He studiously avoids noting that Kaeps is not owed that money from Denver, but San Fransisco. Denver is not currently obligated, so the fact that Kaepernick is “legally entitled to” the money Denver wants off the table really doesn’t have a whole lot to do with current negotiations, other than the fact that it is…

I’ll start by saying I got no dog in this fight. Don’t care about the 49ers, the Broncos or Kaepernick.

He did change it, check the url

Goddangit, he went and fixed the headline out from under me. I swear it used to say “Pulls Off the Sneakiest Player.” Which would explain my extremely witty and timely comment

Maybe...but he’s a CA guy originally, and signed extension the day USC hired Helton. And as weird as last few years have been, I’d rather deal with USC boosters than Texas boosters. To say nothing of the weather.

The only surefire way to reduce the number of kickoff returns is to reduce the number of kickoffs. You don’t score, you don’t kick off. So the 2015 49ers offense wasn’t just hopelessly anemic; they were actually making the game SAFER.

Kickoffs are live balls so especially with a high kick, you risk the kicking team recovering the ball if you don’t field it.

I feel sorry for you... Why not just cancel the entire game? Having Devin Hester on your team for 8 years will make you appreciate and respect the kick off return.

I think the point for a lot of these young guys that come into the league isn’t that they learn from the veteran QB ahead of them. It’s that the psyche of an NFL qb is fragile and if you break it early you never get it back. So all of these guys were studs in a less talented college game. They were able to excel while…

Actually the opposite is true. Coaching helps but players often learn as much or more through peer coaching. Thats why you see teams with good coaches but far too many young players underperform.

Really, every single NFL team is trying to find their own Aaron Rodgers—and there’s only one Aaron Rodgers.

Naturally, the star of House Of Cards would gravitate to a franchise that has one good season for every three shitty seasons.

My wife would do this sleeper burn on people in the 90's. When Usual Suspects first came out, if she got into fights with people or if they were being assholes she would just blurt out without context: “Kevin Spacey is Keyser Soze!” And the person would just become confused. Then a few days or weeks or even months…

Oh no, it’s totally legal, that’s why the can was covered in tape, the referees replaced the ball and there is an article on Deadspin.

We only criticize non-union referees around here

Arizona-Santa Clara?

Exactly, which is why I don’t understand all the “MY BRACKET IS SCREWED!” bravado I’m seeing. Everyone’s bracket is screwed so, while you might not win Warren Buffett’s money, you’re likely still alive in your pool.

Couldn’t they have just picked him up after he is cut during training camp?
