Ontheair chance of returning to the playoffs for a fourth straight year under coach Jim Harbaugh. They re- turn to Seattle on Sunday just 11 months after losing the NFC title game to the eventual Super Bowl cham- pion Seahawks, and just 17 days after a 19-3 defeat by their rival on Thanksgiv- ing night. After consecutive dismal performances, Kaepernick realizes there is no mar- gin for error for the Nin- ers now. "I've lost games before. It's not uncharted terri- tory," he said. "We have a higher standard and ev- eryone else has a higher standard for us. If you lose a few games, it's not a sit- uation you want to be in. We're trying to correct that." Kaepernick acknowl- edged that he and Raid- ers linebacker Sio Moore got into a heated back and forth in the tunnel of the Oakland Coliseum on Sunday at halftime. Moore later called the quarter- back a "chump" on social media. "I'm not too worried about what someone else is saying. I'm out there to compete and that's really all I'm worried about, try- ing to help this team win," Kaepernick said. "I'm not one to back down from a challenge, so exchanged a few words." Harbaugh has supported Kaepernick through ev- ery struggle and every tri- umph, and neither knows what is next for the fran- chise's future considering the speculation Harbaugh won't return for the final season of his $25 million, five-year deal signed in January 2011. "It's huge when you have a coach that's going to sup- port you through thick and thin and I think it's recip- rocal," Kaepernick said. "I support him through ev- erything and he's a great coach. He's done a great job with this team and he's still working as hard as he can to make sure we're ready and prepared to play." Over the past two games, San Francisco has been outscored 43-16 and Kaepernick combined to go 34 of 62 for 295 yards with four interceptions and nine sacks in losses to the Seahawks and lowly Oak- land. He had passer ratings of 36.7 and 54.4. One person who would like to see a few more balls from Kaepernick come his way is tight end Vernon Davis, who has followed a career year with a quiet one. A year after catch- ing 13 touchdown passes to match his career high and 52 receptions for 850 yards, Davis has 25 catches for 236 yards and two TDs. "I don't know what that is. I'm not sure," Da- vis said. "For me, it's all about coming here, show- ing up and doing what I have to do to contribute. As far as not getting the ball, I leave that up to the offensive coordinator. It's his call. It's very hard, yes, oh yeah. I look at myself as a playmaker, not just as someone who's blocking. I enjoy it. I would love to be involved a little bit more. I would love that. That would be amazing. It's out of my control." Davis and the rest of Kaepernick's teammates and coaches appreciate his effort to get things back on track — and fast. "He wants to be great," running back Frank Gore said. "When things aren't going your way, you carry that on your shoulders. I understand it. I've been there before. He'll get bet- ter as he grows as a player knowing that things hap- pen in football games. He'll be fine. ... He's got our re- spect in here." Kaep FROM PAGE 1 Wednesday. "You can help yourself out a lot, especially in zone coverages and all those things. It's been nice to be able to progress and do it in games, not just practice." In a season that started with 10 straight losses and included coach Den- nis Allen's firing, Carr has provided a reason for op- timism with his play at quarterback. He threw two touchdown passes in a turnover-free debut against the New York Jets, almost led a late rally at New England, threw four TD passes in a loss to San Diego and threw a winning TD pass last month against Kansas City. But the performance against the 49ers was by far his best. Carr com- pleted 22 of 28 passes for 254 yards with no turn- overs, posting the highest passer rating (140.2) for an Oakland quarterback since Rich Gannon had a 141.9 against the Giants in 2001. It came a week after the lowpointofhisseasonwhen he threw two interceptions and got pulled for Matt Schaub in the fourth quar- ter of a 52-0 loss at St. Louis thatwasOakland'smostlop- sided loss since 1961. But even in that game, Carr saw improvement in the way he was able to con- trol the defense. "I've seen him grow a lot that way," interim coach Tony Sparano said. "He's done a good job. He can use his vision really well. He's starting to play with the secondary that way with his eyes and has a much more definitive plan on what he's doing with the football before the snap." Those changes helped Carr succeed in cru- cial situations last week when the offensive line gave him plenty of time to throw. Carr completed 9 of 10 passes for 98 yards and three touchdowns on third down. He even han- dled the little pressure he faced well, completing 6 of 7 for 93 yards in those sit- uations, according to Pro Football Focus. For the season, Carr has completed 60.5 percent of his passes for 2,676 yards, 17 touchdowns and 11 inter- ceptions for a 78.3 passer rating. He has also been sacked just 16 times as he has shown the ability to get rid of the ball quickly after watching his older brother David get sacked an NFL record 76 times as a rookie in 2002 with Houston. "He knows how to move in the pocket," Kansas City defensive lineman Don- tari Poe said. "He doesn't play like a rookie at all. He's a real good quarter- back. It really wasn't a se- cret though. We knew that watching film on him." NOTES CB Tarell Brown did not practice after leav- ing Sunday's game briefly with an injured right leg. ... WR Rod Streater, who is still on short-term IR, did not practice because of soreness in his broken foot. ... WR Denarius Moore (knee, ankle) got hurt away from the building and did not practice. ... RT Menelik Watson (ankle, foot) also was sidelined. ... The Raid- ers signed WR Kenny Shaw and TE Evan Wilson to the practice squad. Carr FROM PAGE 1 were not free-agent play- ers," Boras said. "And cer- tainly if you put a perfor- mance like Kershaw into a free-agent market, you're going to get a much, much different calibration of value." Scherzer's negotiations figure to stretch on for weeks or even into next year. But other players were on the move or close to switching teams. In trade talks, the Dodg- ers were trying to acquire shortstop Jimmy Roll- ins from Philadelphia and send All-Star second baseman Dee Gordon and right-hander Dan Haren to Miami. The Phillies started retooling by dealing left- handed reliever Antonio Bastardo to Pittsburgh for minor league lefty Joely Rodriguez. Among free agents, Houston agreed to an $18.5 million, three-year con- tract with Luke Gregerson and a $12.5 million, two- year deal with Pat Neshek, people familiar with the negotiations said, speaking on condition of anonym- ity because the deals with the right-handed relievers were subject to physicals. And the Chicago White Sox finalized a $46 million, four-year contract with closer David Robertson. Lester's deal could open up the marketplace for other free agents and for players who may be avail- able in trades, such as Phil- adelphia's Cole Hamels, Detroit's David Price and Washington's Jordan Zim- mermann. Lester helped the Red Sox win World Series titles in 2007 and '13. Boston made a $70 million, four- year offer during spring training, and after the Red Sox couldn't reach an agreement on a new deal in July, they traded him to Oakland. Boston fell about $20 million short with its offer this week. "I think we would have liked to have had more chance for dialogue prior to the season," Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said. "Why that didn't happen, maybe there's more than one rea- son. I think we can cer- tainly learn from the pro- cess." San Francisco and the Los Angeles Dodgers also had sought the left-hander. "I think it raises the bar on all pitching," New York Mets general man- ager Sandy Alderson said. "Heretofore, there's been a lot of conversation about how valuable offense could be and, of course, we got (Giancarlo) Stanton, we got the big $300 million- plus contract. But right be- hind that, the next-highest is Lester. So I think it re- establishes the notion that pitching is still at a pre- mium and highly desirable and costly." Baseball FROM PAGE 1 JEFF CHIU — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE Free agent pitcher Jon Lester agreed to a $155million, six-year contract with the Chicago Cubs late Tuesday.
