    Pack them all in a Clown car, fuel it up and send this circus on its way.

    I'm going to mention the 800 lb. gorilla hanging around... Because it was only a pretend QB competition this summer, Vick has very few reps with the first team, who are all new to him....it'll take some time to get timing down... at best, if Rex makes a move on Tuesday, he will have 1 week under his belt. That doesn't bode well for a quick turn around for the team. Maybe get him some reps and stop worrying about Geno's psyche, and it would be an effective change. But without practice time with the first stringers, I don't see this working out as immediately as it should on paper. JMO

    Vick is not starting nor playing significant time this year unless Geno gets hurt. Accept it.

    Guess you missed the post game presser where Rex said they have complete confidence in Geno.

    Put some doubt in your mind.

    Newsflash: Rex isn't benching Geno. He's loyal to a fault. He made the same mistake with Sanchez. His coaching philosophy is to encourage, encourage, and when all else fails, to encourage some more. He pumps his players full of hot air and hopes for the best. Geno isn't going anywhere until the season is long gone.

    We're gonna ride Geno into the ground unless he flat lines somewhere along the way in 2014. Rex just isn't gonna make that kinda change because he's both stubborn and loyal. Admirable qualities in a teammate but not in a HC.

    Rex is incompetent. Nothing but a cheerleader.

    I use to have a lot of faith in Rex ,I never thought I would say this but his time is up.With reports of Hardbaugh possibly out in San Fran we should offer him the most money we can so he can't say no

    good. if vick starts we'll be like 8-8 and rex will somehow keep his job again and we'll pick 18th. lets stick it out with geno and rex, if they fail there is concrete proof that they are not the answer and they will be out with a new head coach and a new qb

    Rex hasn't ruined anything. It's not his fault Geno and the offense have turned the ball over a lot and are way to inconsistent. But Rex needs to be smart enough to turn it over to Vick if it continues.

    I thought Vick should have came out to start the 3rd. See where the game goes and then you can always go back to Geno next week.

    I think Vick should get the start next week but Rex is to loyal to his players IMO. And I do believe it will cost him his job at some point.

    Harbaugh would be awesome. And i'm a Rex supporter, but Harbaugh is a top 5 coach in the NFL in my opinion.

    Then why is he on the outs in SF?

    Think about it.
