PackIsBack 124 Posted July 27, 2011 ...still going to keep trying with him huh lol? I'm surprised they keep trying with him year after year when his production never seems to improve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 442 Posted July 27, 2011 Hopefully just as a back-up to Kaepernick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LAMBSHATER12 1 Posted July 27, 2011 Why do people think of Kaepernick as the 49ers' next big thing? Just like they did Nate Davis. He was drafted as a BACK-UP. I highly doubt Jim Harbaugh had starting QB in mind when they drafted him. I'm done defending Alex Smith, but that doesn't mean I'm hopping on the Kaepernick bandwagon. Either Alex does SOMETHING this season, or we draft Andrew Luck. End of story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC 331 Posted July 27, 2011 The longer Alex Smith stays the better. I'm a huge fan. You bitches arn't getting Luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CARDINAL 205 Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) I actually see Alex Smith playing really well this upcoming season, and the 49ers making the playoffs in the NFC Wildcard. I was impressed with all the stories that I read and heard during the lockout that Smith was leading and organzing player practices and really showing that he has the personal drive and work ethic to lead this team, and play well individually as well!!!

Shotgun 442 Posted July 27, 2011 Why do people think of Kaepernick as the 49ers' next big thing? I personally don't, but Alex Smith has been given way too many chances. The 49ers are better off giving Kaepernick a chance. Either Alex does SOMETHING this season, or we draft Andrew Luck.End of story. Well, I'd be rooting for a rookie like Kaep to start if you want Andrew. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pwillie52 79 Posted August 13, 2011 You say that as if it is his fault? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sacks98 28 Posted August 13, 2011 You say that as if it is his fault? I don't think thats what he is saying but dam the offensive line looked terrible when the Saints brought the blitz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pwillie52 79 Posted August 14, 2011 when has their line not looked terrible? pass blocking that is, run blocking they have been alright at. niners wont win until they can get some protection for whoever is playing quarterback, no matter who the quarterback is.

RazorStar 4,025 Posted August 14, 2011 Well you did burn a second round pick on the guy. If you draft a QB in the first two rounds, it's because you want to start them one day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
