Last week the team signed Mark Sanchez as back-up to Colt McCoy. When McCoy"s season abruptly ended they signed some guy named Johnson who hadn't thrown a pass in the NFL since 2011. Think about that for a moment, then ask yourself if there weren't better choices to make, even if the decision wasn't going to be Kaepernick.
I wonder if the real decision wasn't one to tank the season and begin planning for the future. A future perhaps without either Smith or McCoy behind center and a draft position currently at 16, and likely rising with each loss. OK, I can understand Sanchez sort of, but this latest signing screams an unwillingness to want to win another game this season. Now don't get things twisted, they will deny any hint at tanking, but let's be honest, this team is just one more injury away from having a Colin Kaepernick type player, albeit, one not nearly as skilled or experienced, as its starter. Even if we exclude Kaepernick, weren't there better experienced, more recently active, options available? Despite any denials, I smell a planned tanking! Smart move, but you didn't hear it from me!
