Given his performance this season, one problem I can see is that Harbaugh backed the wrong horse in Colin Kaepernick.
Kaepernick is the next one that’s got to go.
He’s a classless punk. And he’s not the only one.
I long for the classy days of DeBartolo, Walsh, Montana, Young, Rice, Craig, Clark...
You're right. That's what it was. Two years ago it looked to many (including Harbaugh) that Kaepernick would become a great quarterback. But it turned out that he's not going to be the star they hoped for. That mistake did Harbaugh in.
I think every coach in the NFL would have chosen Kaepernick over Smith.
Colin Kaepernick is just not that good. Running, he’s fantastic. Make him stay in the pocket though, and he breaks down.
Well, you know, just one more example (RG III, Michael Vick) that the “running quarterbacks” can’t handle the NFL. Yes, a QB is better if he is a little mobile (Aaron Rogers, Drew Brees) but even a statue like Manning or Brady can thrive-—but a primarily running QB? No. They never master the throwing fundamentals.
