Coach Harbaugh comes out of this looking like a Genius or a Fool...depending on how Kaepernick performs? That's right, Jim H. has staked his entire reputation and last year's coach of the year award all based on how an unproven second year QB will perform.Talk about pressure...and no, I didn't mean Harbaugh, I meant the amount of pressure "unfairly" placed on the back of Colin Kaepernick. I wish you good luck with this decision Jim, because you are going to need it....Back to the point: Harbaugh...Genius or Fool? My bet is on the latter.As everyone seems to go on saying..."better put on your big boy pants now"... Yes, I know... think it sounds stupid too, but I said it anyway.

Jim Harbaugh got caught up in the moment, now he has no way out. Quarterback controversies are tricky situations that don't need fuel to further ignite them. Harbaugh got so giddy over Colin Kaepernick, he literally handed him the starting quarterback position. However, after losing to St. Louis, he may realize that he may have rushed the very decision he created, and thus put the 49ers Super Bowl chances in danger. When Harbaugh said he likes to go with the hot hand, does that mean a real hot hand or the one he keeps warming up for the media? He’s put himself in a jam now.

The reason you dont put a rookie QB in over a veteran is that sooner or later the rookie is going to make rookie mistakes. DO you hear that Harbough? Put Alex Smith back in and stop acting like a dork.

Kaepernick still an unknown for 49ers
ST. LOUIS Colin Kaepernick stumbled. He also glided in the open field, threw fist pumps and showed flashes of what can be a rich future.
Kaepernick walked from the Edward Jones Dome as the reason for the San Francisco 49ers loss. He also left as someone worthy of coach Jim Harbaughs trust.
Be smart with the ball, said the second-year quarterback, after losing to the St. Louis...

Now if you have listened to my show at all in the last two weeks on the BTR Network (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/letstalknfl), you know exactly where I am about to go. The whole benching Alex Smith this late in the season for basically a rookie is just asinine. Now I am not an Alex Smith fan by any means, but common sense is common sense...

49ers vs. Rams: Thumbs up and thumbs down
Which way does the thumb turn for the 49ers after their 16-13 overtime loss at St. Louis on Sunday, including David Akers missing again in the clutch, a dagger through the heart of the NFC West leaders, a ridiculous pitch with victory at hand, Colin Kaepernick’s keen escapability, Dashon Goldson not thinking on his feet, classic Aldon Smith, Ted Ginn just not the same and much...

49ers WR Mario Manningham's Status Up In The Air After Suffering Shoulder Injury
The 49ers compensated for the losses of receiver Kyle Williams and running back Kendall Hunter with a little more Ted Ginn and Brandon Jacobs.

49ers Coach Jim Harbaugh Says He's Sticking With QB Colin Kaepernick
It appears Jim Harbaugh is staying with Colin Kaepernick despite his uneven performance against the Rams.
The 49ers and Kaepernick, who finished was 21 of 32 for 208 yards, failed to adjust to the Rams in the second half and also failed to stay in bounds at the end of regulation, which allowed the Rams enough time to go down the field for the tying score.
Kaepernick also air...
