Whatever. Allen's the guy. McCarron was bad in camp and preseason. Allen goes down, you're f d. Got it. No one has a #1 QB for a backup, unless they are paying starter $ for him, and cap hell is what McBeanes are trying to stay out of, not go straight back into with Teddy , et al.
For example, Jimmy G. goes down, 49ers are f'd. So, did the 49ers mismanage the most important position in pro sports Mr. King? Until Jimmy G. went down, 49ers were praised for killing it at the QB position-- hell they gambled on Jimmy G. last year and won, and were named heroes. Now they're f'd and look stupid rolling out Beathard (who slung it pretty good last night). It's how it goes with the "most important position in sports". Next.
McBeanes don't give a cr-p what King says. They'll go with Nate (BTW, not many guys can come off the bench and throw that TD ball to Jones) and go from there. Allen's the guy. In fact, this actually works out well as Allen could probably use a couple games watching on the sidelines.
They had to rip the bandaid off and get Allen in there. So far, so good. He hasn't gotten killed yet. Couple weeks watching probably good. Trust the Process.
