Kaepernick wasn't too hurt to play for all five of those games

He also had a better winning percentage in the first five games than in the remaining eleven, so I'm not sure that is necessarily the right indictment of his abilities.

TheChirurgeon posted:Kaepernick wasn't too hurt to play for all five of those games He wasn't cleared by his own doctor to even practice until the very end of July, and I can't remember the date the team's doctors cleared him. The word from the coaches (and all the beat reporters backed it up) was that he was having trouble because of lost muscle mass while recovering from surgery; you may recall the reports of arm fatigue/"dead" arm. They started him just about as soon as they physically could.

Sure, in that both wins were over the Rams so if you compare 5 games to 11 games, it's gonna look bad I guess?

I know he wasn't cleared to practice until July, but I think you're forgetting a fairly large part of the whole ordeal was the contract renegotiation. Per Rotoworld, in October: Rotoworld posted:Bleacher Report's Jason Cole reports the 49ers are expected to guarantee Colin Kaepernick's remaining per-week roster bonuses as part of Kaepernick's restructured deal.

Per Rotoworld, in October: Kap started his first game of the season on Oct 16. Edit: Ninja edit on the date! vvvv It wasn't a fairly large part of the ordeal if he only missed a game (maybe 2?) because of it, is my point. Contract negotiations also don't reflect on Chip Kelly, which is my larger point. Coldforge fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Feb 27, 2017 |

Coldforge posted:Kap started his first game of the season on Oct 11. Yeah, that was written on October 7th, right before his first start. The point is that his first start happened to come right after the 49ers renegotiated his contract to be protected in 2017 if Kaep got hurt. e: I guess you could argue that Kelly couldn't *really* start Kaep given the situation with his contract, but it's not like kowtowing bought him another season TheChirurgeon fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Feb 27, 2017 |

As a primarily NBA fan it blows my mind that 5/$41M is considered a huge payday. That would maybe buy you a mid to low tier back up that plays 10min a game.

I don't think any of us are arguing that Chip was a good coach but you are really trying to reach to find examples of his bad coaching and his handling of the dismal quarterback situation on the 49ers is not really one of them.

So if I were to meet Laurent Duvarney-Tardif after he gets his doctorate now that he's signed this huge deal, do I have to address him as Dr. Duvarney-Tardif? I mean, that's just hard to say even if he was an average doctor. Let alone someone I'm going to have to argue about football things on message boards for years since apparently he's the future in KC. (I'm waiting on the guaranteed money before I freak out a whole lot about this)
