Chip Kelly's "No Huddle" Offense

[rasheedfan2005]

The fuck?! The dude spends his time doing charities! He doesn't go to parties like Aldon and Johnny Freeagent. Seriously, this is one of the dumbest things I've read all week. He's one of the classiest people in the world.

I hope you're not judging him by how he wears his hat?

His name was thrown around in that hotel scandal a while back. Just hope he keeps clean. Ill admit though ive always been a niner fan i dont follow individual players like blazers. I do hate his hat though.

Alright, yeah, that hotel hooker business was not very cool. No charges were filed, and nobody was punished, but still: wasn't very cool either way. Don't pick up prostitutes and things like that won't happen.

I dont know much about gabbert but i think kaep is built perfectly for chips offense. Man, how cool would it be if we still had lamichael james? If gabbert is as good as you make him sound i certainly think we have a good problem getting to choose a qb from 2 good ones. Im just glad we got some lineman. Man we need some good o line for chips offense

Dude, James SUCKED. I'm sorry, but the dude was just strait up AWFUL. He went to Miami, and they put him on the practice squad before cutting him entirely, and now he's a FA, and nobody's knocking on his door. For good reason.

I know he balled out at Oregon, but some guys just don't do well at the big leagues. And he was a classic example.

Like you said: we definitely have a good problem, and it's a great problem to have deciding which QB to roll with. Many disagree that Kap would succeed in Kelly's offense, but I think he would. I can't wait to see him play in it, but I'm comfortable moving forward with Gabbert right now.

James was too fumble prone to make it against nfl tackles. But maybe chip could motivate him. Either way hyde is a beast if he stays healthy, certainly rather have him.

There are reports that the front office is going to make Kaep 3rd string if he doesn't beat Gabbert so they don't have to pay him about 2 MIL (over the course of the year) in roster or game-day bonuses. I think they should have taken (almost) anything for him in trade instead. Now they are basically going to be doing what WAS did to RGIII last year.

To me, Jame's problem wasn't his fumbling. He lacked even the most basic footwork, vision, and patience to play the RB position. And he NEVER got better; even the slightest.

I follow all the blogs daily, and I haven't heard anything like this. But, if it is indeed true, then what a miserable way to go.

Whether or not they want to pay him is irrelevant. As of April, he's guaranteed a very large sum of money. $14M, IIRC. The 9ers HAVE to pay that.

But here is the gist of it:

But why are the Niners hiding Colin? What does his absence from the pictures mean about his future with the team?

I think his absence is symbolic. I think the Niners want him to fade into the background, drop off the edge.

I bet the Niners want Colin to lose the quarterback competition. I think the front office is tired of him and his teammates are tired of him, too. I think the Niners want Gabbert to be the starting quarterback and the face of the franchise. That’s why he’s hogging all those photo opportunities.

And I think the 49ers want Colin to be the third-stringer. As a third-string quarterback, the Niners could de-activate Colin every game and save the weekly $125,000 roster bonuses they’d have to pay him.

I think the Niners want to embarrass Colin. Want to make an example out of him. Want to show the rest of the team what happens to a player who doesn’t go along with the program, a player who demands a trade.

He disappears.

Yes but they have some money they don't have to pay if they sit him (some bonuses written into his contract).

Grant Cohn? Sorry, but I trust his objectivity and journalistic integrity about as much as I trust Hillary of being an honest Politician. He's notorious for writing garbage and smack about the 9ers.

Kap is going to get paid this year, regardless if he's a backup or a starter. But I don't see our newly drafted 6th round rookie taking the backup role from Colin and negating him to a 3rd stringer. Not gonna happen.

Not sure why you wanted to bother seeing it if you were just going to dismiss it but ok. The nice thing is we will find out one way or another in due time.

Here's Kaepernick's contract breakdown from Spotrac.

Ouch. Look at all that dead money. They signed him thinking he would be a top 7 QB in this league. Maybe that will still happen but just as likely that he is on another team next year and SF is hit with a big write-off for a player it no longer even has.

It wasn't anything personal. But sorry: I can't take anything Cohn says seriously about the 9ers. He's made a career on unnecessary drama, unfounded rumors, gossip, trash talk, and garbage articles for click-bait purposes.
