Football Football talk: What happened with Colin Kaepernick? - Page 3

Dante84 · 02-03-2017, 03:07 PM

Keep the National Anthem / Political bullshit out of here. Daddy wants to talk football.

I am, admittedly, not a great judge of football talent. I am good at describing what I think are good attributes, what I think are shitty attributes, and I am always a glass half-full kind of guy. It's my nature.

I'd like to know what led to the collapse of CK. I thought he looked solid coming out of Nevada, he took the league by storm, which sent Alex over to us. Then, When Harbaugh left, it all fell apart.

Did defenses adjust to his speed? Is it his pocket awareness? Too meek, or too aggressive? Inaccurate? What happened?

He just opted out of San Fran, and is now a Free Agent. 49er re-tread jokes aside, and political bullshit aside, is he a decent replacement for Foles, while we draft a rookie and let him develop?

FWIW his teammates voted him as the most inspiring and courageous teammate so it's BS to say he'd be a locker room cancer or bad teammate.

He is by all accounts a great person in the community, and he definitely has more upside in our system than Alex. If he's cheap, it would be a no-brainer to bring him in to compete for a spot (even if as QB2 initially ). It all depends on his price.

Didn't he have more turnovers than yards in one game? Maybe it was points.

Yes, as I said before, he had a horrible game in a sub-zero temperature game. It wasn't just that game. He's sucked in cold temperatures overall.

He isn't a consistent starting QB. But he's not nearly as bad as some of his haters want him to be. In warm weather, he's a halfway decent lower-tier starter.

He had an injury before training camp and was not in "football shape" at the start of last year. He started to improve as the year progressed. He's kinda an unknown this offseason.

Forgive me as I only watched the Niner/Dolphins game this year, but his stats don't look that bad at all? Complete aids antifreeze tire dumpster fire pillow biter wide outs to throw to aswell and seemed to do alright

As a forty niner fan I will tell you what I think. Colin Kaepernick is a one time wonder because the league caught on to him. Yes, he looked amazing with his speed against the bears and packers in 2012, and even made some nice throws. However, he was never a cerebral guy. He had a lot of weapons around him, with an amazing defense. Harbaugh did some nice work with him, but Kaepernick's performance started to decline before Harbaugh even left. Kaepernick is not a pocket passer, all he knows how to do is run really fast. He can't read a defense, stares down his receivers, and when his first progression is covered, he panicks and runs out of the pocket. This is why you will never see him take a big hit. I've never liked the guy and I'm counting the days until this moron is gone. Harbaugh made a mistake and it cost us a Super bowl. Carma is a bitch!

Because people made up their mind before he threw his first pass. I don't think many commenting on his season paid any attention to him other than a bad Chicago game.

Just look at his body composition. He's always been slight framed, but this season even more so. If you don't have the passion to maintain an NFL frame then you certainly don't have the passion to be an NFL QB.

He had shoulder surgery this past offseason. That's the reason he looked so frail this year.

I can't believe this is even being talked about on here.

It was a pity vote. No one wants to hang out with him. Since watching him play in that SB you can see the support for him went on the decline in a hurry

"Carma is a bitch."

Ka-do's to you, sir.
