Funny story how Peyton would deal with wideouts that would try to one-hand catch things:

Workout won't do much good if he still can't read a defense.
Fun fact: Lamar Jackson's stats are almost exactly the same through 16 games as Kaepernick's first 16.

What I will love is every black TV/radio talking head pretending Kaep can recapture that 2013 season. Ignoring how pathetic he was the next three seasons after that year. Gotta kaw-tow that line or be called an uncle tom.
Lamar seems to be an actual QB that can run and not a RB that can throw a decent 10 yard pass. Wasn't a believer, but his improvements this year are very impressive. If that 65% completion rate and 8 yds gained per pass attempt stay legit; he's basically Vick with accuracy and able to progress to the 2nd or maybe 3rd option.

The difference with Lamar is you can see he knows what to do. You could see in Kaepernick's: Oh shit........
Some of Lamar's plays are designed runs. Kaepernick's never were.

>defeat divisional rival, running the table and turning things around for the rest of the season are now within the realm of possibility
>star DE gets in a tussle with their backup QB and whacks him over the head with his own helmet with <10 seconds left in the game
>DE is now almost certainly suspended for the rest of the season
When all else fails, the Browns will find a way to fail, I swear.

The big question will be: Who, if anyone, signs Kaepernick.
The other day, the local radio sportscaster mentioned that the workout is fine and all that, but Kaepernick still has a reputation for being a distraction and teams might not be so eager to take on a player who be a distraction in light of other high-profile players recvently being enough of a distraction that teams couldn't wait to cut or release them ASAP.
NGL, unless a team is
- If Kaepernick somehow gets signed and has a good showing (
I know, but bear with me), the league looks bad for its teams shunning him for the past few years. - If Kaepernick is signed and performs poorly, he looks bad and it gives his critics fodder to claim that this is why teams didn't want him for the past few years and that his kneeling protest is but a secondary reason.
- If Kaepernick goes unsigned, he'll likely whine again and try to sue for another settlement while the usual SJW activists scREEch about racism in the NFL that doesn't necessarily exist.
That was one nasty fight. Even if the players involved appeal their discipline, I can't see an arbitrator not upholding some sort of suspension -- especially for the guy that whacked the opposing QB upside the head with the latter's own helmet. Player safety and blows to head have been a focus in many sports in recent years due to concussions and other head-related injuries and contact. With that in mind, I can't see an arbitrator downgrading the discipline for that particular act to something less than a suspension.

Another thought I had is if he gets a job and the guys around him don't like him. The O-line constantly 'breaks down' and he gets pummeled on the field.The big question will be: Who, if anyone, signs Kaepernick.

Also, I think Garrett has worked his way up to a step below Burfict. This dude has anger issues.

That was one of the dirtiest things I have ever seen in football.
How little discipline do you have to lose yourself enough to rip somebody's helmet off and try to beat him with it? Unreal.

I'm trying to figure out what was happening while Garrett and Rudolph were on the ground. It does look like Rudolph's hand was caught or got jammed up under Garrett's facemask. Maybe he thought Rudolph was trying to gouge his eye or something? Totally insane reaction no matter what.

There is an angle where you see Rudolph try to rip off Garrett's helmet as they're going down and on the ground. It stays on and the guys get pulled to their feet. It starts at 1:20 if the timestamp doesn't work.

No one. The season is already over for the teams that suck. They suck because they need a QB, and this draft class is loaded with QBs (maybe 4-6 going in the 1st round) and they wouldn't risk draft position in the off chance Colin is better than their current starter. The teams already know Colin's ceiling: a shit first read QB that runs when the 5 yard slant isn't there. The crap teams will not pick up Colin to risk drafting the exponentially higher (or unknown) ceiling QBs of Tua, Herbert, Burrow, Fromm etc on rookie contracts. Then, add in losing a portion of your fan base with signing him.
The average teams (rookie, young QBs) don't need him as a back-up, because he's nothing more than a thorn in the side of the current starting QBs and the coaches and the good teams just don't need him.

Not to mention the market is going to he saturated with free agent QBs after this season.

Supposedly, the Steelers are looking at Kaepernick. (And no, it wouldn't bother me -- comparing kneeling during the anthem with some of the other shit various Steelers have done over the years, and the idea of complaining is absurd)
Same here. Rudolph is just getting over a concussion, too. WTF?
And thank you, Pouncey -- I wonder if he's going to take Primantis up on their offer?

Quick question for everyone here. How long do you think it will take for Lamar to get plastered to the turf? It just looks like an accident waiting to happen, as a Russell Wilson fan it just looks like Lamar is just trying to get the TD’s and is not protecting himself.
Granted as a Chargers fan I would like to take 20% of Lamars speed and give it to Rivers can survive our atrocious offense of line.

I don't know when, but it's very high. He's averaging 14 rushes a game the last 5 games. That's basically starting RB type attempts outside the few bell-cows still left. He's bound to catch a blindside hit sooner rather than later.
