Bring in Colin Kaepernick, like weeks ago.

We are staring at the fact that Newton is likely going to IR.

We already had a roster spot open, to which Marty reportedly "had a plan" for, only to see nothing happen at the trade deadline.

CK isn't perfect by any means as a player, but we need someone with experience on the roster, if indeed Cam is shut down.

There are no more excuses. Bring him in, fast.

CMC is why you don’t bring him in.  CMC is is a better weapon playing in a traditional offense where he is the primary focus. 

We have gone 4-1 with Allen playing his role....and if the defense wasn’t wet garbage against SF the O would have done what they have done.  SF couldn’t stop CMC offense in a “normal” game because they couldn’t stop him in game we barely could run our O because of the D.

So unless CK can stuff the run he doesn’t improve us.

He stinks at football...why cant anyone see this?  

I'm not saying yes or not to bringing him in, but this is incorrect.    He went like 16 TD - 4 INT with almost 60% completion his last season in limited time and with literally no help on either side of the football.     People can make whatever excuses they want but the reason he's not playing is NOT performance on the field.

i love how it was like universally recognized before the kneeling that Kap was a 1 read QB who couldnt make every throw and needed an offense tailor made for his skillset and tons of talent around him and that once NFL defenses figured out the read option he wasnt really a threat anymore but ever since the whole collusion case the media pretends he could magically go to any team in need of QB help and make them a contender

CMC is 100% why you bring him in.

If we don't get CMC some help right now, we'll see him follow in Cam's footsteps in less time, because we're already running him into the dirt harder than we rode Cam.

Dude he was decent his first few years before defenses figured him out. 2015 he wasn’t even rated a top 32 QB. 2016 I believe he was ranked 25 out of 32. Why does anyone think 3 years removed from being a bottom third in the league QB he could come back to the NFL and be good? Brett Favre would be better than him

Please read my post and try again.

Don’t really think Kaep is the answer. It would take him at least a couple weeks to get comfortable in the offense which would put him starting week 10 at the earliest. 
 

If Cam is out the rest of the season I say stick with Allen and see what we have in him. He’s 5-1 as a starter, has helped keep the team in the playoff race.

It doesn't really matter whether he's good or not.

It's not practical to try to bring in anyone from the outside when you're already midway into the season and ask him to try to become the starter and learn the system on the fly.

if you're talking about a position other than quarterback, maybe. But the guy who's running the whole offense?

Just not realistic...

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
