I didn't think it was possible, but Gabbert somehow actually looked worse today than he did in the first game, and that's against a defense that isn't supposed to be as good either.

At this point, I would expect the 49ers FO to be discussing what they might do to fill the backup QB void, especially if a third poor performance happens. One more stinker like the previous two games, keeping Gabbert as the #2 would look (and rightfully so) downright asinine.

There are options at least. Plenty should be available on the waiver wire, including whoever Seattle doesn't keep (they're not keeping 4 QBs). Also, we could exchange one of our depth players who wasn't going to make the final cut for a QB on another roster too. If we went that route, I could see some of the following players as trade bait: Perrish Cox, Nick Moody, Dan Skuta, Joe Looney, Adam Snyder, and perhaps Dobbs.

Any back-ups from Seattle is better than what we've got. B.J. Daniels anyone ? LOL.
A trade is definitely possible, maybe even likely. Last pre-season we pulled off two trades with Haralson and Cam Johnson. Maybe this year we can get a QB in return instead of a draft pick.

Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet

Good pt RT @MoveTheSticks: Christian Ponder would be a huge upgrade as 49ers backup QB. Will be interesting to see what MIN does with him.

I'll take him. Better than Gabbert and Sanchez IMO. I like his mobility, and he throws a decent checkdown lol.
if all our QB play seems lackluster.. im going to go out on a limb and say its gotta be something else..

Mark Sanchez ? That is just another Blaine Gabbert, possibly worse in fact. Does butt fumble ring a bell ?!
IT'S TEBOW TIME!!
Gimmie Tebo,Sanchez or Christian Ponder. All these guys would do much better then this Clutz who somehow makes $2million American Dollars is Beyond me!
Bring back McCoy
Any excuse he had about learning a new system left after yesterday. He just flat missed open receivers. Balls thrown behing them, over their heads, etc. Gabbert just isnt good. The scary thing is Johnson looked like hot garbage also. So unless their is a scenario where we get someone else (which I doubt), I have no idea what they are going to do. The only thing I do know is we owe Gabbert $2M for having nice hair.

We're stuck with Gabbert this year. Going to have to just ride it out with him as the backup and hope nothing happens to Kap. Next year we'll trade or draft for a young cheap alternative.

I still believe that Gabbert will put it together and become a solid backup for us, he just needs more time.










































































lol, just kidding......he sucks but we are stuck with him
