Have faith, 49ers fans. Do not let hope die. Soon enough, you’ll get the quarterback controversy/mindless bickerage you’ve begged for since last November. It’ll just take a regular season game or two. Or three.
Of course, it also might not happen at all. But Friday night kicked the can down the road well into September and maybe into October -– as sensible people all knew it would.
There hasn’t been this desperately begged-for controversy since Colin Kaepernick was demoted. There wasn’t one when he was allegedly being traded. There wasn’t one during OTAs, there isn’t one in training camp, there wasn’t one during Friday’s grindingly dull 21-10 loss to Green Bay, and there certainly isn’t one now.
