Can't stand an Oregon coach going to that hell hole but at least I don't buy that his system is a fit for the NFL.
It's more the pace he plays at is the problem. College he has a endless roster of 20 year old interchangeable pieces so he can rest players for series to keep it fresh. NFL he's got a small roster of older beat up guys with huge drop offs if he tries to rest players. He has to slow the pace.
I also heard he won't have total roster control.

Still two wins a year for the Rams.

Absolutely. Chip gets the read option threat he needs to make his O work and Kap gets a chance to play to his strengths.
Bad thing is he might have been the best option for the Rams if he was cut.

Agree here...but Kaep is already banged and rehabbing several areas of his body currently. Certainly Kaep has some wear & tear after five seasons with the 9ers and his NCAA yrs as a running QB. Not so sure this will elevate his game for any length in time with Chip. But until Kaep is put to sleep & put under concussion protocols Kaep should look very good. Short term results for Kaep if he stays...he would be better off (long term) departing from the 9ers IMO.

Sweet ! Shouldn't be long now before the 49ers trade away all their best players (y):rolllaugh::sneaky:
Good then the LA Rams may get a one yr contract out of WR Anquan Boldin.

RG3 is going on the market, backup maybe, not only same style player same style of douche.

Yeah I find this hilarious. He might have some early success but the dude is just a prick. He's Mike Martz except all of his players hate him instead of just the QBs. From everything that's been said no one wants to play for him. He's better off in college where he doesn't have to earn respect of grown men with millions of dollars already because he commands no respect.

Expected and interesting. Whiners have some money invested in Kraperhead and he fits "Road Chip's" offense. I don't know but, it could work out. Chip should NOT have total say in personnel. Some of the moves he made in Phila were just crazy. You have to keep talented players. His offense needs the run threat at QB.

I bet krapondick fakes an injury before he tries to run the read option against the Rams. I think everytime he sees the Rams D he just shits himself in fear, hes gotta know if he keeps it he is going to recieve a big hit, and if he doesnt keep it he will still get hit.
