Can't even speak on Blaine's play without talking about Kaep. You have nothing to stand on.

Blaine's play was fine last night, he moved the ball and put up 7 points. Nothing great, nothing bad.

you really thing gabbert would have played a whole half of football and finished with 14 yards passing? c'mon man

14 yards in a quarter. Kaep would have gotten destroyed for that. Actually, he did.

And the bolded is disingenuous. Do you say the same thing if it's Kaep? No, you don't.

Funny how you come in here and switch the subject to Kap.

Td drive in every pre season game. Kap needs the boot he's trying to derail the season because he's a whiny b***h that didn't get traded. Simple as that. If he was in a Broncos uniform his ass would of been standing. Guaranteed

Who's going to get blamed if Gabby falls on his face?

Blaine would. Lol.

The bottom line is Trent brought in Gabbert, signed him as a backup to CK. Kelly has been here one off season and neither have had a chance to fully address the situation at QB. Next year may be that time if Gabbert proves nothing but being a quality backup.

We have yet to see Gabbert in this REAL offense.

Stay tuned...

Exactly. If Blaine fails he's the first one to be responsible for it. Then Baalke for not giving Chip more to work with at QB. Chip gets just a smidgeon of blame because if he didn't have interest is seeing how Gabbert and Kap could perform for him they would have got a different QB this past offseason.

Plus it's a collective effort so I'm sure if Kelly has a boner over a QB I'm sure Baalke would have tried to make that happen. But if you're Kelly, you're probably feeling really good about Gabbert and Kaepernick coming into the team.

Couldn't have said it better myself, my fellow poet.

Thanks.

Kap is the villain they deserve also. What a s**t show in Yorklan. We need a white knight and I don't mean chip Kelly's alter ego.

This. Nobody and I mean nobody has said he'd be great. He has a chance to be efficient and competent though...enough to effectively operate Kelly's offense.

I agree. Gabbert is not inaccurate, he was 2 for 3 yesterday and 6 for 9 last week, about 60% last year. He reminds me of Alex Smith, a game manager who doesn't make spectacular plays but won't lose the ball thru sacks or interceptions. Kelly has said that's exactly what he wants. He has the potential to do that.

You can't make judgments based on a few plays of the preseason when there is no game planning and only vanilla plays are used.

If you look at the big picture you have a poor passing game with an average QB and lousy receivers, but you also have what could be a strong running game with an improved O-Line and good stable of runners. You also have what should be a much improved defense. You have a solid coaching staff. So there is potential for a significant improvement over last years fiasco.

Yup and good chemistry with TEs and RBs in the passing game. Smith will still have to be respected so at least it should open up stuff underneath and that's Kelly's M.O. and Blaine's strength.

I really wish we drafted Lynch or Dak though. Having Driskell here gives Baalke another out, to draft DB heavy again.

His career completion percentage is 55.9%. Last year's 63% was inflated by checkdowns. He doesn't have good downfield accuracy.

We need to draft a QB early in 2017.

So why don't you troll Kelly?

That may be the idea next year. Then again, he's grown and we have yet to see him in a Kelly offense.

Kelly was lucky to come here. Dude landed a job months after being fired for poor play and all that controversy.

He did not have much sway with this front office. Especially given how he destroyed the Eagles front office all by himself.

Do you really think he could command our front office so vigorously to affect the drafting philosophies of a one, Trent J. Baalke?
