on the field blaine gabbert is the starting quarterback for now over colin kaepernick and the question is for how long, mr. shumann. >> i think he'll be the quarterback until further notice. he's won the job and kaepernick wasn't at full strength with all the surgeries so he's rebuilding his strength, his size. he lost like 20 pounds so chip kell he to make a choice, and i think he knew all along it would be blaine back ge-- blaine gabbert. wanted to see what kaepernick had because he took the team to three title games and a super bowl. i think gabbert will be the guy until further notice. >> there's been some speculation that we might perhaps see kap tonight, a specia package of plays. >> right. >> to take advantage of his strength which is the read option. do you think we'll see kap or is that the next step to a prolonged quarterback controversy? >> it could be a little bit of both, that's a good point, but if you want to get kap some reps, that's what you do, have a specified package for him. get him some turns and reps in an actual game to get him comfortable in case he does have t

blaine gabbert is the starter.rnick feels this is a similar kind of system that he ran at nevada when he was a duel threat. 49ers traded up and got him in 2011 so he hasn't got his strength back. he feels like he still has a lot of improving to do, but he feels like if he's given that opportunity he can step in and win football games. the last time he started the season on the bench was 2012 and he ended up being the starting quarterback in the super bowl that season. >> i know blaine gabbert gets the start but i've got a sneaking suspicion i might see number 7 at some point. how likely is it, and you're an insider on this, how likely is it that we see two quarterbacks on monday night against the l.a. rams, a special package for colin kaepernick because he has special gifts chip kelly can harness? >> i don't think you'll see this week. i don't think his running ability and his strength is everything, you know, not back to where it was before all the surgery, so i don't think that that's going to be the case, and i

a lot of information to give you today. >>> well, first of all, blaine gabbert is the 49ers starting quarterback. that's a fact according to coach chip kelly. at least for week one. that will be a week from monday against the rams. colin kaepernick is the backup. gabbert started the first three preseason games and started the remaining eight games of last season. that team's record over that time was 3-5. chip kelly today. >> you know, i think his grasp and command of what we're doing he is a fit of what we want to get accomplished. and have a lot of confidence in what he can do with us offensively. i think kap is not up to his playing weight. he missed a couple of weeks with the arm. that set him back. the timetable was the timetable. and right now we feel that blaine is the starter. >> rod streater my man number 80 with the raiders! best receiver never to get into a game is now a 49er. 9ers traded with the chiefs to get him today and in a funny way he could be the 9ers second best wideout right now. streater has signed with kansas city in the spring after four seasons in oakland. he

let's talk about the starter, blaine gabbert. >> he does need to.rove the haters wrong. check down, check down, he has to come out there, be confident, he has to look for his receivers. he can't throw to vance mcdonald. he needs to be accurate, use his legs when he can. it's a big night for gabbert. >> does kaepernick kneeling, what are your thoughts on the silent protest. >> i don't think it plays a role on the field. in terms of the silent protest, i'm supportive of kaepernick. he's doing something peaceful to start a conversation and he's done it. he started a national conversation on issues that need to be addressed. i don't think it's a distraction on the field. >> how bad does blaine gabbert have to be before they decide to go to kaepernick. >> only chip kelly knows the answer to that. he would have to be pretty bad, i think, in order for them to make the switch early on. you don't want to abandon your starter after week one unless it's a train wreck. the other side, case keenum is not exactly tom brady, and the 49ers have a chance to win the

blaine gabbert i]ñrand the 49er offense continued to sputter.

for three games blaine gabbert is ranked 30 out of 32. his back up kaepernick was once described as having the potential to be the best that ever played the game, so why not make a change. >> we need to run the ball better. that's not blaine's fault. the quarterback's job on power is to hand the ball off. i think he's done a good job protecting the football. we threw an interception yesterday it went through the receiver's hands. you have to look how that happened and how that went. >> the quarterback may not be entirely to blame but the ineffective ns of the 49 er offense in seattle can't be denied. one that stands out third down conversion. the 49ers did not convert once in the first half. >> what we do on third down is we have a breakdown of the tendencies that they have the pressures that we run. and at the end of the day when we go out there, we have to execute wlshgs it's third and one or third and 15. >> the coach and the quarterback have been here before. they are all under a microscope and know nothing changes the dialogue better

it won't be tonight, but i can hear the crowd here that blaine gabbert throws a couple of interceptions, then the crowd would turn calling -- calling for kaepernick. he was the last quarterback to lead them to a super bowl. you better believe that he'll be ready to go if he gets called upon by chip kelly. that's the story out here. the other story is that jared goff -- jared goff will not be in uniform. he's not active for this game. high hopes for goff. people expect him to have a long career as the number one draft pick. but a humbling experience for him to return to the bay area and not be able to suit up for the game against, you know, the team he grew up rooting for. a joe montana fan. you know, jared goff will be supporting case keenum. we'll see if the head coach decides to activate goff and put anymore. those are two of the stories. of course we are very aware of the rams, but the l.a. rams as you said it's been 21 years since they came to town as the l.a. rams. >> you know that rivalry the giants and the dodgers as one of the most intense rivalries in all of sports. back in the

kaepernick, however is entrenched as the number 2 guy behind blaine gabbert. >> right now he is our second quarterback and blaine is our first quarterback. that's what i'm saying. he has a chance every single day. everybody has a chance every single day. but if you ask me where he is, he's not where he was in 2013. that's what i am pointing out. he is not 100% back from a recovery standpoint. he is 100% healed from those injuries so that allows him to play in the game. but he is not the same player he was when he was running the ball all over the place. he is not the same guy right now. >> meantime, chip kelly, this is something you might want to consider after seeing what he has so far. vegas, you can bet on anything there. less miles one of the big foot baum programs, he was the coach. he was just fired and vegas says chip kelly is 15-1 favorite to be the next coach at lsu. lane kilfen is th1 favorite to be the next coach at lsu. the raiders fresh off of victory and they are out on the road again facing baltimore. ravens, i don't know what it is, but year in, year out, they always seem t

if blaine gabbert is ineffective, might we see the return of colin kaepernick? >> everybody has a chance every day. he is not where he was in 2013 and that's what i am pointing out. he is not 100% back from a recovery standpoint. he is 100% healed, but is he the same player he was running a 4.5 and throwing the ball all over. you can look at him and he is not the same guy. >> the niners may not have to deal with dez bryant. he has a hair line fracture in his knee. he could be out three weeks, or he may not be able to play. abc7 sports is brought to you by riverwalk casino. as we ride the rollercoaster with the giants, we're up, we're down. we're u
