Kaepernick, the new Tebow

TheOak · 11-29-2012, 10:19 AM

He is going to have a rookie bad game and drop 3 INT's. Even the ELITE do it... except due to the timing of all of this, there is a good chance it comes during a play off game.

His skill set is good, his game management is not.. we saw the penalties from rookie mistakes when we played him..

I would go with Smith... A proven stable commodity.

Bumping to say that HOLY CRAP he played great tonight. I hate to say nice things about the 49ers, but that was kind of fun to watch.

Did.nt he shame us with those same running plays. The man has guns like a linebacker. As long as they and the clowns are still in it. I will pull for the seadogs

I was listening to the game on the radio & the announcers were saying something about him being able to throw a 90mph fastball? I wasn't aware of him playing baseball prior to the NFL, but they were definitely referring to those guns.

Had a discussion about this topic at work today. It's fools gold. He fooled the Packers. After what happened to RG3 they were not exspecting it. It won't happen again.

Tebow hasn't been in the NFL long enough now has he played enough for there to be a new version of someone that has yet to be a success.

I'd compare him more to Cam Newton. Newton looked awesome for about a season then teams started figuring him out and he came back down to earth (well everything but his ego did).

Rookies either look like crap year 1 or look like the next Marino....

Year two reality sets in... Teams have enough game film to know whats going on...

This season Kaepernick is still in the "I took someone elses job" mode... Wait until the off season when SF brings in a few QB's to try out... The high
will go away.

Fair enough, it could take a few games, a season and two , on and off filed to see what you have there depending on how long the person has been the starter.
Kaepernick has not played a full season. Tebow did not either.

I cannot remember the story of Steve Young.
He was there watching, waiting for a chance being second to Joe Montana.
He chance came and he did well. He went all the away with the 49'ers under the worst pressure of following that qb, Joe Montana.

What was it? Luck? Some real stats and talent of Young? The team and coaching staff ?
All of it I would say.
