04:39 AM ET 11.20 | As we stated late last night, the San Francisco 49ers have a quarterback controversy brewing and it seems head coach Jim Harbaugh is in absolutely no rush to put out the raging fire of speculation. After San Francisco's thumping of the Chicago Bears on Monday Night, and Colin Kaepernick's amazing performance against one of the best secondaries in the NFL, Harbaugh simply stated he would "start the hot hand" next week against the Saints. Clearly that hot hand is Kaepernick. If Alex Smith is truly as valued as the 49ers say he is, then starting him next week when Kaepernick is clearly the hot hand would be insanely stupid. There doesn't need to be a full-on change at quarterback, but the need to rush Smith back evaporated as Kaepernick obliterated Chicago's stout secondary on Monday.
