Move over Big Ben, there's a new number 7 taking the NFL Playoffs by storm. Wow, what a game! Colin Kaepernick is the real deal. I know I'm a little late getting to King Kaepernick's coronation, but what can I say? I'm a Pittsburgh Armchair Quarterback, and have been a little preoccupied with the trials and tribulations of the Steelers this year. Hats off to the San Francisco 49'ers and their stunningly awesome quarterback.
In honor of King Colin Kaepernick and the 49'ers, get yourself a San Francisco Armchair Quarterback shirt, mug or one of the other great products.
The Kaepernick led San Francisco 49'ers beat the New Orleans Saints 31-21 on the road. Last week, #7 for the 49'ers shocked the legion of San Francisco Armchair Quarterbacks in a lopsided win over a very good Chicago Bears defense on "Monday Night Football". The second year QB was impressive again Sunday, even if the victory against the Saints was really made possible by two defensive touchdowns.
It isn't clear when Alex Smith will be cleared to play, but with games against the St Louis Rams and Miami Dolphins, it is conceivable that Colin Kaepernick can get the "W" in those games too. Yes sir, the Colin Kaepernick led San Francisco 49'ers... Now that phrase doesn't exactly roll of the tongue the way a "The Joe Montana led..." or "The Steve Young led San Francisco 49'ers..." does.
In time, maybe it will.
