No one is preventing Kaepernick from protesting. He can stand on the side of the road and protest like the rest of us. No football team owes Kaepernick camera time to protest. What a load of shit the entire argument is

Publicly owned teams would be great but good luck taking away the multi billion dollar investments (we call them teams) of the current owners

Acknowledged. Though I think the situation is racially charged enough that a case could be made for discrimination.

But there's no basis that he isn't being hired for HIS ra e

Race

Race may be his cause...but that's different

@HubbCity one hit wonders -- look at super bowl champs. Most of them didn't even make it back the year after they won. Good defenses don't sustain excellence.

@NSwanson I would actually love to see what happened if more were publically owned

Yeah, well there's very few teams that make it two years in a row, let alone winning it. Your logic means that all these great QBs, like a Phillip Rivers who never made a super bowl suck

Bears 85 ravens 00 best 2 defense to ever do didnt go back good point

Playoffs, year after year, is sustained success

Ravens and Seahawks both have had lots of that last couple decades

They have all been successful, but don't enjoy the enduring and consistent success of teams with good offenses.

As a chiefs fan whoes team has 7 years in a row and won 10 plus each year. I disagree we are a complete failure

Lmao

Now that is sour

Teams with the best offenses (Steelers, Packers, Patriots, etc.) have more consistent success.

Point being that even with a different QB, 49ers strong defense would be unlikely to carry them to four rings.

For sure

This aint the NBA

NFL rings are uber rare and brady has 6 what a fkn boss

But the Patriots who usually have mediocre defenses keep rolling, Chiefs defense is mediocre, Saints, etc.

The best teams recently don't need to have high end defenses.
