I said basically the same. Go back and take a reading comprehension class.

Ok, so you think 59.2% is prohibitively bad and 60.8 isn't. That's fine. Do you expect Cam Newton to be in the NFL next year? Do you think he should be? Is 52.9% prohibitively bad?

At any point you can just admit you were talking out of your ass and just don't like Kaepernick and we can stop.

Yes, clearly I am the only person in the world that thinks Colin Kaepernick is a bad QB. The only one, except oh every other single GM in the NFL that does not want him either. You are quite a savant here. Your posts = Forest Whitaker eye

Why can't you answer my Cam Newton questions? Is it because you've been talking out of your ass this entire thread and just realized it?

Yes this past year, it was prohibitively bad for Cam Newton. In other years it wasn't.

Come on you have to know all back up spots don't get filled until they are sure they can't get even a slight starter possibility. He will latch on somewhere. Some here would rather have him back up Ben than the crap they have now.

Yeah, I think he will be signed before August. He's clearly good enough to play in the NFL. None of us are saying the guy who eviscerated the Packers in 2012 is who he actually is.

Alot of teams also seek backup QB's that are content in their role and don't want to cause friction in the locker room. I know FavreFan likes to think this is fantasy football, like the fantasy land he lives in, but his knowledge of how actual teams are built, is well, prohibitive.

You're changing up your argument now. I said before you did that his off the field stuff is a factor in him not being signed. And then, bizarrely, you claimed that I was wrong and that it was because he wasn't good enough. Now that you know he's clearly good enough to play in the NFL you're going back to what I originally said. So thanks, I guess, for belatedly agreeing with me.

Matt Moore from the Dolphins is one of these guys. Could start for at least ten teams but stays in Miami to spell RT and stays out of the way. He is better than Cutler also IMO.

It's not a fact. It's an opinion, and a baseless one. He played well on arguably the least talented team in football last year. He would almost certainly be on a team right now if not for the stupid Anthem controversy. I don't feel bad for him because he had to know this was a possible consequence, but yeah there's no evidence from last season that he's bad at football, and he's not unemployed right now because of football reasons.


None?

You sure you want to step out that far?

I'll give you some stats that say he compares favorably to Brock Osweiler and Trevor Simien.

:lol: You're pretty bad at this.


The difference is that one player is in his second season and one was in his sixth. If it was Jameis' sixth season, he would have been benched for Glennon.

Why sign Josh McCown over Colin Kaepernick? -- @greenflash78

As expected, Kaepernick's ongoing unemployment has been a hot-button topic. Some folks believe that the quarterback's political stances have precluded him from finding a job. Although it's naïve to think that these factors haven't played some sort of role, the football reality is that he's not a scheme fit for the majority of teams in the league. He also hasn't been a very good quarterback in the past three seasons. It's not shocking that teams aren't clamoring for a 29-year-old zone-read signal caller with an 11-24 record as a starter (and litany of injuries/surgeries) since 2014.

From an X's and O's standpoint, a coaching staff would have to tailor its system to Kaepernick's strengths. How many teams are willing to go all-in with a read-option system?

So, forget about starting. That's not going to happen. The next piece to this story centers on whether it makes sense for a team to have a backup quarterback who never evolved into a conventional pocket passer, on the roster. Why would you sign a backup quarterback who doesn't fit your scheme? (Coaches don't radically alter their offenses for a backup unless it's an emergency).

Geno Smith, for all his faults, is much better suited to be a drop-back quarterback in a conventional pro-style offense than Kaepernick. The Seahawks seem to be scheme fit. If Russell Wilson were to go down, I could think of worse backup options that Kaepernick. But Seattle isn't interested.

From a purely football perspective, Kaepernick, frankly, has nobody to blame but himself for the lack of interest in his services. He never developed into a pocket passer after catching the league off guard in his first couple seasons. He never evolved as a pocket passer like Wilson did. If you watched Kaepernick play the past few years, you'd know that he just isn't very good.

There is no racial component to this story, either. Tim Tebow suffered the same fate as Kaepernick. Teams would have had to scrap their offense and build a new scheme for Tebow, because he simply couldn't thrive in a conventional system. Sprinkle in the Tebow circus and it just wasn't worth it for general managers and coaches.

The truth is that teams would be amenable to putting up with just about any off-field issue if the player is good enough. Tebow and Kaepernick aren't good enough on the field.

That brings me to the Jets. The feeling on One Jets Drive was that Kaepernick's skill set wasn't a fit with new offensive coordinator John Morton's West Coast system.

I'm also not sure Woody Johnson, a chief GOP fundraiser, would be thrilled with bringing in a player who has repeatedly been critical of Donald Trump in the past. Johnson is slated to work for the Trump Administration, for Pete sakes.



He's right with Kaepernick's skill set not fitting most systems, but Tim Tebow is not the best comparison. Kaepernick is a way better player.

Post subject:  Re: 3/21: Yes! Colin Kaepernick talk!

He's become a hero to some for a protest so pathetic that it ended as soon as he became a free agent. So he protested the US government with Obama in office, and dropped it when Trump became president.

As for his skills at quarterback, if anyone watched him during the Bears game last season there would be no question. He literally quit during it. I've never seen a worst performance from a NFL quarterback, and that's saying something considering I've watched the Bears.

Maybe teams are shying away from him because of the protest, but I doubt it. They are happy to sign wife beaters and drug addicts, but his protest scares them off? If people thought he could play they would sign him. The DiCaro types are out of control on him:
