So are you admitting Kaepernick was blackballed from the NFL?

Bwhahaha as if the league need to step into make that happen. Kaepernick can't play, folks need to get over that.

So that question triggered you huh?

 

 

The absurdity in thinking that this is still some kind of triggering question is hilarious. Even when he was still in the league he lost his job in season to Blaine Gabbert, and we are supposed to think he could come back and win a Super Bowl after 10 years out the league? 

On the actual subject of the question though, I actually agree he was blackballed, but it's so in the past that it's irrelevant at this point.

So instead of simply saying yes he was blackballed you decided to go on a rant about nothing?

 

You could have made this a simple answer.

To be honest this was a reply to the other dude and miss clicked the quote cause I read your reply first.

But apologies if the conversation triggered you.

Why do so many people conveniently ignore that Denver legitimately tried to sign Kaepernick to a 2 year/$14M deal prior to the 2016 season and he declined reportedly insulted by the offer? That contract would've made him the 23rd highest paid QB in the league at the time. Basically low level starter/high level backup money. Which, let's be honest, was basically Kaepernick's value. Once he didn't sign that deal, everyone else in the league saw that and weren't willing to offer more his career was effectively over.

Blackballing just isn't an accurate depiction of the story. He wasn't willing to sign for what teams were willing to pay. That's not blackballing.

Looks like Tepper may have found his yes man. 

This would be incredibly disappointing and I don’t see the franchise being anything decent anytime soon.  Bryce’s career would be in serious jeopardy with this organization.

I keep thinking about finding a new team.  So hard to pull for this team with Tepper.

Hiring Morgan is a clear indication we aren’t going anywhere

Who is Ben Johnson bringing with him for coordinators? Slowik, I can see a bit more with him tapping into Jerrod Johnson, a rising OC candidate that has had success. 

BJ though, I'm curious about. He's potentially the most gifted offensive wunderkind, but as a staff, what are the thoughts here?

Morris is up there at #1 for me due to who he can bring as a staff (Zac Robinson) and his ties to Evero and Cooley already. Toss in the most recent folks banging the drum for how connected he is and players wanting to play for him, makes me think he checks more boxes for us overall than BJ or Slowik.

His prior experience, while only being 47 is also a plus. The security he brings I think sits better with me given our past two HC hires and how broken our franchise currently is. 

Wouldn't be mad with BJ or Slowik, but I'm casting my vote for Raheem Morris. I get Carroll/Tomlin vibes from him.

Figure Mark Brunell as an OC candidate.

I did some research on what a Johnson staff might look like last year. I'd have to dig it up.

How crazy would it be if Morgan ended up the GM and Evero the HC? That would certainly lend a LOT of credence to the internal Hunger Games environment that has been rumored.

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Absolutely LOVED Smitty as a player. Who didn't? But Smitty the person, yeah... not so much. Unfortunately all those things that made us love him as a player had no off switch. He was basically the exact same person off the field that was on the field and that's obviously just not gonna work well in polite society.

      And our record says we were a losing team that lucked into getting into the playoffs. Playoffs are not our standard because we didn't earn our way in, the Falcons had to do it for us. We also got in because the NFCS sent another losing record team to the playoffs and the Panthers are the only team in the NFL to go twice with a losing record. That's not something to be proud of. The reason I brought up the 13 and 16 point scores was those are not typically wins most weeks in the NFL. In fact, there were 31 wins this season where the winning team scored under 20. 7 of those happened in week 18. That means this past season, only 11% of the time, the winning team scored under 20. Prior to week 18, that was 9%. Week 18 was a statistical anomaly.  How often does a team go into the red zone 6 times and come away with 13 points? Not often. GB did and we won that game. And we played a Jets team (0-7 at the time) that was offensively inept. Teams also don't consistently win one score games as often as we did either. Those things tend to balance themselves out the following year. I'm not erasing wins. I'm looking at how this team actually performed during the season. We defied the odds winning 2 games scoring under 20. The record, and the stats across the NFL, show we are in reality closer in performance to a 6 win team than we are to 8.    If Bryce was a FA for another team would we be looking at him? Probably not. He's in the retread and dice roll category. It just so happens we just signed him to the option. There's not a lot of good options out there right now. That's why I'm not in the sign a vet as QB2 club. Bring in a retread or dice roll. Trotting a vet out a couple of games isn't going to get us anywhere long term.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Not sure he is in the top ten but: His 9.99 RAS score, second among 1,512 tackles since 1987, isn't a gimmick. You see every bit of that explosiveness translate to the field when he kicks and slides in pass sets. NFLDraftBuzz
