Nobody can conceive of this being a football decision. It's either you sign him or you are racist. Not a fun position to be in. they especially don't want the circus for a back up qb. and as a starter, when used properly like the way harbaugh did he can be effective. but that was a pretty good team and a long time ago. i doubt if he can regain any of that magic with or without the circus.

artemusclyde Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 No way Miami signs him, not with that huge cuban population. You guys are forgetting that Kaepernick wore a Fidel Castro shirt and spouted out crap like how Castro improved the literacy rate in Cuba. No way in hell would that fly in Miami.

NoBowles Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Its a shame that Kaepernick doesn't have a brain to think for himself, and has to let others do his thinking for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL. Of course he is saying that NOW he needs a job. Saying that he will stand for the anthem only proves his lack of commitment and enforces the fact that the only reason why he did it in the first place was because the Niners were going to release him and in taking "a stand" as he did prevented them from doing so. A genius move in the short term but now he is suffering from the fallout of that move. The circus will be reporters around him all the time questioning him about his stance etc and so forth. In the sports media capitol of the country it would indeed be a circus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTL Jet Fan Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Forget Kapernick, what about Tannehill? The Fins didn't want to get him surgery at the end of last year because they were in the playoff hunt/ heading into the playoffs, and they thought he might have a chance to play. He suffered another knee injury, what does that do for his confidence as he has issues in that area already. He usually chokes in the spotlight or when the game is on the line since his college days. It's going to be interesting to see how the front office handles this going down the stretch. His injury had to deflate the teams hopes for this year. Best bet for the Fins is Cutler or just sticking with Matt Moore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkeyeJet Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 People in Miami would be way more up in arms about the Fidel Castro shirt he wore than the anthem stuff. He's not going to Miami.And let's call a spade a spade. If your take on Kaepernick is "he sucks and that's why he doesn't have a job" you really are showing your opinion is skewed by his protest.He is definitely good enough to still be in this league somewhere. A very real argument can be made he's better than a handful of starters in the NFL. His ability has nothing to do with his employment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback’s girlfriend, however, sent the franchise a message — specifically to Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti and former star linebacker Ray Lewis. Nessa Diab, a nationally syndicated radio personality who has dated Kaepernick for about two years, posted to Twitter on Tuesday an image of Lewis embracing Bisciotti over a mirrored shot from a scene in “Django Unchained,” where a house slave, played by Samuel L. Jackson, hugs his racist master, played by Leonardo DiCaprio. The tweet was likely a jab at the Ravens’ drawn-out publicity about whether to add Kaepernick after his national anthem protest last year and subsequent social justice activism. This week, a report surfaced that Bisciotti, who said he was consulting Lewis and fans about the decision, was resistant to the coach John Harbaugh’s and general manager Ozzie Newsome’s interest in signing Kaepernick — which Newsome later refuted in a statement. Lewis also posted a video to Twitter urging Kaepernick to “get back on the football field and let your play speak for itself.” Perhaps that’s Kaepernick’s intention. Nessa, though, has other plans. After tweeting the picture, captioned with a bulls-eye emoji and Lewis’ Twitter handle, she retweeted videos and articles denouncing his plea and supporting Kaepernick’s efforts. ccaplan@baltsun.com twitter.com/CallieCaplan Copyright © 2017, The Baltimore Sun, a Baltimore Sun Media Group publication | Place an Ad This helps his case.

T0mShane Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 So it sounds like Tannehill is going to miss the season and the Dolphins are bringing in Cutler. Cutler is awful and is an awful person, and he's coming to Tannenbaum team full of overpaid dogs, so we should be able to count out the Dolphins for a year.

nycdan Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 You'd have to probably bet $100 to win $10 on that bet. Bets that might be at least interesting. Odds of Patriots going 6-0 in AFCE Odds of Brandon Cooks scoring 10 TDs Odds of Patriots being caught up in a cheating scandal I'd put all 3 of these in the 50-75% range.

Gas2No99 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Sources: Dolphins, Cutler finalizing 1-year deal The Miami Dolphins and former Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler are finalizing a one-year deal, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The one-year deal is worth $10 million, plus incentives, a source told Schefter. The two sides are expected to hammer the deal out shortly. In May, Cutler had retired from the NFL and was hired by Fox Sports as a game analyst. Dolphins coach Adam Gase has played a significant role in convincing Cutler of the reasons he should play for the Dolphins, sources told ESPN's Jeff Darlington. Miami also raised its monetary offer, sources close to the situation said. As of Saturday, Cutler was reluctant about a possible return to football, although he hadn't made any decision with certainty. Aware of his reluctance, but after a day of no direct communication with Cutler, Gase was eventually able to talk to him. The Dolphins targeted Cutler because of the likelihood that starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill will undergo surgery to repair stretched ligaments in his left knee. Cutler, 34, started 15 games in 2015 with Gase as his offensive coordinator, throwing for 3,659 yards with 21 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He completed 64.4 percent of his passes.

In a hyper competitive situation, don't give owners a reason to disregard you. Common Sense Let's be honest, if he played better before the controversy somebody signs him and puts him through image rehab boot camp complete with photo ops and scripted apologies. If Bilal Powell beat his kids with a stick he's out of work. Peterson got another chance If Geno Smith drowned dogs, he's out of work.
