"Justin Herbert should be worried tbh," one commented. "Herbert really got his job taken by Lance," another said. "QB competition brewing in LA," one wrote. "Proud of Trey, he needed that moment. Hope this is the start of his groove," another said. "San Francisco didn't give him enough time," one said. "Oh yeah the starting QB job is his. Justin Herbert is shaking," one commented.

After scoring his first touchdown pass, Lance earned the praise of 49ers insider Grant Cohn, who noted the development of the quarterback under Kyle Shanahan and Jim Harbaugh. Cohn was flabbergasted by Lance's improvements in his debut for Harbaugh.
