Thanks Baalke.

 

[FaTaL]

Eh, maybe he's gonna cash out afterall

His options are limited though

 

[Bryan Danielson]

We actually don't have the highest scoring O in our division, Arizona beat us out, but the fact we're 2nd is a shock.

Wait..... gonna have to check that again then

So like I'm part of this NFC trash talk social media group on FB and Seahawks fans been having they fun killing us and murdering us with the jokes/memes/trolling.

But that was something that came up in discussion the other day.

Per the chart, we was #1, Seattle slightly behind us, then Cards and Rams

But pts allowed we was by far at the bottom.... smh

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

i would love to bring kaep back but his relationship with the 9ers is too damaged. i can see him going to the texans, cards, browns, jets, bears, washington or even jags right now. a wildcard would be signing as a backup with the saints to learn under brees or even minnesota pending teddy's health. this team is frustrating because just when the offense is clicking and showing signs of life they take 2 steps back

and i'm against drafting a WR with our first pick, especially one in the upper half of the draft. i would like to draft DT jonathan allen or ILB zach cunningham with our first pick or trade back for extra picks and take fournette or cook with one of them.

Well that answers that, he's either downgrading or he's gone.

Or upgrading...

 

[LastEmperor2k2]

Also, even if we lose Kaep he was pretty horrendous last season so is his resurgence going to continue elsewhere or is Chip a big part of why he is playing better

Remember Chip got magic out of Nick Foles

 

[B90X]

He's gonna force the Niners hand on baalke. If he keeps playing like he's playing he's gonna say the only way he comes back is if baalke is gone.

Edit: Here's the article from nfl.com

At many points in the past year, it was a foregone conclusion Colin Kaepernick would never play for the 49ers again. Then, it was clear that he was done in the Bay Area after 2016.

Now?

It would not be a surprise if Kaepernick was the team's starting quarterback in 2017, sources said. There is still a chance he re-signs with San Francisco this offseason, and it's certainly not something to rule out like it once was.

But, as several sources explain, a few things will happen first.

When Kaepernick signed a revised contract that wiped away the final four years of his extension and limited his guaranteed money, it gave him the chance to opt-out after the season.

Kaepernick will, in fact, void his contract before the league year and become a free agent, sources said. This creates a scenario where Kaepernick can test the market, sign a contract that gives him much greater peace of mind, and still end up back with the Niners.

Some factors are at play. First, he's playing great, becoming the quarterback coach Chip Kelly always imagined in his system (even during his time in Philadelphia). Second, the once-strained relationship between the franchise and the quarterback is in a very good place.

The 49ers stood by him while he took a hard social stance -- he appreciated that, and most of the issues that lingered when he nearly was traded to the Broncos have dissipated. Things are good between Kaepernick and the team, and his decision to put his San Jose house on the market this week had nothing to do with football.

The 49ers are trying to find the best quarterback (or two) for their franchise, and it's hard to argue Kaepernick hasn't stated his case.

The losses have piled up for the 49ers, though opposing coaches have privately noted after each game that they look like a team that is playing well ... just without a lot of ready talent. Over the last four games, Kaepernick has played as well as anyone.

Finally back at full strength and weight, Kaepernick threw for 296 yards last week in a close loss to the Dolphins, going 29 of 46 (63%) with three touchdowns and one pick. He also rushed for a whopping 113 yards -- reminding observers of old times.

Over the last four games, he's 86 of 145 for 1,110 yards with eight TDs and two interceptions. Stellar. He's also rushed for 223 yards over that span.

It sets up a scenario where he's back in the Bay for 2017, but with a contract he can feel happier about. When he inked his six-year, $126-million extension, it was widely debated. He received far less fully guaranteed money compared to most quarterbacks, and the pay-as-you-go model was one no quarterback wanted to imitate. Perhaps when he tests the market -- and there will be suitors -- he'll find a value he can be happier with.

And the Niners can have a quarterback they'll be happy with for years to come.

Yeah which will be a great thing

I think it's clear Kaep and Chip seem.to be building a good relationship and a successful one, if it keeps up those guys need to stay around

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

[JLova]

Just a dumb team. Vance penalty negates a huge 30 yard run. Then another penalty on the punt. Reatarded.

 

[JLova]

Is Moose aware of the weather?

 

[Heretic]
