But he's not so that is irrelevant.....a big name such as that is a huge land for the agency when he could sign with anyone and gives them a shit ton of credibility with other athletes. Jay Z can turn his shits into gold and has made himself available to athletes in his agency, so I dont see this as anything but a smart move for someone who needs help navigating NYC.

Alex Smith was the starter for a great deal of 2012 and they ran it more and more as the season went on. Almost 7 times a game for Kaep, plenty of runs to get KOd in this league.

edit: That number is also probably going to go up more this year too.
They ran the read/option 11 times against Atlanta. Number of times Kaep kept it and ran, 0. He is only running the ball when it is wide open and there isn't much of a chance for him to take a hit. When Kaepernick runs the ball he simply is not taking the hits like other running QB's do... I don't know how else to explain it.

Then teams will start taking away the rb as the first option and make him run. Not many trends last for long in the league before they get figured out when you have a bunch of tape. The Wildcat went from like 7ypc for an entire season to gone from the league almost overnight.

I personally dont think teams like SF or Seattle will be as successful with it this year.

Not really. It's fucking retarded. People travelling to the Super Bowl are going to be mad pumped until they realize the town they're going to is fucking Santa Clara - 45 miles away from SF. I'll definitely go to a game when the new stadiums opens because I'm sure it will be great, but that's over an hour commute to get to the stadium. I'm sure the traffic would make it longer if you were to drive. The stadium might as well be in San Jose.
To be fair, Candlestick was a fucking nightmare to get to even though it was technically in city limits. Also, if you've ever paid attention to anyone that tried to build anything in SF you realize that San Francisco is run by nut jobs and it's the NIMBY capital of America. It's a miracle that the Giants got their stadium built. I can't blame the 9ers a bit for going out of town.

How will they do that? It's not like the offense telegraphs when they're running an option play. Pistol formation could be any one of a half dozen plays from the exact same alignment. I'm not saying it can't or won't be figured out, but I think the read and SF's offense is going to be pretty awesome next year.

You mean like GB did?

The read/option was only ran 6% of the Niners offensive snaps after Kaep took over (with the RB getting the handoff the majority of the time). Some DC finds a creative way to shut down the read/option... I think the Niners will be fine.

I think Azeth is more annoying than Cathan by far, but at least he isnt as dumb.

I know the ordinances are strict, but the new Warriors arena is looking like a sure thing now. And that's a team that's been dogshit for years.

Oddly enough, Atlanta focused on taking away the QB's ability to run out of the read option in the NFC title game. Which is fine, you're just almost down a defender or half a defender against Gore that way.

The same agency about to get Robinson Cano a ginormous contract after he fired Scott Boras.

God you are a dumbass sometimes.
I guess you missed the part where his agent has never ever written a sports contract before. But keep telling me how I'm the retarded one here.

haha the comments

At first I was sure this had to be a fake. But then I saw that Lewis was already 10 yards behind the play.

Daezuel, what did you think about the Rams signing this monster: Terrell Brown - played as a defensive lineman, and Fisher is going to put him in offense.

6' 10" 403lbs. Jeezus tits, that's huge.

Looks like they're trying him at Right Tackle so he'd be a backup for sure. Dunno, will have to see him play!

Im sure an entire sports agency doesn't collaborate like normal businesses within their ranks for something as big as this, right? I'm sure they will just handwrite that shit amirite??????? Copy/paste it from the Contrax 4 Dummies handbook? Holy shit you managed to somehow get both feet in your mouth.

But please, keep crying about it every other day...you break new ground with every butthurt post.

It's almost as if he believes the contract will be written with rap lyrics or some shit.
