the Bills pound him at least a couple times before he walks away.

 

However, carry on with your idiotic ramblings.

They’re going to really have to shore up the oline and let some players go if they’re gonna get Brady.  He’s got receivers now and it didn’t go great for him.  And they’d be replacing tuas rookie deal

He's done at this point. Having those speed guys is not even playing to his strengths.  He was best with Gronk and Welker dissecting defenses not going over the top(outside of one year with Moss). 

I think a younger Brady would be very good in that offense. Brady on the slant game was very dangerous and having 2 speedsters to run those could be quite scary. But as others have said, Brady at this point is about as threatening as a journeyman Qb at this point.

Did you not just watch the game Sunday? Or the other two we played against them? They have our number. We won bc we have Allen and they have bums at QB.  A Non-homer would see we were out coached and out played in all three games.  Ironically we played our best in the heat stroke game.

The Bills weren’t outcoached-they had turnovers and a couple of major mistakes, that’s what kept Miami in the game. If Shakir doesn’t drop that bomb right in his hands or if Knox catches that touchdown, this game is not close at all. The Bills outgained them by 200 yards! McDaniel wasn’t able to do anything, only had one significant drive in terms of yards…you’re gonna have to explain to me how they were outcoached. Would you say Denver had KC’s number because they played close games? No absolutely not

fixed it for you.

 

people often stick with an error far too long for the wrong reason.

 

Anyway, I think the chance that Lance steps into the 49ers game this weekend and performs at the level his replacement has (since his first start) is zero point zero.  

 

so first round qbs can be determined to be bad enough to walk away from after 6quarters? glad youre not Beane, we'd still be looking for a qb

Rookie Allen replaced a terrible Peterman at halftime in week 1.  There would have been no one to replace Josh after 6 quarters. 

 

Lance had the luxury of riding the pines for a year in Sn Fran---and in his second year when he got the call (when Jimmy G went down), he looked worse than in his 2 games as a rookie.  However, the 49ers had another option---and the last drafted rookie who was immediately far better than Lance.  So your comparison is inappropriate. 

 

You think the 49ers should just give Lance the starting job next season because he cost them so much?  I'm glad you're not the Bills GM...

He was a rookie in 2021.  
 

In 2022, he didn’t get the call “when Jimmy G went down”, he was the starter.  He had one game in a typhoon, then went 2/3 for 30 yards and broke his leg.

It wouldn't make sense to bring Brady to the Phins, except for ...

 

... Ross obviously wanted him when they tampered with Brady, and I doubt the last 3 years have done much to change the old man's mind. He's 82, and seems obsessed with winning a Super Bowl before he goes bye-bye

 

... Miami does have a Super Bowl quality roster right now, but for the QB position. Which is a huge "but for." Even if they were sold on Tua as The Guy, they can't be anymore given his injury history. That SB quality roster has an expiration date, particularly since speed doesn't age well. So: Carr? Not too appealing. Some huge restructuring/mortgaging the future to bring in Lamar? Same. Garoppolo? Sure, but is a 32 year old Jimmy coming off multiple injuries really better than a 46 year old healthy Tommy?

 

... Brady does have the (eroding) skillset that fits the Phins. Ultimate quick read/quick release guy. That's what was working with Tua. And there's that "we're getting the band back together for one final tour" thing with Gronk. 2 year contract, win or start from scratch when Ross is 85? I can see it. If I'm Ross, where's my better option right now?

 yes a rookie in 2021--I mentioned that.

 

You're right about him already being named the starter week 1 once (this season).  Lance's problem is that every other QB on the 49ers roster is better than him. Jimmy G went 7-3 and Purdy is undefeated and fresh off a blowout playoff win (in some rain).

Lance never made sense with where the Niners are in the competitive cycle. He was a project on a win-now roster. Even if he hadn't been injured I always assumed that they'd revert back to Jimmy G. at some point this season. The win-now thing became even more apparent with the McCaffrey trade. I think Lance isn't really an option for them anymore.

To make a definitive statement that Lance is the third best QB on that roster is absurd.  It’s akin to calling Mike White the best QB of the 2018 draft class…..as he himself did…..after his first game in 2021.  There is a concept called sample size that you may want to research.  Of the 3, only Jimmy has enough sample size to make any judgements at all.

[TheFunPolice]

Brady is going to retire. 

 

Media just keep saying he will play because they can't imagine him actually retiring.

 

As far as "he doesn't want to go out like that" goes... Unless he wins the Super Bowl he's going out with a loss. Tampa is old, slow and over the cap with a terrible HC. At age 46 is he really going to start over somewhere else?

 

Most likely: he will retire

2nd most likely: he goes to LV

3rd most likely: he goes to TEN

I think this is likely a very popular opinion right now, but it's not right.

 

He's not good enough to do it all by himself anymore, but he's much better STILL than a journeyman.

 

He would/will be great in Miami with their receivers.  

 

I actually think this is where he'll end up for this and a bunch of other reasons.

 

The downside is we don't need him in our division again!

 

The upside is the Bills/Miami rivalry would be as big as EVER if he goes there.

 

And I am getting aroused just thinking about cheering for Bills players to physically hurt Brady again!  

So there's that!

Nah, the guy is the fiercest competitor in the history of the league! 

 

He is one of the type who will have to be TOLD to leave, when he gets cut and no one signs him.

He'll NEVER walk away if he still thinks playing is an option, especially with the divorce.

 

That's my 2 cents.

I have to disagree. We can't underestimate the ego, now perhaps merging into self-delusion. He absolutely wants to show he's not the reason for his team's collapse.

Raiders: I don't see it. That means getting past Mahomes and Herbert. He chose Tampa because it gave him a clear route to the post-season. I suspect the same reasoning will prevail now.

Titans: Nashville? I don't see it. The lights of Music Row aren't bright enough.

 

So ... Miami. Old man owner loves him. They have the horses and need a QB. Josh and the Bills are the only deterrent to that. Mid-season I would've said "back home to SF" but the way Purdy has played (and the way Tommy has played) makes me think that won't ever happen.

Absolutely not "a journeyman." That's Teddy Bridgewater. He's a clear huge upgrade over that.

Would he be "great" in Miami? I'm not sure, but revenge fantasies aside, I'd rather not see him playing there.

And Mike White is the best QB on the Jets roster right now.  

 

The 49ers QB job is Purdy's at this point.  Put his performance against Lance's, such as they are right now,  and tell me why Lance should start.

[biLLyBuFFs]

Damn, if that happens.. feel sorry for Tua.  Tom won't be the backup there

Why did Lance start week 1 2022?  If Purdy had outperformed both Lance and Jimmy in camp, would he have started?  Maybe not because….rookie, but if Lance outperforms Purdy in 2023 camp are you saying  Purdy will get deferential treatment?  Shirley.

 

Purdy is their QB “at this point” because the other options are hurt.  Jimmy is likely gone via FA.  Personally I think a camp battle is the most likely scenario with the 9ers next year but it is possible one enters as preferred.  
 

Their roster is strong and helps any QB but they haven’t exactly played a tough schedule since Purdy got thrust into action.  Fish, Bucs, Seahawks x2, Wash, LV, Ariz.  Dallas’ D can test Purdy as can Philly’s.  If he holds up there the story could change but right now he has zero hold in the 2023 job.
