As a Niners fan, you’re absolutely correct. Kyle was using him as a RB right up the middle. You had 250-300lb linemen tackling him down to the ground. Then Kyle blames Trey for getting hurt smh

Go Cowboys 💪💯 Outstanding content been enjoying your Segments I hope this is the Season we do it and I am Rooting for Trey Lance

Lance is a good raw quarterback who can develop into a great quarterback in time. Lance can be used as a takeover for Dak or in time as a good trade.

What McCarthy needs to teach Trey Lance: 1) How to read a defense, 2) How to go through your progressions . . . It amazes me how college quarterbacks don't know how to do this . . . one of the reasons Aaron Rodgers has a quick release, is that he does a lot of the mental work Pre-Snap . . . while Purdy doesn't have Trey Lance's arm, you can see that he "processes" much faster than Trey Lance

If Dak leads the league in picks and Copper Rush is Cooper Rush. I can see Lance giving this team a spark

He's a great player hes beast 49ers give up on too soon hes just need more time in the system hes got a great future ahead of him in dallas with cowboys in 3 or 4 years that's me

I think Coach Mac should use Lance sporadically. Use him in an RPO role, since he’s really quick for a QB, once he gets his long legs on track. This kid is basically a college sophomore who has never been coached by a QB guru. I think we should keep the kid as Duk’s backup until either Duk goes or Lance shows signs of kicking ass!!! #DC4L

Tony Romo was on ice in waiting for four years before he got his shot.

Yes. Lance has been evaluated by McCarthy. I think the team has a plan for Trey’s success.

He was trying to run him in the ground, he sabotaged his career.

Think too that KS just may have got inpatient with him and hoping he could do more. Not being in the building and even in those meeting rooms it’s super hard to know what the coaches are thinking.

I 100% agree with you on this! I noticed the same exact thing when they started putting Lance in all the plays were weird they had all kinds of designed runs none of it made sense to me. Then you have pretty in there and they let him dink-and-dunk and let people do stuff after the catch. It was very strange my current theory is that Shanahan's ego is way too big and he tries to develop quarterbacks through pressure and through breaking them down somehow instead of building them up. A Young quarterback needs to be taught needs to be nurtured needs to be built up needs to get his confidence strong not to be harped on for every type of mistake and every situation where they fail. Failure is normal at this stage of development. I don't think Shanahan tolerates failure. Has a horrible combination. And for anyone who's going to respond to my comment that failure is unacceptable at the NFL level you would be one hundred percent wrong! Go look at Peyton Manning's rookie year, Drew Brees rookie year, Troy Aikman rookie year, John Elway etcetera etc etc. Failure is completely normal while the quarterback is developing. It's expected! And a coach needs to know how to build that person up in the utilize what that person has. Not by random design runs right up the middle to get the quarterback injured

Excellent as usual. Yes you laid out the game plan for him. Get him a simple set up for passing options, let him run, and depend heavily on the run game. Put him into positions he is comfortable with that give him options. Center the the team around him so he can function in that capacity. This is very attainable and it can save the Cowboys years of mediocrity, to continue on with the current team. He has big upside hopefully it pans out for him.

Trey Lance's success in Dallas will depend a lot on his mental attitude being a high draft choice having to eat years as backup.

Damn guys, hearing alot of hate on this trade. San Fran had got to see something good about him for them to give up 3 first round picks to move up and draft him. They had to have watched some serious college game film on him to do this. It's not like they woke up draft day not knowing anything about him and giving up 3 #1's to get him. And even then, if things don't work out, you only gave up a 4th round pick for him. Not all 4th rounders become pro bowl players, not a bad trade at all!

Great analysis. Keep up the good work!

Is a great move for the Dallas cowboys front office...tray lance ave alot to prove to the doubter n ppl who call him a faller...I absolutely love the move

I totally agree with your analysis. I never get why they had to trade up to draft a project and developmental QB; knowing full well they won't have time to develop him!

Mike McCarthy can develop him!

i could see a future where the plan for lance is to develop him enough so that they can fleece a team for picks. jerry sometimes attributes team’s success to weird sources (tavon austin, mike mccarthy being the packers coach when they bounced the cowboys out of the playoffs multiple times), but i know i’m pissed every time the eagles flip a backup quarterback for picks, and i wonder if that’s another angle for this investment.

dude you are correct. Trey will be a great player.

No one wants Trey Lance to be the next Prescott, they want Trey Lance to be Trey Lance. He has the skills he needs the mental development

The main question that should be addressed is how is going be the QB coach that can help me develop fundamentally and in doing so help become disciplined with his readers and timing to check , go through his progressions and take with the defense gives him if nothings tjere

Could definitely use him to mimic Jalen Hurts and the RPO the Eagles run... It could help train the defensive ends and linebackers

Kyle definitely misused Trey then he gave up on him and didn’t TRY to develop Trey. He promised Sam QB2 to get him to sign with the Niners and Kyle didn’t think Purdy wouldn’t be ready week 1. There never was a true fair quarterback competition because Trey never got to play with Kittle or CMC.

