He's way better than the chumps on our roster right now. Maybe nassib can be good. But he hasn't shown anything so far in the NFL. Kaep has. This is what we are saying here. You're not being honest with yourself if you say otherwise...

Look, Kaepernick is better than Henne, Nassib and anyone else currently out there, but hes not THAT much better to be worth the baggage he brings with him. What some here are missing is that Kaep is not better than Bortles. Rather, Kaep IS Bortles. You'd be replacing a guy with the same guy. Kaep has had great days as a starting qb, and he's also had days that made people wonder if Gabbert is better. For this team, Kaep is not the answer.

So why is Kaep still out there? Well, the Cowboy signed Luke McCown over him. Some of you might remember when he was here, and it's truly a joke if you think he's better than Kaep. So why didn't Jones sign Kaep? Well, he said Luke was a better, fit, bla, bla, but when asked about his entire team standing and saluting the flag for the pledge opening day, Jones said the following...

"I got to give a big pat on the back to our entire team, our coaching staff, our entire organization," Jones said Tuesday morning on 105.3 The Fan's Shan and RJ show [KRLD-FM]. "We strongly, strongly support the flag. In every way, we support -- it's almost ridiculous to be saying it -- the people that for generations and generations have given it all up so we can get out here and show off in front of millions of people on television. We respect that so much. That's the real business.

"The forum of the NFL and the forum on television is a very significant thing. I'm for it being used in every way we can to support the great, great contributors in our society and that's people that have supported America, the flag, and there's no reason not to go all out right there. For anybody to use parts of that visibility to do otherwise is really disappointing." - link
