#1. Dan. 9:2 says "years"
#2. Have you ever gone for a ride in a "cool" car? Did you wear an overcoat, a hat, gloves, and scarf? -- That's the analogy for the "unusual" INCONCISE Masculine gender text which was used by Daniel and is found ONLY in the 9th Chapter of Daniel, and NO WHERE ELSE in the ENTIRE OLD TESTAMENT. But of course the Feminine gender text is found throughout the Old Testament, including in Daniel 10.
But you wouldn't know these things because you're apparently are not familiar with Walvoord, Young, Kiel, and Kliefoth. Maybe you should familiarize yourself with their works.
Many of you should NOT be "teachers"!

Poor soul. You cannot even grasp the simplicity in God's Holy Writ.
Dan 9:24-27
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
KJV
1st period was defined by the going forth of the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem. That was 454 B.C. as I showed.
2nd period was from that command to Messiah when He was 'cut off', which was 29 A.D.
3rd period is 1 seven ("one week") that is yet to be accounted for.
