Kaepernick, the new Tebow

OldMaid · 11-25-2012, 07:10 PM

Careful there.
Beginners' luck still. Two games and he has been annonited as an elite qb.
The media is running with Kaepernick like they did last year with Tebow. Whatever happend to Tebow? LOL

Cruel thing to do to a person. Hopefully, Kaepernick wont' buy the media talk and take it too seriously.

Go

8-8 or 9-7. That would be great for this year.

Kaepernick is very good. He's no Tebow.

Yeah, at least Kaepernick has some skill ... I still chuckle at how John Fox in Denver referred to his offensive scheme with Tebow as a 'no-pass option' offense.

One glaring difference between the two (outside of talent) is Kaepernick is a punk.

I haven't followed the guy much off the field but why is he a punk? I haven't seen anything to led me to that.
Once again I don't follow the guy much

You don't have to follow him only have to watch his last game to see it. For example, didn't slide, took a good hit because of it in the red zone, got up and spiked the ball at the defensive players who hit him (like a punk), 15 yard unsportman penalty.
I'm kinda old school though, I like the players who let their play speak for them. When I say he is a punk, he is one of a huge bunch of young players just like that. He undeniably has great talent and a HUGE arm. He is the starting QB and therefore leader of the team, act like it or go play for the Panthers.

I gotta' agree with this sentiment. Let your play do the talking. The one thing I liked best about Barry Sanders was he would just flip the ball to the ref after every touchdown. No dance, no 'in-your-face', he knew how to act like he'd scored before.

When Kaepernick became the starting QB, they started with all the human interest stuff about all the adversity he's faced to become an NFL QB and blah, blah, blah, blah ... and I thought 'rubbish', let's see how the kid handles a little success before we put him on a pedestal.

Looks like he might have a chip on his shoulder, eh?

They said the same thing about RGIII. RG won't even play next year. That's two QB/runners in RG and Tebow that didn't work out. Kaepernick won't either. All it's going to take is one hit when he takes off with somebody waiting for for him. The NFL is very unforgiving in this aspect. Either stand back there and throw the ball or find yourself having a very short NFL career.

As long as he stays off the Jets, he should be ok.
