Colin Kaepernick will start this weekend for the San Francisco 49ers. While it’s a difficult decision to bench Alex Smith, I think this is the right call by Niners coach Jim Harbaugh.

Smith is a good QB. He has a QB rating that is one of the best in the entire NFL. However, Kaepernick has “it”. He’s a dynamic quarterback with an extremely high ceiling.

Right now, San Francisco is a really good team. Are they are Super Bowl contender? Probably not with Smith because he’s not explosive enough. But with Kaepernick? He has the upside to push the Niners over the top.

That alone makes Harbaugh’s decision the right one.
