Look you clearly don’t like him on a personal level but to say he is not better than hoyer and Hogan is a joke. That’s not even counting back ups.

This is a QB starved league, maybe 10 teams have a good to great QB right now. If Kaepernick were worth the hassle, he'd be on a roster.

Could you imagine how much scrutiny and hatred Russell Wilson would've gotten from the whiners with every mistake if Kaep was his backup? Why put up with that when you don't have to?

On point.

You mean the guy who started the knee and they are have an entire owners meeting planned to figure out how to stop it?

Someone in this thread already showed that mentality when he wanted the Titans to sign Kaep -- not as a QB filler like Weeden is (they sure like to ignore what Weeden's actual role is on the team when expressing their outrage) -- but to actually replace Mariota.

Did TB show up to the game today?

My Bears have been dogsh*t for the last few years and he couldn't complete ONE pass against them. ONE PASS!!!!!

He was a flash in the pan. I'm as lefty as they come, I don't care if everyone on every teams flips the bird during the anthem....it has nothing to do with him kneeling.....he sucks.

What team is gonna bring him in and let him learn their offense mid season when he can't even complete passes against garbage teams???

I'm pretty sure he refused to play back up, and Hoyer could at least move the ball. Unsure about Hogan as he only played today and I didn't see any of that game.

Hoyer couldn’t move the ball he was benched today for it.

Deservedly. The new kid looked good until that last drive.

Anyone know why we don't get two games from CBS and two games from FOX every Sunday? I think in the past it had something to do with children's programming requirements, but that doesn't seem to be the case now when instead of a game it's stuff like bull riding, supercross and whatever the station can find to fill time.

In breaking news, Big Ben threw another ugly pick.

No problem with your comment about taking a knee. I don't like it, but the right to express oneself is the kind of thing that our soldiers have fought for, and often died for, to defend.

But the part about only four QBs from the AFC getting to the Super Bowl in the past 15 years, while true, constitutes a pretty weak argument for signing Kaep. His making it to the Super Bowl really means nothing. Plenty of average QBs have made it to the Bowl; Trent Dilfer even won one. In reality, the Niners got to the Super Bowl because of their second ranked scoring defense. Their offense was pretty good, but no better than ten other offenses in the league at the time. It wasn't special, and without that D, they don't make it to the big game.

If Kaepernick had the talent of an Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady or Drew Brees, he'd be starting for an NFL team right now. He doesn't. He has never been that accurate a passer (below 60% career completion). He has to be in a certain kind of system to thrive. What he brings to the table now, at thirty, just isn't worth all the headache.

What a play by Big Ben in the end zone!

Having terrible luck with my fantasy TEs this season. Graham's on a bye and I couldn't find anyone else to pick up in FA or trade for, so I had to play Jared Cook. Not a good look.

I got less than a point from my QB and Cook might get shut out but the rest of my team went off so I will probably still win. This Chiefs-Steelers game is ugly and I love it.

So Adrian Peterson isn't washed up after all.

No especially since Az said they are going to run him until he dies, at least the Saints sent him where he would be used

I had a feeling his troubles were almost entirely due to the Sean Payton offensive system. That pass first Saints system was always a terrible fit for Peterson. He's a much better fit in Arizona.
