You posted 2 or 3 more times after I told you I was done.. I ignored them. Today you're still pressing the issue so I'm asking you if you're okay with us just not agreeing..

The other person interjected when I responded to VLF's post. Which is why I responded to him..

Who really cares? The guy wasn’t a good QB when he last played and it’s doubtful that he has improved. Media stunts aren’t interesting.

watching some of the video from yesterday made me remember his funky release. It is similar to Fitzpaticks release where it looks like he is throwing it off his palm. Guess it works for them, but it is ugly.

this Buc's/Saints game.....Saints just running it down the Bucs throats and the quarter flew by because the clock never stopped. There is less than a minute to go in quarter and the Buc's have ran 3 offensive plays the entire quarter/game! Saints have only been able to pick up a couple FG's....so at least the Bucs defense has kept them out of the endzone.

and on the 5th play, Winston throws an interception....but if there was ever an interception that was 100% not the QB's fault, that was it.

It's sad, really. I question the NFL's motives (duh), but he just handed every team in the league a reason not to sign him. Who the heck told him that this would be a good idea? If you haven't seen it, check out the Twitter exchange between SAS and Eric Reid.

this is exactly how I felt....I did not really trust the NFL, but the way he handled it gave every team a reason to not sign him. I have to wonder if he really wants to play. It was reported that Nike wanted to film the workout to get footage for a commercial.

Kap wants a job but he wants to dictate the process, which will pretty much ensure he will never play again in the NFL. That being said I don't think he's hurting for money considering he's getting a paycheck from Nike and has his past NFL income to fall back on.

The NFL is getting difficult to watch with these referee's. They are absolute garbage. Even when they are challenged, and everyone in the booth and the network rules specialist thinks they made a bad call, they refuse to overturn their bad call. I am so tired of hearing about how difficult their job is....they are too old, too slow and often too stupid to perform the job. Them and their union are the absolute worst part of the NFL product.

Al Riveron is a clown. DeAndre Hopkins was blatantly tackled in the end zone before the ball arrived in the first half against the Ravens, they challenged it, and it didn't get reversed. Then just now in San Francisco, Richard Sherman did something similar to Christian Kirk--not as blatant, in my view, but still pretty obvious--and they actually overturned that call when Kingsbury challenged it.

It's like they make it up as they go along.

That was the play that I was referring to above. There was no question that was a penalty.

Arizona is trying to hang on in SF, up 26-23. Just got a tipped ball INT with SF driving with under 5 minutes to go. Regardless of what happens, I'd be pretty encouraged if I were a Cardinals fan. Kingsbury has that team really competing, they've been in most of their games that they lost, and the offense has really moved the ball well this season. The only problem has been stalling in the red zone and kicking FG's, but it looks like the scheme is working and they are moving the ball. Murray also looks much more comfortable with each passing week.

Then just now in San Francisco, Richard Sherman did something similar to Christian Kirk--not as blatant, in my view, but still pretty obvious--and they actually overturned that call when Kingsbury challenged it.

I saw the Hopkins play, but I was so upset with the Buc's I turned off the NFL for the remainder of the day. Dont get me wrong, I am not suggesting the refs cost the Bucs the game, but bad calls put you in a poor position and who knows how that can change an outcome. The play that first angered me was an offensive pass interference call on Mike Evans. Evans is a big strong dude and on a 3rd and a few yards Evans pushed the CB to the side within a yard from the line of scrimmage, caught the pass for the first down near midfield. We challenged, and the guys in the booth and Mike Pereira comes on and points out it was a bad call.....then like almost every time those idiots on the field said the call stands. So we are driving to close the lead to 3 points to having to punt it away down by 10.

It is just not logical to me that the challenges are being overturned less than 10% of the time. These are the calls that the team has reviewed and decided to risk a timeout. I would think that number would at least be between 30-45% because again these are the plays the team has already reviewed in slow motion. The refs are looking for any angle possible to not overturn their call as a CYA.

So the Saints get the ball back and it is 3rd and 2. They run a dive off the Guard and we stand their RB up in the backfield. Not like he made it to the LOS and was driven back....he was hit and immediately stood up about a yard deep in the backfield. The initial spot literally gave the Saints a 1st Down...then another ref comes over and talks to the ref that placed the spot....and they moved it back like a yard. So now it is 4th and less than 1 when it clearly should be 4th and 3. On 4th Down, Brees does the goal line jump up and extend the ball then he fell down in the backfield....and they gave him a 1st Down based on him reaching the ball. It does not work that way....there is no plane you simply have to break because there was no stalled forward progress. He should have been down a yard behind the line where he fell and the Bucs made first contact with him. Again the guys in the booth and Pereira come on and point this out.....doesn't matter, 1st and 10 for the Saints.

I had enough.

Assuming he hasn't blown through that many like many athletes before him....

I think the NFL and Kaep probably deserve one another I almost want to hear about Antonio Brown.

The NFL leaves everyone behind at some point the games go on, players come and go. Colin had his chances and he didn't make the most of them. Oh well..

A lot of people care and the media obviously cares. You might be surprised at the number of people that think he is a good quarterback because he played in a Super Bowl.

And even if he isn’t a “good quarterback,” he has shown that he was better than a lot of the other quarterbacks in the league (mostly backups though).

Kap just doesn't seem to get that it's not just about his ability to play football. I'm sure a lot of teams wanted to talk to him as much as see him throw just to see where his head is at. Between changing the venue hours before, showing up wearing a Kunta Kinte shirt, and then calling out teams for being scared to sign him I think he showed them.

There’s a good chance that the FG distance record gets broken tonight. They said that Butker was consistently hitting them from 70.
