It was a rough afternoon for the San Francisco 49ers and the fans. The team blew a 14-point lead and lost 24-17 to the Dallas Cowboys. NaVorro Bowman suffered an injury that is feared to be a torn Achilles. Various other players got banged up. All in all, not a good day.
And so, I thought this would at least allow for some modest amusement. SI.com’s NFL editor, Melissa Jacobs, friend of the site and a 49ers fan, grabbed this great screenshot in the second half of the game. It is an overhead shot of Blaine Gabbert and Colin Kaepernick checking out something on their respective Microsoft Surfaces.
The easy guess is that they are looking at photos of the last drive (video not allowed in regular season). But clearly that would be too easy. Maybe they’re actually playing with an etch-a-sketch. Or maybe they’re playing Fruit Ninja. There are so many possibilities!
And so, a “Caption This” is in order. It can be what Gabbert and Kaepernick might be saying too each other, or what you see in the picture, or what they might be doing on their respective Microsoft Surfaces.
Go to town!
