Lol. Collusion. I get why not Kaepernick. RGKnee comes at a fraction of the cost. This is dumb

Just a couple of facts for you “only real Ravens fan”.........
Ravens actually signed McKinnie to a two year deal in 2013, and when he reverted back to being “Cheeseburger” he was traded to the fins for next to nothing. He sucked bad in Miami and retired that year.
In the 2012 game where Griffin was injured, Haloti barely grazed Griffin. It was kind of a freak play where Bob3’s leg whipped in an awkward manner. At the time that happened(minute and a half left in the game) the Good Guys were up by 7. Captain Kirk came in and led the skins to the win. So sorry, wrong again, Bob3 had zero to do with that loss.

Tank,
I think you remember some of it. But not all of it. This Raven NEVER FORGETS. That's a curse though. It makes one well aware of how badly our decision makers have let us down.
You see, RGKnee had established the game winning drive and outplayed Flacco on stats. (Imagine that). Yeah it was Ngata that made the injury tackle. But RGKnee drove them down and though its true Cousins administered the Coup de Grace, it was only after RGKnee came out later, well after the injury. He did not immediately leave the game. Cousins only threw 1 or 2 passes. He did throw for their TD at the end of the drive and they chumped our coaching staff by stickin to the RGKnee game plan when our Honchos least expected it. Cousins ran for the two pointer. Our Management get chumped way too often. (Well usually, they Chump themselves).
Morris gashed us, Rice played like the stud he was.
Guess that covers it, cept we won it all. But you knew that team was good. McKinnie at LT, Lewis back to read plays, Flacco in the Zone for 4 games. But there were STUDS on that team. Now we have Duds.
STUDS vs DUDS
But I do like the name RGKnee, can't take credit for that one though

That's not exactly what happened. He didn't barely graze him, but he only came out for a couple plays and then RG3 came back in and got them within striking distance before he had to go out of the game again. Cousins ended scoring the TD and 2 Pt conversion to tie it up. Then the punt return in OT put them in fg range.

Lol.....he hit his thigh while Bob was falling. Had he hit him full on Bob may have been killed!
I also seem to remember a controversial call at the end on a fumble recovery by David Reed(dumb ass). All in all it was a poor game for the Good Guys and kept with the theme during that stretch. Regardless they ended up Super Bowl Champions and the skins were not.
Skins were on a tear at that point. Turned out to be a poor game for both teams ams yes the good guys won the Sb

I'm glad the fans don't run this team
1. Kaepernick is in the process of suing the NFL. He's suing the NFL because the teams are supposedly black listing him.. Ironically giving them incentive to actually blacklist him.. Tell me, why would you employ someone who was suing you?
2. Kaepernick was demanding starting money. He'd be a good backup, but nothing more. He's. Not. Worth. The. Starting. QB. Rate. His run was even more flukish than Flacco's and he was shit afterwards. "But he had decent statistics during Chip Kelly". Two responses to that. Garbage time and shitty teams. Good fantasy QB, not a franchise guy. Lebron is fighting for the same causes but you don't hear a peep from him in Cleveland.
3. RGKnee was a much better QB when healthy and is coming for a literal fracture of the knee of the cost. For a team strapped for cash.. Tell me. What would you prefer.
4. Kaepernick is never getting a job again. Sure, the protests have something to do with it.. But it's not the primary reason. That starters salary after willingly asking for a release has killed his market far worse than the knee possibly could. He's a locker room distraction, a liability on the fucking field, and he's demanding a fuckload of money. I could draft a rookie for a fraction of the cost in the third round if I wanted that. He's not "proven". If anything he's far worse than Flacco.
Sorry. There's no reason to complain about the RGIII signing. The contract is dirt cheap by QB standards and it's unlikely to amount to anything anyways. "But he's injury prone". And, we can realease him for literally no penalty.
Besides... If we really want someone else we'll just fail his physical and go get someone else

He is suing because he knows they won't hire him again.
Protests have everything to do with it. How was he not worth at least Glennon money last year?
There is always reason to complain. In this case I'm complaining because of the pointlessness of such a move.

Glennon was horribly overpaid by the Bears. Just because one subpar QB got a big contract doesn't mean Kaep automatically should. And yes, shockingly enough, a guy that's a backup at best demanding high tier starter money isn't going to get many offers.
Oldfaithful
Hall of Famer
Yeah.. And he'll lose. Glennon was a significant overpay and everyone knew it. He just got lucky that the Bears are idiots. Hence, replacing Glennon with cheaper Glennon in the draft(seriously Trubisky is not my favorite). Hell he was overpaid to hell this year. As was Bradford. Stupid teams are going to stupid and sorry. Kaepernick is just worse anyway. That Super Bowl appearance he was good but he never really did anything after that and was completely uninspiring. Despite being in QB friendly Chip Kelly's offense he still platooned with Blaine fucking Gabbert. Honestly, I have no reason to feel sorry for him, when he voided his contract he did this to himself. Even the fucking niners fans I know agree with me. If Kaep were actually worth a damn, he'd be employed right now.
And this signing isn't pointless. Harbaugh's politican like nature is... well rhetoric but RGKnee is a definitive upgrade over Mallet and we're getting him for slightly cheaper. Again... Who the fuck cares? We draft a rookie, cut RGKnee if he underperforms in camp, and nothing gained nothing lost. If he performs well in camp then boom. Really good backup. It's literally a no risk high reward signing.

I believe the 49er's beat us in the Championship if they run the option with Kaepernick. Ngata was out and they could have jammed it in. We were fortunate they went pass happy there.
I've liked Kaepernick on his arm and running ability. Though like Flacco, he doesn't appear to read the field well. Still, he was a much better option than RGKnee.
Though I can't hold the protesting against him, its clear the NFL does. That Texan's owner is sorry sad old man.

I mean to be fair the easiest way to disprove the collusion allegations is for a team to sign him - that’s a pretty good reason to employ him...