Awesome video! Facts about the misuse of Trey with all those designed runs.

Trey is extremely athletically gifted but he is essentially a high school QB in experience. I don’t think he is worth more then a scout team player unless he gets 2 years of QB schooling without expectations. When it’s said and done, I think the Cowboys gave away a 4rth round pick.

As a Niner fan I was disappointed that he was traded. Even though I prefer Brock as the starter I had hoped Trey would’ve continued to be developed as a QB, because I like having depth at the quarterback position. Hopefully he thrives in his new team.

🙌❤️‍🔥Pretty solid take from your opinion of Kyle Shanahan throughout 💫💯

IMHO. I think the Cowboys are going to use him on the scout teams. This will not only help Trey Lance, but it will also benefit the defense.

I'll point out that most of those terrible reads were from Trey's first live game action in almost a year. He actually had a good game against the Raiders. That throw to the LB the defender didn't follow his assignment and Trey assumed he would. Bad play but understandable for a young QB in a preseason game.

Trey Lance will be a good pocket and running when nothing is their I think he'll be a great quarterback let the cowboys get a runnerback, wide recipe, offense and defense lineman and

IMHO it was a good read but Trey Lance thru the ball late, if he thrown it here at 6:41 it’s a touchdown. He took about 4 more steps before he thru it. What happen to Trey Lance in San Francisco is a loss of confidence and it clearly shows in that play. He digressed from his play against Houston Texans. He started the last drives against Denver this preseason shaky, but he started to gain a confidence which lead to a touchdown to Cameron Latu who had been dropping balls all training camp. He then led a impressive drive which led to a game winning field goal (Yes 2nd & 3rd stringers). It will be interesting to see how McCarthy builds him back up if he can. Not expecting anything until next year.

I have more faith that McCarthy can develop Trey Lance than Shanahan, who rather see Trey Lance fail because he wanted Mac Jones instead!

I mostly agree with you. One thing that I disagree with you on is that they need to design an offense around him. He has to prove that he has the acumen to understand the nuances of the offense we have. He needs to learn to read beyond his first read. He hasn't played..... He needs to sit and learn. One other thing that I disagree with is that I don't believe that Shannahan EVER designed the offense around him. Shannahan has a track record of favoring pocket passers. Lastly, the Cowboys took a low risk chance on a high talent player. But he isn't in the conversation of competing with Dak. He has to be at our Cooper Rush first. Why would the Cowboys get rid of a proven backup for a dude that has only played a total of 5 games in the last 3 years and 23 games in 5 years? He hasn't played enough football. Contrast that with Dak after 3 years of college and two years of pro. Dak played 69 games. This is a project. One that won't be ready in two years to overcome Dak Prescott. If he can't beat Cooper Rush, then he isn't the QB of the future.

Well, if it’s mentality is, I don’t care if I am a backup as long as I’m learning, then he can be successful. He’s not going to be the starter but he’s not being asked to be the franchise savior. I think there is tremendous upside and a coin toss, whether he may be something special.

He's a backup and has a chance to learn from a true professional

The coach or coaches at NDSU need to be NFL coaches because they take players like Wentz and Lance and make them look great with their schemes,obviously!!

Well he couldn't beat out a guy who was seeing ghosts on the field

Same thing he did with Robert G3 the other blk qb he slayed so he could get to kurt C.

Sends weird vibes through the organization when the head coach isn’t consulted

Tell Trey Lance to take off the skates while playing QB for the Cowboys.

I agree

If the Green Packers were patient with love and it paid of don't see why Cowboys cant do the same.

He’s had his chance Dak go let trey lance have a chance if we lose so what at least out draft pick will be higher. If Daks our QB we might win more games but what’s the purpose if we lose in the first round . I think we will be lucky to win 10 games this year out of the 17 games played this year I think 13 of those teams went to the playoffs last year

A smart NFL franchise owner and his coach will use the quarterback's skills and build a good offense around those skills to make him as successful as possible including a decent defense to keep the opponents from putting too many points on the scoreboard. What happens in Jed York's mind is to find another Joe Montana and if that quarterback cannot be molded to the way his coaches want him to play, then he goes looking for another Joe Montana. The Yorks and Jed have no idea how to use one good quarterback and his skills to build a good offense around his skills to make him as successful as possible. Even Bill Walsh, though a great coach, was forcing Joe Montana to play as his robot. Fortunately Joe did what he wanted until Joe figured out how to win games without being his robot. In other words, Joe Montana was very intelligent and had lots of playing time by the time Bill Walsh retired so he really didn't need a coach anymore telling him how to play. I see Trey Lance in the same way I saw Joe Montana during his career as a 49er NFL franchise quarterback who learned from his experiences beyond what any coach sitting on the sidelines could ever understand. However, Eddie DeBartolo Jr. understood Joe and wanted him to replace Steve Young who took over the team while Joe was healing from that elbow surgery for almost 2 years. Eddie was the only one who wanted him back in the starting position after he was ready to play again.

