Over-rated imo.



Nah, not even close.


A 2nd year QB. He is doing excellent. He has not been blown out in any game this year. Ive seen a lot of NFL. You do realise it takes a QB about 3 full seasons in the NFL before they can read the game well. And most dont peak untill close too 28-30.
Look at brady without Gronk and Amendola. Looks ordinary. The eagls beat them.
Sometimes a QB will look better in a good team and system. Carr doesnt force the pass and makes good reads.And will improve a whole heap in 2 more years.Franchise him and build your team around him.....



Td's - 30 - Ranked 6th

I've been watching my beloved Raiders since 1995. So f**k off with this attitude.

I've also been watching Carr since his days at Fresno.

I don't think he will get any better. He's average.

A while back, people were excited about Kaepernick, too...

So 49ers sign a RB from the Ravens practise squad. OK Hayne fumbled a few times and can't read blocks, 49ers are crap anyway, surely for the sake of the fans they could give him a run.

If Hayne by chance did have a decent game, it would make the coaches look stupid.

Wouldn't the coaches just say the time Hayne spent on the PS is the reason he played so well?

While Hayne may greatly interest fans in Aus, he is a 4th order issue in the US. Sure, the AUs press will selectively drag up whatever comments from 9ers fans they can, but they also ignore comments from fans who are realists. If the 9ers don't think he's up to being an NFL running back yet, it's not surprising that they don't want to play him (yet). He hasn't shown that he can protect the QB yet, and as a 3rd down back that is crucial.

Just go onto the 49ers Facebook page where they announced the signing of this new RB, majority want Hayne. That's not the Aussie media, it's the 49er fans.

Kapernaick looked good in a great team.
Carr looks good in an average team.And did well last year in a horrid team.

Your welcome to your opinion - Id have him at Phili in a heartbeat thou. People where questioning Cam newtown prior to start of this year as well.

Im not alone in my thoughts thou -

I understand you have been watching for a long time. Longer then me but i have an extremely HIGH IQ. I can pick things up twice as fast as a lot of people and three times quicker then your average Joe. I worked out a rubik's cube in just under 2 mins as a 4 yld .
I am not saying your an average Joe but just that my opinion is a higher chance of being correct then yours that's all.

Do you reckon that fans who think otherwise will bother posting to say 'fair enough decision'? Until Hayne can (at least) protect the QB, they ain't going to play him (unless they can't cover PR position as well). The coaches reckon he is not ready. That is no criticism of Hayne, it just seems to be a realistic appraisal of the situation. What would they learn by playing him? That he can do some good things (maybe) and some bad things in a bad, beaten team?

The QB was sacked 9 times in one game last week. I'd suggest the current players aren't too crash hot at protecting the QB themselves.

So how does he get a chance to protect the QB unless he plays?

We are an inconsistent team, but by no means average - Amari Cooper and Khalil Mack are walk-up starts to other franchises imo.

Our O-line is pretty decent, too.

Carr has a big arm, but I've never been sold on him.

But we have put up with shit for so long, Carr looks great in comparison.

Setting aside this completely misguided notion that a high IQ equates to high intelligence for one moment, you're making an assumption on the level of my IQ, as well as suggesting that because of said astronomically high IQ, you're in a better position to judge talent than a man who watches his team religiously, and has done so for 20 years.

I'll leave you to decipher the farcical nature of that logic.

People are often wrong - it's only human nature. And I am more than happy to concede that you might be right, and he may turn out to be a star.

I, myself, have seen no star quality about him over several years.

Other fans rated Hostetler, too - his career TD to INT ratio was 94 to 71...hardly stellar.

Unless he picks up another NFL team in the off season or whenever the draft is on can you really see him at the 49ers next year? Seriously what the f**k is he still doing there?

Come home FFS, before the bulb goes out on the porch light!!

What is he doing there?
He's learning the game that he wants to play. I'm pretty sure Hayne knew he'd be starting at the bottom when he decided to head over there.

As much as I'd love to see him out there on the field for the Niners, it is probably in the team's (and his) best interests to have him on the PS.

I think you're right mate.

And risk him having some good games then losing him in free agency.

Honestly the lack of knowledge in this thread is hilarious. The 49ers can't promote him, or they risk losing him.

I suggest some people who are saying they are idiots look at how the whole practice squad, waivers system works in the NFL. Hayne is no chance of getting promoted this season (maybe the last game, but for what purpose?), what they have done is very deliberate and they intend on signing him to a futures contract (or practice squad) for next season.

If Hayne were to be made 'active' this week, he would be ineligible under NFL rules to ever be in the practice squad again (too many weeks in the squad and potentially too many weeks active on game day). What does that mean? He hits free agency, can sign a futures contract but cannot train with the squad. It also gives other teams a peak into his development and gives them the option to sign him.

So the 49ers have a lot to lose by promoting him, and nothing to gain.

He wasn't even good in the games he played anyway. He has a long way to go before he's a bona fide NFL player, and being active on gameday isn't necessarily the best path to get there.
