Can Kaepernick get the best of Manning in Week 4 and turn the 49ers’ fortunes around? In the past two games, Kaepernick’s been picked off five times, two of which went the other way for scores. St. Louis won the turnover margin 3-0 and held the Cardinals to one touchdown in five red zone trips. He takes full credit for the loss, despite the fact the entire team was never in the game. Kaepernick’s rating was a woeful 36.7. Again, though, a poor catch rate (53.33%, 20th in the group) limits his impact. Marcus Mariota is putting up almost 30 ppg in his first three career starts, and is coming off a bye week when he had time to figure a few things out. He has lost seven of his last nine starts, dating to the Thanksgiving loss.
It has only been four games, but the 49ers will eventually have to make a decision by April as to what to do with Kap’s contract.

He amended that statement and acknowledged that he met with Tomsula on the subject. “Coaches and players, we’re not seeing that”. “If something happens, it happens”. Whether it’s making sure mentally I’m going through the plays. “I’m not going to put anybody in danger”. “But that’s something I’ll correct moving forward”. I think San Francisco had their own worries about Colin so they got him to sign a very team friendly deal so they can get rid of him if they have to.
“Yeah, I can”, Kaepernick said.
“We’ve had a lot of conversations, ” Tomsula said.
Colin Kaepernick has become a giant question mark.

We’ll talk in more detail in this article about all of those quarterbacks, but there have been reports that Tannehill was bickering with practice squad teammates. Not that that is the problem.