I disagree. I think dak sounded butthurt about them not telling him

The cowboys have a good offensive line, he doesn't have to run around, unless he has to. Except for designed quarterback runs, and the reads.

I've said it before and I will say it again. We wasted a fourth pick, period!!

Could be a sign that if Dak fails this year they have a replacement with little mileage and is moldable

To me Lance is like that Cheezit commercial...."He's not ready yet"....I do believe with the right nurturing he can mature and develop though. Dakota is our guy period. Lance may be able to win the 2 with time. I still like the trade.

Kyle Shannon used lance like he did RGIII

Trey lance needed to play just three full games that’s it !

Bro you overthinking this trey Lance situation just saying. Tray lance needs to stay healthy real simple everything else will take care of itself

Trey was brought to Dallas to develop this two read scramble drill offense he will fit he will be Dak replacement by 2025 seasons he could only be a few injuries away from getting the QB1 job he just wasn’t wanted by Kyle it his type of quarterback

If Dak lays another egg in the playoffs its bye bye

Guy couldn't even be back up on the team that drafted him to be franchise qb.Jerry should be looking at offensive line

Should have kept Will Grier and kept developing him more. Now you’ve got to start from scratch with developing Lance.

Bannabunns shouldn’t have run lance after that damn Deebo first down .!! What was he thinking

Only thing I don't like about this whole thing is that how Jerry Jones didn't let D4K know beforehand...

Lance ran a ton of QB Power in college. Maybe that’s why Kyle wanted Trey running those type of plays. Not being sarcastic. Also, KS runs a lot IZ n WZ working in concert with PA and boots. I personally don’t think KS used Lance improperly. I believe that they thought Lance was the guy to have them be more dynamic at that positionbut, seeing him in practice and even with this latest preseason snaps, it’s clear he just does not see the field, even with easy 1,2,3 progressions. Do love your videos and agree with you a lot.

McCarthy goes on ad nauseum about how he likes picking up QB prospects and developing them for trade value - that's likely what's going to happen here. Trey has fewer pass attempts in his college+NFL career than Dak has in a single season(most seasons of his career even going back through college), he's a QB toddler, dude still needs to prove that he can even beat out Cooper Rush for QB2 before we can talk about anything else. To talk about him being Dak's replacement, ESPECIALLY by the end of Dak's next extension, is some REAL over the top optimism. I mean, it would be cool if he literally went from insanely inexperienced to better-than-Dak in 3-4 years of scout team action or whatever... but that's probably some real wishful thinking. You know what he can develop into in 3-4 years though? A legit QB who can prove his competence in preseason(and any other opportunities he might get), and raise his value enough for a desperate team in the league to throw a 2nd at him or something of the sort. After all, if he's supposed to be getting as good as Dak in this time... LOL

This sucks but we have to use him sparingly in wild car positions

The real reason cowboys got him is cause within two years daks walking and he's taking over cowboys won't pay him what he wants he's not worth it unless he wins nfc championship or superbowl

Hahah did this guy say Kyle should help the QB be comfortable on the field? Dude must have watched ZERO niner games.... kyle LITERALLY burned through every QB on the roster. Almost had to use the TE to take snaps in the NFC championship game against the eagles, kyles nickname is the QB killer

They should have made him compete against will Greer

....... totally disagree......it really boils down to snaps, or lack thereof...... He has all the tools...... and how is he going to get snaps? Better idea if McCarthy uses his limited brain.... line Trey up as a RB or in the slot with Dak as QB and set him up for some RPOs.... confidence? give it a rest...

Too early to tell what the plan is. But everybody knows the writing is on the wall. Watch your step.😮

This is old news. It an rpo the play e vets hurt on it was he's lack of reading defensive pre snap and reads post snap that got him hurt ..come on yo know this already

You said the same thing 20 times ? Geez

I think it was a mistake

Lance is just inexperienced, his skill set is superior to Daks, he just needs time and better coaching..

He’s better than dak

Why don't you talk about something else

Trey Lance is a pair of 4s pre flop.

Had I was dak , Id ask for more money or release me me now.....for I don't want to be traded

He was a horrible pick for the niners and he’s to much of a project to deal with. Dallas will find out too and give him the boot!
