49ers' Blaine Gabbert: Unimpressive after replacing struggling Kaepernick

Gabbert completed four of 10 passes for 35 yards and rushed once for one yard while playing the fourth quarter of Sunday's 26-6 loss to the Bears.

Analysis:

Gabbert replaced a struggling Colin Kaepernick, who managed just four passing yards through three quarters. While he outplayed the speedier alternative in his brief time under center, Gabbert's 5:6 touchdown-to-interception ratio as the starter for the first five weeks suggests he didn't do enough here to reclaim the job.
