Colin Kaepernick latest QB to thrive under Niners' Jim Harbaugh

NEW ORLEANS -- It is, to be sure, a risk, switching out quarterbacks in mid-season, as Jim Harbaugh has.
That moving on from Alex Smith is even a big deal buys the San Francisco 49ers coach the benefit of the doubt.
This one isn't hard to explain. Smith deserves a ton of credit for resurrecting his career in 2011, and was mostly outstanding this fall. That said, this is the same guy who lost a training camp battle to J.T. O'Sullivan in 2008 and another to Shaun Hill in 2009, and was benched in 2010. And the same guy who, truth be told, did enough to get the Niners to the NFC title game last year, but not enough to deter management from making a run at Peyton Manning (yes, that happened).

Karma bites Harbaugh in the ass.
