(Ben Margot/Associated Press)Blaine Gabbert threw two crippling interceptions and overthrew a number of open receivers Thursday night in the 49ers’ 33-21 loss to the Cardinals. [Cardinals capitalize on mistakes in win over 49ers]So Gabbert clearly isn’t working in first-year 49ers Coach Chip Kelly’s offense, which means it’s probably time to see what Colin Kaepernick can do with it. Blaine Gabbert is tied for 2nd worst record (9-31) through a QBs first 40 career starts among those to debut since 1970. Change seems likely, which would delight the fans who were overheard shouting “We want Kap!” late in Thursday’s game. But the main issue for the 49ers right now is that Gabbert clearly isn’t the answer at quarterback, and that a change to Kaepernick might be the only solution.
