Dude, take a break from the board for awhile for your own sake. You're taking things way too seriouslyThere are other emojis that you can use.
OK, fine, since you won't deal, I will not respond to your future posts, so please refrain from asking me direct questions or to comment on something you have said, because I won't answer.(FYI in this context that is expressing chattering)
I meant to say it would be a #### storm if they cut him after he knelt. Theres some theories out there CK started kneeling after hearing he could very likely be cut.
Unlike your rolling smiley it actually was obviously referring to something, in this case to this bolded section:
When you do the smiley it is that buy itself with no reference point, usually not even attached to a quote, so no one knows what you are laughing at or about or referring to. My point was I was pointing out the absurd claim that he was considered a good team mate, as the 49ers award proves the contrary.
And if you are agreeable, I will work out a deal with you, I won't use eitheror
in responding to mine.
Deal?
You're fine with those two but notThere are other emojis that you can use.

Or maybe this thread is still going because he is remains in the news at least on a weekly basis (if not more frequently) tied to his collusion grievance and people seeing (in their opinion) inferior QBs being signed as backups
Hundley was terrible. He went 3-6 and threw 12 picks and only 9 TDs in 9 games. (Kaepernick has never thrown more than 10 picks in a season).BigJim® said:
NO would've feasted on him and the Viking's defense would've made him wish he wasn't signed. Minn D was great this year until they ran into Nick Foles who quite frankly is a worlds better QB then Kaepernick too.
You should probably work on your comprehension a bit. I didn't attempt to give any reason whatsoever as to why the thread was still going. I gave the reason Kap is still out of work.
Of the 16 teams New Orleans played, Hundley's performance was by far the worst. The second worst was Tampa Bay (Winston being another QB Kaepernick is better than) which got 113 yards passing, and then Miami (Jay Cutler being another QB Kaepernick is better than) which got 128. New Orleans also did well against Tyrod Taylor and Bryce Petty, two more QBs Kaepernick is better than. The only QB who they did well against who was clearly better than Kaepernick was Cam Newton.
It's amazing that knowledgeable football fans actually believe this...CalBear said:
I'm not comparing the stats of his final 5 games. I'm talking about his career stats, by which he's the 16th overall in passer rating among active QBs. Vince Young, by comparison, had a 74.4 passer rating; Kaepernick is 88.9. Which is better, by the way, than Andrew Luck, Andy Dalton, Matt Stafford, or Derek Carr, let alone another 20-30 crappy QBs who have jobs. The comparison to Vince Young is simply lazy.
And the NFL and owners will use this in their arguments as well. CK took a chance and agreed to void his injury clause and opt out with SF. He took a chance thinking he could get more in FA and when teams didn't budge he cried wolf and used the protest as his excuse. Instead of acting like an adult and saying maybe I need to take a significant pay cut to just latch on somewhere. Teams want Cheap options and some teams will take a cheap reclamation project like CK and think they can fix them if he decided on that.
I hate Winston but he's way better then CK. Even all the QB's you mentioned. Kapernick was only good when he had a gimmick offense he could run no one knew how to stop and I'm also not Taylor fan but I'd take Taylor too who's proven capable of playing without the gimmicky offense. Heck I'd take Buttfumble at QB if it was between those two. The dude couldn't even beat out and lost his job to Blain Gabbert. That's worth repeating anytime anyone says CK is better then so and so. Really because those QB's would've beaten out Gabbert by wide margin but somehow Kaepernick is better then them?
So you're saying that his early-career passing numbers, which were very impressive, don't count because it was a "gimmicky offense", whatever that means, and that his later-career passing numbers, which are still better than everyone I mentioned, don't count because "teams were playing soft defense."
It's a terrible excuse too. All those quarterbacks would easily beat Blaine Gabbert in a QB job competition but CK couldn't. SF used CK as a last ditched effort maybe for some comedy relief as well. Ck's problems go back to college. Maybe even HS. These athletes with big arms put at QB and never taught how to read a defense, proper routes being ran by receivers, and are manly gunslingers. They rely a lot on their athletic ability. HS/College they can get away with it. NFL you need to be an accurate passer or you'll be eaten alive at the position. Plus you shouldn't be pig headed when it comes to coaching and thinking you don't need it or better then everyone. One of the reasons an athlete like Vick stayed in the league was after his arrest and he got a chance in the NFL again under the Eagles he learned wow theres a lot I need to work on to become a better player at this position He committed to it and tried his best. He couldn't run some of the plays or still read a defense but at the very least he tried and that trying and learning a few things helped create a longevity he had in the nFL.
No because you are only piggybacking off his good numbers without taking into account how they were gotten. You are giving me the same argument as people who use to try and tell me MCW was a great rookie. No his numbers were great because he was one of the only real NBA talents on the team and the rookie class was godawful. We also don't care about his early career passing numbers. This is a what have you done for me lately league. After his career season SF he started to decline. Some of that is skillset other stuff is Harbaugh and company's offense became too blatant and he failed to hide Kaepernick's weaknesses. Harbaugh's offense to hs credit made sure to not try and make CK a traditional QB.CalBear said:
Florio's just advocating a position -- one that he knows brings him a bunch of clicks -- mostly from those that disagree with him. Take a look at Westlaw or Lexis and you'll find plenty of times where the Courts did not agree with positions Florio advanced on behalf of his clients.
As it goes typically, 50% of lawyers are wrong. My point is not even that Florio is right. It's that he has a potentially legitimate argument worth hearing. Billy's take is that I am stupid and anyone that doesn't see things exactly like he does are also stupid.
Please don't use "passer rating" as some kind of all-encompassing metric for effectiveness. Yea Kaepernick had a 90.7 rating his final season.... who cares? He was also 1-10 as a starter and had a worse QBR than Gabbert. QBR takes the contexts of game flow into account which should tell you he was basically a stat hoarder in garbage time in 2016. Once the Harbaugh gloves were off and he no longer had a running game and a #1 defense to support him the flaws were all too apparent. He's a gimmick QB that was en vogue during the read option era... hell even Tebow was a bonafide NFL QB for a short while at that time.
I use to telll people on another board CK would be out of the league in 5 yrs. Didn't believe me until it happened. Kept using things like Passer rating. A few of them were SJW I think though so no matter what kind of support I threw to back up my claims 2 yrs ago they wouldn't hear it.
The problem is CK's particular skillset isn't wanted in the NFL anymore. AN offense he did run well is no longer then norm. He also expects starter money when many teams view him as a back up
The source said the Seahawks wanted to know that Kaepernick wouldn’t kneel this season, and he was unwilling to give that assurance to them.”
Why does he still have the number 7 in his twitter handle or whatever the hell you call that....Ramblin Wreck said:
When he set up his twitter account, he was on the 49ers, so just like email addresses, people tend to keep the one they are known for or first start with.
