I know a lot of folks still remember this moment (and do so rather angrily).

If you're one of those, you'll appreciate this story.

Per NFL Network this morning, 49er QB Colin Kaepernick was benched at the urging of his teammates.

Apparently there was an angry outburst from several players recently that occurred after Kaepernick left the locker room (unknown if he said anything to provoke it). During this brouhaha, a bunch of 49er players declared their belief that it was time for their franchise quarterback to take a seat on the bench.

Think the locker room doesn't matter? Think again.

You'll like this too.

According to Mike Triplett of ESPN.com, a stat change by the Elias Sports Bureau took away a pair of records Brees had apparently set during a 52-49 win over the Giants. A fourth-quarter fumble by receiver Willie Snead was corrected to an interception, since there was some question about whether he had control of the pass. That cost Brees a 6-yard completion, meaning he completed 39 passes for 505 yards instead of 40 for 511.

That’s only significant as both were new career highs for Brees. He still tied a league record with seven touchdown passes, so there’s probably a ceiling on how bad he’ll feel.

The Saints are appealing the ruling...

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
