When did I say that? I'll give you one chance to back up that claim.

Please find the quote where I called people who disagreed with me were racist. Post the quote. I have never called anyone here racist.

Are you serious? You trying to deny what you did yesterday? Playing victim? All day you insinuated that people don't like Kap because of his skin color, not because of the way he plays or presents himself. So enjoy!!

The funniest thing are the people who are upset at this insinuation. I've never seen a QB more criticized by how he dresses, talks, wears his hat, etc. The amount of tattoos he has. How wearing headphones pissed people off. Then there's all the subtle jabs I've heard over the years. There has always been an undercurrent there. Now before everyone loses their minds...SOME of the criticism is valid and comes from a fair place while I'm sure come of it isn't...and if you're going to deny that then OK we'll have to agree to disagree..but if there are homers and haters and we can all agree that haters tend to find silly reasons to hate a guy...why isn't the color of his skin a reason too? Have we ever heard a 9er QB called a thug? Ever heard any talk about the way they dressed? Any talk about lack of intelligence or lack of film study? I hear the same exact stuff about Cam. The same guy where a writer picked apart his smile. So yea, people choose really silly reasons to hate a player and Kaep is no exception, neither is Cam or Alex or really anyone else. And this fan club that Gabbert has developed is odd.

Of course it does and that was the point I was trying to make. Not surprising I was attacked. I see a whole bunch of confirmation bias in here.

The use of the word has evolved recently.

Are people really trying to dispute that the word "thug" isn't used almost exclusively to describe unsavoury black people? Kinda sad the lengths people are going to disprove that.

Of course he's going to backstep and say he didn't call anyone a racist even though that is what he insinuated......

Still waiting on the quote where I called anyone racist. You understand the difference between being called a racist and a statement having racial undertones, right?

Stop harassing me in PMs. Move on.

It would be a good argument. I couldnt really give an answer personally. Peyton always carried his teams, and there Offenses were always there strong areas. In the playoffs there defenses didnt seem to help close out games. WIth our defense? I Mean i honestly think biggie may be right. Maybe not two but i could bet some money on one superbowl at least from 11-13.

Ironically the 2006 Colts Super Bowl their defense was a big big part of it. During the 2006 Playoffs, Peyton had 3 TD's and 7 Interception.

Nah, we need to do better than Bradford. He's not good.

Definitely need a timing, rhythm passer. Would rather draft our own guy.

Draft guy will need time to develop. Someone like Bradford could serve as interim guy and mentor for draftee until he develops. Definitely wouldn't want that guy learning from Kaep.

This. I wasn't too upset after the Giants game because I knew it was going to be a rough season but at least I was entertained and felt like my time wasn't completely wasted.

I figured this season would be rough. But I didn't expect the offense to crater like it has. It makes the games very difficult to watch. Kap used to be such a fun QB to watch, but his confidence is absolutely shot. He's not seeing the field well and when he does find a guy open, he's off target.

Comparing eras, this team has more talent...Boldin and Smith are good WRs, and Simpson showed a bit today for a first game back. Hyde is good, Celek is good...VD was better today...but the OL and Kaepernick are just really sad right now. And it's impossible to tell which imacts the other more negatively!

Im talking about how bad they looked until Peyton came along. A team that relied on its Defense when Tebow played, Peyton came along and the dude broke records right away and there offense became unstoppable.

If Peyton had joined the Niners, they'd have two Super Bowl wins by now. Instead, both the Niners and Peyton have none.

We would have had two Super Bowl wins if Alex Smith had stayed here.

LOL. I sent you one PM asking you to come defend your boy Kap. Far from "harassing you". You're really oversensitive.

Until proven otherwise, I believe Gabbert is capable of the same level of performance as Bradford and will not cost a draft pick.

I dunno, I think zero personally, Smith would have beaten Baltimore imo but I think we lose with Smith against GB so we wouldnt of even gotten to the bowl in the first place. Where as I think we lose with Kap against NO, when alex won, but Kap wouldve won against the NYG where alex lost. All because these two dudes bring different traits. I want neither of them as our QB. but riding either of them for a full season i think would have resulted in zero superbowls.. We made the right move in getting rid of Smith, Now we need to make the right move and get rid of kaepernick. Not because theres a better guy out there that we can trade or pick up in FA, but we need to go back to the drawing board and start drafting. We wont win anything with kap. we had a defense like i said for 11-13 that we probably wont see on the 49ers again in our lifetimes.
