All I know is I’m excited to watch CK play tonight; quite an athlete. I agree that weather conditions could slowdown the scoring a bit. Mostly, I hope the Refs have a good game.

Welcome to Foxborough, Coach Bill loves rookie QBs.

I hope Emery is looking at Greg Roman to replace Lovie in Chicago
or Pete Carmichael Jr. of the Saints
because the Bears need a offensive minded coach.

Kaepernick has looked good so far, but that’s been against mediocre defenses who didn’t have film on him.

He’s got two road games against New England and Seattle over the next two weeks that will be a real challenge. If the Niners lose to NE, the next week in Seattle will determine who wins the NFC West. Seattle at home to decide the West? I wouldn’t be surprised to see Harbaugh switch back to Smith for that game. Foolish to go into Seattle with a young inexperienced QB against one of the best, young, aggressive defenses in the league. Nothing against Kaepernic, who has impressed, that would be hard for anyone in their first few games in the NFL.

Do I believe Kap is the future of the Niners? Yes. The future should’ve been at least next season minimum. I can’t help but, feel the season has been blown putting this kid in for Alex Smith. Smith seemed to have total control of the offense. And it just has NOT looked smooth since he’s taken over. We will see tomorrow night in the Sunday Night Lights what he’s got. I am a Niners fan and I just think it was too soon. We had at least a NFC title type run waiting.. Now I am not sure about 1 and done. If Seattle don’t get us.

I wish Gregg Knapp could figure that out

“the best coaches are the ones who recognize they don’t know it all already, and continue to learn

So true. Lovie Smith take notice. Any good team you face knows you’ll play nothing but cover 2 and carves it up.

Too bad Colin Kaepernick is not a good QB he has ZERO passing touchdowns in the last 7 quarters of football. As a niners fan i have seen enough of this kid to know he is not ready to be a starter. He cant audible, he cant ready defenses and he loves to run. he might as well be one of our many RB’s.

Why call it “stealing” when you go on to make it perfectly clear that coaches share, all the time? College staffs travel every summer to other teams’ camps to learn about new wrinkles. It’s not stealing if it’s being given away.

It’s refreshing to see coaches give each other credit. Too bad Sean Payton doesn’t give Gruden credit for teaching him his system.

And Gruden’s system, of course, sprung fully grown from Gruden’s massive ego. It wasn’t adapted from anything else that had ever been done in football history.

New England will need to bring its “A+” game to Sunday night’s matchup with the 49ers, whose defense is well suited to slowing down Brady & Co. I have a hunch the game will turn largely on Kaepernick’s performance more than any other single factor. If he’s hot in the cold, rainy conditions expected tomorrow night in Foxboro, then the 49ers will likely win. If not, or in the unlikely event there’s enough cold air aloft to support snow on the ground at game time, then the edge should go to New England. In any event, I’m expecting a relatively low scoring game—in the neighborhood of 24-17—as opposed to a blowout.

Unlike Andy Reid, who thinks he knows everything about football and stubbornly refuses to adapt. Greg Roman, come to Philly!

Think this is a good move for Kaepernick. He nearly ran it to perfection in Nevada and if Vernon Davis can get involved niners offense should take off.

yeah… kapernick sure does a good job running that pistol.

too bad it isn’t shanahans offense. maybe then they might actually put up over 30 offensive points in a game

The QBs that run this will not get the big contracts. They can’t last in NFL without getting hurt. in today out next year.
