reddogblitz Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Be careful what you wish for. I still think Kap has got some upside to him. He is a dynamic player & if anybody could get something out of him it is Chan. When he gets cut he will sign with the Jets on the cheap my guess is so it would be little risk on the Jets part. If Colin gets cut there will be a parade Brinks trucks coming to his house to lure him to a new team. With his back to back NFC Championship games and the scarcity of decent QBs, no one is going to sign him cheap I suspect.

QuoteTheRaven83 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Chan is an offensive genius and made Fitz and Spiller look like competent players. That says a lot, so I think Kaepernick under Gailey could potentially be dangerous.
Doc Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 He'll likely get offered the same contract the 49'ers gave him. Basically a "show me" deal.
nonprophet Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Remember William Hurt? A great actor. "Body Heat" And then he couldn't get a job. What happened? Same thing with Kaepernick. Did he forget how to play, or did the defenses figure out how to stop him, and he couldn't adjust? It's a mystery to me how a guy could be as effective as he was a couple years ago, and then be looked at like last week's trash. Are you sure you're talking about the right guy? Considering that most actors earn a living as waiters, William Hurt has had a great career. Check out his IMDB page, the guy's been in at least one movie released every year since "Body Heat" except for '84, '89 and '03.

Check out his IMDB page, the guy's been in at least one movie released every year since "Body Heat" except for '84, '89 and '03. I believe Hurt won an Oscar and had three more Oscar nominations after Body Heat, not to mention a very active/lucrative career. Maybe that's Utah John's point. Maybe he's suggesting Kaep will do better after SF than before??? Edited February 3, 2016 by hondo in seattle

Maybe he meant Micky Rourke, who had a career decline after some early success.
reddogblitz Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Maybe he meant Micky Rourke, who had a career decline after some early success. Perhaps they were thinking of Tippy Hedren? She was great in The Birds and then poof, nothing.
Doc Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Maybe John Hurt? Had that alien burst out of his chest and then...nothing.
Solomon Grundy Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 @nydnsports EXCLUSIVE: Colin Kaepernick wants out of 49ers, in with Jets: sources http://m.nydailynews.com/sports/football/jets/colin-kaepernick-49ers-jets-sources-article-1.2518118?cid=bitly&utm_content=bufferf2b7a&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=NYDNSports+Twitter Is it because he'd like to market his brand in the bright lights of NYC?
YoloinOhio Posted February 4, 2016 Author Posted February 4, 2016 Is it because he'd like to market his brand in the bright lights of NYC?he has a "brand"?@jasonlacanfora Bottom line with Kaepernick - jets have not and are not interested. Colin has wanted out for quite some time and this impending divorce... Was reported months ago. Hiring of Chip Kelly changed nothing. He's done nothing to build a relationship and a trade remains very likely... Kap continues to rehab daily in Vail and will do so into the spring. No plans to be in San Fran for the Super Bowl or anything else... Makes sense for 49ers to try to put on public face about keeping him, for trade leverage, etc, but there are major trust issues here

Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I agree. Fitz is the perfect backup. Teams just keep trying to stretch him into the main guy. Which he soon proves he isn't. He always has had the knack of being overconfident when he is under pressure and the game is on the line, and throwing a pick at the worst times. He never has changed that habit, never will. But as a vet backup,name someone active better at that roll. You are not a backup if you don't have flaws that limit you from being the main guy. What if he is Tony Romo and in a couple more yrs he stops throwing ints
ALF Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) "I don't want Kaepernick," Marshall told ESPN's First Take on Wednesday morning. "I think he's good. My guy's Fitz. It's nothing against Kaepernick, but what I'm saying is that I have my quarterbacks and I'm good." http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000631784/article/brandon-marshall-i-dont-want-colin-kaepernick Fitzmagic, looks like another big payday for a good guy Edited February 4, 2016 by ALF
Maury Ballstein Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Keep fitz....its best for us. Let him fitzpicksix it up for 2 more Bills wins next year

Before geno got clocked, he was saying the same things about him.
BuffaloFan68 Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Kaep would probably do well in Chans system. I'm sure you would see a lot of 5 wide.
Kirby Jackson Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Keep fitz....its best for us. Let him fitzpicksix it up for 2 more Bills wins next year This ^^ As long as Fitz is there he will commit soul crushing turnovers. He always makes the mistake at the most inopportune time.
Beerball Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 marshall knows they aren't getting Kap and is saying all the right things. Before geno got clocked, he was saying the same things about him.yeah because Marshall has always been one to say the right thing & never allow his true feelings be known.
Doc Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I hope the Jets give Fitz a nice large contract extension.
