And if Gabbert was so great they would have inquired about him instead of Kaep. I can do this all day.

Because one, you don't actually know if they poked around about Gabbert or anyone else on the team and two, Kaepernick is the one that requested the trade, so of course they're going to ask about him.

You admitting you're trying to act disingenuous and treat this as a game doesn't help the discussion. It would be better to just drop the discussion with the people you don't agree with before you let yourself get to that point.

How does it not make any sense?

If Gabbert was that great, why haven't the Broncos or any team for that matte traded for him? He makes $2M and according to WZ just needs good coaching. He has excellent mechanics, high football IQ and a better version of Alex Smith. Why hasn't any team inquired about him? Why isn't his name being thrown around?

As I said, I can play this stupid game.

Because he has not requested to be traded I camnot make it anymore simple than that for you. Kaep is the only QB on this team that has requested a trade!

Every QB goes through ups and downs. Joe was benched by Coach Walsh, and was traded later. For Kap the question is, can he come back? Has he been "figured out" by opposing defensive coordinators? Can he become a better QB. Everybody has an opinion. If he can do it on the field that will answer all questions. If he can't he could still make a great living as a backup for the next 8-10 years.

Thank you Bravo.

Let me get this right. While Gabbert is the BETTER QB. He is younger, has excellent mechanics and a high football IQ. A budding Brady that makes $2M/season no team has inquired about him because he didn't ask to be traded? Is this a joke? A league desperate for a QB hasn't dared kick the tires on Joe Montana Jr?

As I said, I can play this game of confirmation bias all day.
Kap was a cool dude for a while

Yes you might be able to play this game all day long but not with me. I see it my way you see it yours. I can see now there are some things a man just can''t fix. Go argue with someone else.

Because Gabbert and his agents haven't made it known he's looking to get out? Because Gabbert has never been in a SB? Because Gabbert is the modern Derek Carr in perception?

This is absolutely no different. So many fans hated Alex and the "Alexcuses." We're back at square one and some fans learned nothing from the dark ages.

And what's worse is that Kap's resume as a starter from 2012-2015 is leaps and bounds better than Alex's from 2005-2010. But still, fans want want to bail on the QB when the team and coaching staff have regressed.

WOW there is just no response for this statement...........Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds someone is trippin on some serious ACID

Trades only happen with players who request deals? Interesting.

I'll tell you one thing. If our GM is only kicking the tires on players who have requested to be traded, he should be fired on the spot. He should be kicking the tires on every player out there.

Well that tells me all I need to know. You must have really believed in what Nolan and Singletary and their 10 coordinators were selling. Did you defend Jim Hostler's play calling as well? Buy a Shaun Hill jersey?

I bet you have a CLOSET full of Kap jerseys don`t you?

So the team hasn't regressed? The coaching staff hasn't regressed?

Try again.

And Kaep beat out Alex....what does that make your boy? The guy that got beat out by JT O'Sullivan, Sean Hill and Troy Smith.

I can play this dumb game all day long.

I can be even more disingenuous than you can.

It seems like you been playing that dumb game every since Kap was drafted your know BlindKap,you have to be awful young,because the stuff you are saying sounds juvenile,it`s like surely you cannot be like that....you seem to have a 'opposition disorder.
