My problem is that I've always thought Kaepers**t was not able to make accurate reads and decisions quickly enough to keep up with NFL defenses, and that was reinforced by the coaches saying they were simplifying the offense each and every year. That's more an aptitude thing than either an intelligence thing or learnable thing, so I've always been dubious on his improvement potential. Simplifying your offense is a formula to make you defensible.

Baalke said he gave Harbaugh his head on the qb position, and he wrote a contract to give himself a cheap out if it became necessary, I took that to mean he saw what I saw, and would entertain trade offers last summer. The sad part for me is that I think we could have gotten a first round pick a month ago, perhaps to a team likely drafting very high, which we could have used on a qb. After tonight, I think we're looking for a bag of Lays Classic Party Pack.

Ya wanna know the fastest way for me to lose all respect for the opinion of a poster? Intentional misspelling of a players name to make it derogatory.

Lame with a capital "L". Didn't even read the rest.

Sadly, this represents a good chunk of our pathetic fan base right now.

Hopefully most of them will go back to being Raider fans, like they were before the Niners got good again.

The only thing more annoying than altering a name to something derogatory is questioning other people's fandom.

"Got good" lol

Time to move on if we get a top10 or even a top5 pick.

This. I've noticed a few posters think that any little criticism of the team means you're a bandwagon fan or fake fan. Pretty immature, but then again, it is the internet.

"49ers got blown out by 40 points, terrible game for them"

reply:
"you're a fake fan, go back to being a Raider fan".

He might well be but when the guy to your left and your right suck as bad or worse it makes it hard to do your job well.

Context needed! Not may posts that one sided...on any side of the issues. Some prefer to avoid the panic a loss like this creates.

There has been some really good discussion tonight, criticizing Kaepernick, the coaches, management...but there are good counter arguments as well. The occassional "fake fan" comment usually comes from frustration.

My disagreement with your post is that responses are to "little criticisms." More like an evening of Don Rickles bad mouthing the team! That's OK too...

We got so many holes on this team the smart move would be to rebuild this o-line

Just heard a national CBS sports guy put Jay Cutler, RG3 and Kaepernick in the same group of very physically talented young QBs who have fallen far short of expectations with no indication they will every measure up. OUCH!
