No we not, we talking about his whole body of work, and his confidence, and his effort, and his improvement in six years.

You could have said his 2014 yr was his best year stat wise...you think anyone on our team step it up a notch last season? Everyone sucked a big ol' dick.

From what I remember he never played well during practices...how about we wait and see some preseason games?

Lol. We already went through this a couple of pages ago. Kaps stats dropped drastically in the 2ND half of 2014.

when you have injuries to the f**king Oline... and you end up with Marcus Martin AND Jonathan Martin blocking for you ... yeah I'd say your stats could drop...lol.

But but but Gabbert did better with the same exact line.

In preseason? The goal is not to put up points and win games in preseason. It's to work on different things and escape injury. I can't believe people are arguing about preseason. LMAO.

Can't wait to read the excuses come week 1

He was given a starting job for 2 1/2 yrs and played like the worst QB in the league. He played awful last yr and should have won 1 game.

Got out played by Manziel then threw 3 INT in Cin the next week.

Yeah I disagree with "fact" part of it.

The stats are barely better than Kap's.
I will agree Kap was not playing well last season...but neither was the line.

I don't have a preference in these two QBs, May the best man win and take us to the promised land

Hot damn!

I agree with blindfury! Stranger things have happened

I'm excited to see Kap perform in the pre-season. This is finally the true evaluation for him.

- He's healthy
- He's got an upgrade at HC, OC, and OL for coaching
- He's got an upgraded O-line projecting to be Staley-Garnett-Kilgore-Tiller-Davis with former starters Martin, Brown, and Beadles as depth.
- He's got another year under his belt with his rapport with the WRs - Smith, Ellington, Patton, and Simpson
- He's got matured TE play with McDonald and Bell's development
- He's got a healthy Hyde with some new depth with Draughn, Harris, and Taylor.

Is it perfect? Nope. Who knows about the TEs and WR's level of talent. But with Kap's playing style, and Kelly's offensive scheme, he should be a clear front runner for the job. Maiocco hinted that Gabbert is in the lead, but that doesn't mean jack when they haven't played a down of preseason football.

And if he doesn't? Then this is another York/Baalke/Marathe fault after the firing of Harbaugh and the trading of Alex Smith.

Preseason means nothing and neither does practice. Week 1 is when it all begins!

Preseason abd practice might determine who starts that first game.

Still a smart move. KC gave up 3 picks for him. I'd do that trade any day of the week.

Don't forget to mention WHO the two QBS played last year. Look at 8 games and tell me which QB had a tougher schedule??

Right. There's no point of jumping the gun when both players being in year 1 of the system, i doubt 100% of the playbook has been installed.

Yup. And even if it has, it takes time and reps to get it down. So, watching them practice it us one thing. Sering them run it in a few series against another team is an entirely different level.

True, also gotta take consideration of dumbing down playbook in pre-season. You don't wanna show too much and give people some good tape to prepare for you. Chip knows this(most HCs do), here's to hoping a couple new wrinkles/players are explosive enough to make the offense go.

Basically my point is that Kap SHOULD outperform Gabbert in pre-season to start day 1 of the regular season. It's going to be our first real sample of his talent level.
