I know a lot of folks still remember this moment (and do so rather angrily).

If you're one of those, you'll appreciate this story.

Per NFL Network this morning, 49er QB Colin Kaepernick was benched at the urging of his teammates.

Apparently there was an angry outburst from several players recently that occurred after Kaepernick left the locker room (unknown if he said anything to provoke it). During this brouhaha, a bunch of 49er players declared their belief that it was time for their franchise quarterback to take a seat on the bench.

Think the locker room doesn't matter? Think again.

You'll like this too.

According to Mike Triplett of ESPN.com, a stat change by the Elias Sports Bureau took away a pair of records Brees had apparently set during a 52-49 win over the Giants. A fourth-quarter fumble by receiver Willie Snead was corrected to an interception, since there was some question about whether he had control of the pass. That cost Brees a 6-yard completion, meaning he completed 39 passes for 505 yards instead of 40 for 511.

That’s only significant as both were new career highs for Brees. He still tied a league record with seven touchdown passes, so there’s probably a ceiling on how bad he’ll feel.

The Saints are appealing the ruling...

      When a boy becomes a MAN!

      You're correct. He shows flashes. Maybe 1 play every 4 to 5 drives. If you were a coaching staff facing a QB who only passes for a TD on 15% of their drives, completes less than 60% of his passes, and has a redzone TD% of less than 25% while getting to the redzone 30% of their drives, what's your game plan?

      What Exactly Caused Bryces Turnaround?

      By mav1234 · Posted

      The stats were from the last 5 games, which are arguably Stroud's worst in his career vs Bryce's best

      Also, I feel AT's tantrum was one of the final straws in getting Bryce to the bench. A lot of Bryce defenders called for him to be traded and crapped on Canales for bending to the will of the players. I knew then AT was just extremely frustrated because he was getting open and Bryce wouldn't throw the ball downfield even a little bit with time! It seemed even more pronounced because Diontae's pouting and poor route running was rearing its ugly heads as well, but everyone knows AT is a solid teammate/mentor. He is just continuing to prove that and of course his attitude is better because his QB is giving them a chance to win, catch passes, make plays again!
