I'm sad to see Alex go, but we all knew he wasn't coming back. I can't believe they got basically another 1st rounder for him plus another high-ish pick next season barring some kind of injury.
It's a great deal for both sides. The niners save money, give Alex a place where he'll be the unquestioned starter, and gain unbelievable flexibility in the draft this season while getting a jump start on next year.
The chiefs get the perfect Andy Reid QB, someone who is not only more experienced but also better than anyone in this draft. I'm extremely excited to see Alex play in an Andy Reid offense. I'll be watching every single chiefs game next year.
An absolutely perfect sports trade- everyone involved benefits. This draft is going to be really fun.

They threw a fade
The most important play of their season was a pass that works maybe 15% of the time, a pass that they have not successfully completed even one time with Colin Kaepernick at QB. The Oline got blown up, yeah. But they had their best WR running a route that works 15% of the time that they have never completed. I will never get over that.
Forget the unbelievably stupid penalties that both cost them a first down on the first drive of the game and handed Baltimore the (deciding) extra 4 points after they had stopped them on 3rd down. Forget the fumble by James trying to turn a 0 yard gain into a 1 yard gain. Forget the HORRENDOUS interception, a pass that never should have been thrown and had no chance to be completed even if thrown perfectly. Forget the insane luck the Ravens had in the first half on plays like the blind-folded bomb to Boldin. Forget the inexcusable 108 kick yard return when they desperately needed a stop.
Forget all of that. Even with all of that, they had a chance to win the superbowl and THEY THREW A GODDAMN FADE PASS. I really don't know if I will ever forgive them for that, I know I will never forget it. That's the Kyle Williams play of this season. They threw a fade.
The worst thing about this game is I feel like the 49ers are better but couldn't get out of their own way. The penalties and turnovers were not forced, they were the kinds of things crappy teams do. I didn't get it. Maybe it was just the enormity of the stage or something, it was the worst possible time for them to decide to play like it was week 3 in Minnesota.
I give credit to the Ravens, they made plays when they had to, but I feel like the 49ers should have won that game. This offseason is going to really suck.
