Hmmm. Correct me if I'm wrong(and you will) but doesn't the header imply that colon will get signed? I'm thinkin' not. Maybe he needs to try the kenya football league.

Brock Osweiler is headed back to the Denver Broncos, and people are not happy he got picked up before Colin Kaepernick.

Who are the people "not happy" that Osweiler got picked up before Kaepernick?

ESPN?

There's two chuckleheads here in the Chicago radio market on WGN that do a weekend sports show that do nothing but prattle on and on about how they cannot believe Kaepernick hasn't been signed "yet."

Kaepernick's politics are far less a problem for him than are, oh, say his STATS which show he isn't worthy of playing in the NFL. That's really all there is to it.

If Kaepernick had better stats and shown himself capable of running an NFL caliber offense, he'd have been signed by now. The proof? Look at the increasing number of idiots "taking a knee" each week that are playing in the NFL.

Kaeperdick should not want to play in the NFL. He should totally boycott this evil racist society. Let him play football in one of his favorite African countries instead.

Yeah, I doubt Vance Joseph - Denver’s black head coach - has any hidden agenda in saying “no thanks” to Kaepernick. Osweiler isn’t much good, but he knows Denver’s offense and the players there. Kaepernick would need the offense to be changed to suit his peculiar style.

Kaep apparently admires communism. I hear Venezuela is looking for a QB. The pay may not be to his liking, but it’s about what his actual skills should merit. Why doesn’t the lying prima-dona do what Tebow did when dropped by the NFL; go build a hospital in a needy country, or at least go hustle cases of food and bottled water in Texas? Can’t he go somewhere and at least APPEAR to give a damn?

I cant imagine why no one wants to hire him? Doesnt he represent the character and moral standing of every team in the NFL.

Does he actually play a position or is he expecting to be hired on his pre-game anti-American protest abilities?

He decided to play “flag” football, and now no one wants him. He’s about as toxic as can be.

Good, and all those Brown Clowns who did the same, should get the same.

"Hey, man. What's a Brock Osweiler, man?"


"Awww, man. Don't you know nuthin', man? That's one of Santa's reindeers, man."

Yes, it should have been written “instead of” not “ahead of.” Of course, “instead of” implies that Krapper was being considered, which he probably wasn’t.

:^)

We know he REJECTED the offer to stay where he was at a given price.

The rest of the NFL has determined his skills are NOT WORTH A HIGHER PRICE!

It’s time someone in the NFL community states the obvious: CK is a one trick pony quarterback. He was brought in by Jim Harbaugh to exploit a temporary inability by defenses to cope with the read option offense that Kapernick ran in college. Once defenses adjusted Kapernick was forced to stay in the pocket to throw but takes too long to decide where to throw and get the ball away with his long delivery motion resulting in sacks, hurries and scrambling runs. In his defense he was playing behind a poor offensive line but it’s dubious that he would do much better behind a good one. It should also be noted that most of his better stats were achieved after the game had been decided when the opposition had gone into prevent mode on defense.

Perhaps Brock is more talented than Colin, and more of a team player.

Just thinking out loud here.

Elway got a deal with Brock.
One year contract for $765,000
The Loser Browns eat the rest of his 15 million contract.
Eat that Kapernick.

The Denver head coach is from Louisiana - like David Duke. He went to a private high school. He’s obviously a white racist. I mean, just look at the guy’s picture. /s

K’s already cost the NFL loads of money and many, many viewers, by bringing politics into money-making entertainment sport and thereby alienating the fans from professional football. He could be a player or a SJW, but not both.

Osweiler’s professional behavior gives him the edge if all else is equal.

Any team signing Colin K would be crazy. And financially suicidal

I love the author's snarky finish. Almost as much of a smart ass as I am. Good job!
