Flacco is decent in the playoffs, but pretty meh overall. 

The Ravens have nothing to lose if they signing a one year deal for Kaepernick (who last time either of them were on the field was better than Flacco), see how the season goes and give Unibrow time to recover. If they don't want to keep Kaepernick long-term, let Flacco come back in the playoffs and make it his team again, or — if they don't make the playoffs — part ways at the end of the season and say they're rebuilding around Flacco.  

Worst case scenario, Kaepernick does outstandingly well and they feel like they have to keep him at the end of the season, which isn't really a bad situation to be in except for Flaco's ridiculous contract.
