Can't wait to see Smelter catching passes

Hopefully the QB is settled asap

 

[Fozz]

That defense looks TERRIBLE. No wonder he was an all-star in the CFL...But let's see if he'll make an impact this offseason.

Interesting press conference. I'm glad Kelly kept Rathman...and I was surprised with the talk of considering Mike Nolan as a possible DC...I wonder if people will be happy with that, if he were hired.

49ers have offered Mike Vrabel the DC job. 49ers waiting to hear his answer per sources #49ers

 

[johnson1]

LOL @ Flea Market version of AJ Green

looking like a homeless man's Rod Streater

 

[lb510]

Haven't had a big target that could go up and get the ball in a while. Ideally if he could add 10 pounds without his speed really suffering that would be perfect.

BRUH i posted a mock draft his morning, but since i registered a new account, it has to be approved by mods because the post has "links" in it. WAITING ON YOU MODS.

this vrabel signing could have an impact on our draft. you'll see what i am alluding to when it gets posted.

 

[CrownRoyalDaddy]

Big news with the Vrabel offer if true. Would be very interesting. I approve.

Best part of the press conference was Chip owning Maiocco but it wasnt that sequence mentioned above. Chips response was about meeting with the players personally hut i forget the direct quote. Awkward silence ensued lol.

I liked dude overall. Excited

[niketalker23]

Im watching the presser now, and I like the vibe Im getting from Chip..


The difference between Tomsula and Chip is night and day.

 

[jewelknows]

Saw some clips of the presser. He's ready to go and coach that's for dam sure.

Man I miss 52 too....them dam feets

 

[danikerhino]

He sounds loads more confident and coherent compared to Tomsula, less rambling, more focused.

 

[moe200069]

He sounds loads more confident and coherent compared to Tomsula, less rambling, more focused.

not to mention, far less sweat and not every sentence ending with "okay"

Jimmy T borrowed that old Juvenile-Ha philosophy of ending every phrase with the same word...but 400 degreez was my **** though

 [h1]The 49ers’ relationship with Kaepernick becomes even more bizarre[/h1]
Posted by Mike Florio on January 21, 2016, 12:02 PM EST

AP
When the 49ers hired Chip Kelly to coach the team, many assumed that he’d want to try to make quarterback Colin Kaepernick  into the star he was becoming under Jim Harbaugh. If that’s what Kelly plans to do, he has a strange way of making his intentions known.

Kelly has tried to deflect any and all comments about Kaepernick, citing the prohibition in the Collective Bargaining Agreement on communications with players before the start of the offseason program. Kelly twisted that rule to the point of implausibility in a Wednesday interview with CSN Bay Area.

“I’m not allowed to comment about [Kaepernick] in terms of how he fits into any system because of the CBA rules of we’re not allowed to discuss football, I’m not allowed to say who fits where and how they fit,” Kelly said. “So I’m gonna wait until April 4 to discuss Kap and the offense.”

First of all, Kelly is allowed to talk to the media about players under contract with his team. Said NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy via email, “Not an issue here for a coach to talk about his own players.” Likewise, the NFL Players Association pointed to no provision that would extend the rules limiting communication with  players prior to the offseason program to communications about  players prior to the offseason program.

Indeed, Kelly had plenty to say about quarterback Nick Foles  when Kelly was introduced as the head coach of the Eagles.

“In terms of Nick, I know him because we played against him [at Oregon],” Kelly said in January 2013. “I’m a huge fan of his. He’s tough. It’s an attribute that I think a lot of people don’t understand of how hard it is and what toughness means to the quarterback spot. To just be able to stand in the pocket and throw the football [is tough]. We hit him as many times as we could hit him and he just kept getting up and making plays. He completed a 13-yard pass left handed against us once and I remember just standing on the sideline shaking my head [saying], ‘What do we have to do to stop him?’ He’s a competitor, he’s accurate, so I’m excited about that.”

Making the situation with Kaepernick even more bizarre is that Kelly plans to not even begin the process of talking to or about his quarterback until April 4 — four days after the team has to decide whether to allow Kaepernick’s $11.9 million salary to become fully guaranteed or to trade or cut him.

If Kelly doesn’t want Kaepernick, this is the smart way to play it, since it allows the 49ers to try to make a team that wants Kaepernick think he won’t be cut. If Kelly wants Kaepernick, it’s a weird way to go about making him feel welcome.

Consider a new coach saying these same things about Tom Brady  or Aaron Rodgers  or Cam Newton  or any other clear-cut franchise quarterback. If it’s a no-brainer that the quarterback is staying, the comment would be, “Of course he’s our quarterback. Why are you even asking that?”

Kelly’s remarks create the impression that Kaepernick won’t be the quarterback, and that Kelly and the 49ers are holding out hope that they can get something of value in return for the balance of his contract.

[hyper cutter]

That is a really crappy article. Kelly did say to ESPN he's excited about having Kaep and Gabb. He literally said that helped him bring him here. Hate when writers ignore facts on promise just to push something out.

what a great game.

unbelievable how good our running game was. harbaugh and g-ro run game is unmatched. they were extremely creative and diverse in their play design. and that line, man. they were damn good.

delanie walker was pivotal to making everything work in that offense. dude literally did everything.

i think that might have been the first game that i noticed kap would only throw to his first read. fortunately for him, his first read was open a lot because defensive coordinators had not keyed in on this weakness.
