Chloroform girl, how have you been?
Don't let me catch you sleeping again
You're only alive because I like you
It's been three years since you've seen the sunlight
But I know you're having fun
Bound, gagged and chained up in my basement
I'd give tony romo a call or see if bradford or bridge is available before I go after kaep
I didn't see the jets pats game or the controversial call of the non-td touchback until just now in a video. They should not have overturned that td on that call. At no point does the ball leave his person. If it hit the ground or fell out, I'd be ok with it but seriously that didn't look like much of a bobble and a bobble is not a fumble. Given there was still 8+ minutes left, no telling how game would have changed. Patriots would have played harder if score was closer. Patriots probably still would have won. But that was a bad call.

Why should Kaep get a chance to play instead of him?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I don't think Romo would leave and Bradford might be done for this year and Bridge won't even be able to play for a few weeks.

So, you'd go after a retired QB who's focused on broadcasting and thus doesn't have time to be working out or in shape (and has a very good chance of turning into a better broacaster than he ever was a QB) or two players who're currently injured ahead of Kaep?

He's a proven NFL caliber QB. At the very least, you're better off having at least one guy like that around to help the two unproven young kids they have on their roster right now. Also, he was actually decent last season despite having the 49ers roster around him.
Chloroform girl, how have you been?

Kaep was an amazing quarterback with a good coaching staff and a decent roster. He did a lot for the 49ers before we lost Jim Harbaugh and a lot of our big players.
Kaep was not amazing. He's been average to slightly below average every year beside 2012. That being said, even saying he's a slightly below average STARTING QB means this guy should have a job and he'd definitely be one of the best if not THE best back up in the league. AND A HELL OF A LOT BETTER THAN BRANDON WEEDEN. That's honestly what convinced me that he has a case and that's what convinced me that he was indeed being blackballed. The guys Tennessee worked out were really some putrid level QBs and Weeden being the best of those really speaks volumes. "Here comes Brandon Weeden" are the most terrifying words in sports if he's on your club.
Also, I didn't get the hype to sign Kaep when they were gonna start Hundley until I saw that Bella post, so like, thanks bella.
Hundley should get the start in Green Bay. He's been on the team for three years. He knows the playbook and presumably has a little bit of chemistry with the skill players. Even if Kaep is a better QB (which he is), knowing the playbook and chemistry with players is a HUGE advantage Hundley has over every other potential QB in the league. If GB were to bring anyone else to start, all they would be able to do is run basic plays.
Now you have to have a truly desperate situation to need Kaep (both starter and backup injured), because Kaep didn't go through camp, spring training, or the first 6 weeks of the season. He should have been on a roster from the get-go of course, but now I'm not sure he could help a team without some massive injuries to the position.

I'm not saying he's the second coming of Tom Brady or anything, but based on last seasons stats and the garbage he had around him and bearing in mind he was running an offence that was notionally designed for Blaine Gabbert (who was benched for him yet somehow still has a job in the NFL), I'd argue that putting him anywhere in the 15-25 range in a list of Best Active QBs is entirely reasonable.
The Kaepernick thing is somehting I've seen brought up plenty of places, basically from the standpoint of a) he's a local and b) he's been really good against the Pack in the past. And, y'know, the clear best free agent QB available.

Who said anything about anyone being brought in to start at QB?

For sure, I was being sincere about not getting the GB needs to sign Kaep now hype until you were like "just in case shit hits the fan on Hundley, they should have kaep instead of just the practice squad guy". Like I figured if they were going with Hundley, don't bother with Kaep(I'm also a bit of a Hundley believer).
My response saying he's not amazing was mostly directed at KTS who said he was amazing.
fwiw, the argument that "Oh, he knows the system and the play book, that's way more important than being a better QB" doesn't really hold up. Look at the 2017 Colts, for example, Jacoby Brissett took Scott Tolzien's job after 30 minutes of football and liek a week on the roster, because Scott Tolzien is garbage and Brissett is vaguely competent and all the familiarity with the players and the playbook can't change that.

I agree(hence why I think the Weeden thing is bullshit), but I honestly think Hundley can be p good and it's better to find out what they have in him now than after the re-sign him in 2 years(or let him walk and become a star somewhere else). And he's 5 years younger than Kaep. And yeah, I think that putting Kaep as the back up to Hundley would be a bit of confidence in case he goes down. The only downside is if it causes too much distraction in a Tebow-esque fashion. That'd really be my only concern with him in Green Bay.
Well, we don't know that Hundley isn't a good QB like we know Tolizen is. (also Toilzen is like a million years old)
Also, did Brissett really play that well initially, or is he just riding the hype of *not* being Tolizen? He's gotten better as he's gotten more familiar with things sure.
I made a joke when I said call bradford or bridgewater. MIN are rivals with GB after all. Guess no one realized that
I'd rather have old Romo than old Kaep, but don't think Romo would go for it. They should see what they got in Hundley and maybe look into kaep if that fails.
