49ers demand an explanation of KaeperINK "offensive language" penalty
I agree, rule needs clarification.
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...nNBC&utm_tags= The 49ers are flabbergasted that Colin Kaepernick was given a 15-yard penalty on Sunday for using inappropriate language, and they’re demanding an explanation. Kaepernick has insisted he didn’t say anything profane or offensive, and 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said he wishes the league would tell him what it thinks Kaepernick said, because Harbaugh didn’t hear Kaepernick say anything and the officials didn’t tell Harbaugh what they heard. “I didn’t overhear that,” Harbaugh said. “[Officials] didn’t come back and tell me.” Side judge Laird Hayes, who threw the flag, stood by it. The NFL doesn’t have a George Carlin-style list of words you can never say on the football field, but the league did make appropriate language on the field a point of emphasis this season, and players were warned that officials would strictly enforce the rule against using inappropriate language, which falls under unsportsmanlike conduct. “He knows what he said,” Hayes said. “It was the right call.” But the player Kaepernick appeared to be jawing with, Bears defensive end Lamarr Houston, said he didn’t hear Kaepernick say anything inappropriate. Hayes was apparently the only one who heard anything. Unfortunately for the 49ers, Hayes was the one with the flag in his pocket. |

Relishing playing the 9ers? Cute.

Hell, I wouldn't even relish Oakland this year, LC.

This league....
It's bad enough that game was a hanky fest, but this rule is just silly.

Certainly he has all the physical tools, but he has to take a cue from Donovan McNabb and re-learn the position the way you have to play it in the NFL. His happy feet, chucker style of play might work now while the team is ridiculously loaded with talent, but it won't be that way forever. |

but... That has only reinforced him to not rely on reading defenses, and forcing passes into tight coverages. Good plan for the short term.. but not in the long. He does make the wow plays at times.. but that generally masks his inability to be a fundamentally sound QB. Hard to say if he will ever improve as needed. So far, I'd say no.

I got beaten up here last week for suggesting that Crabtree and Davis hide his inaccuracy to some extent but I think they do. It's not that he is always inaccurate, it's just that he's inconsistent with accuracy, and when you combine that with making spotty reads you end up with many chances for bad things to happen.

I doubt it. Harbaugh appears to have intelligence.
