As much as I have been frustrated with our red zone play calling and play design, I liked this play. Kap has options to either side. The attention on Boldin, combined with his physicality, spring LMJ completely free. Crab is isolated on the right. I think Kap looks toward Boldin because the d is clearly in Man coverage, and he wants to see if the LB responsible for LMJ gets caught in the wash (see also: manhandled by Boldin). I think this is the initial read, but Boone loses leverage so quickly on the inside that Kap needs to bail out, and escaping right negates the option to throw left.
By the time he spots Crabtree, the space Crab has before reaching the sideline would be eaten up before the ball arrives, giving the db time to catch up and make a play. That ball would need to be thrown at the break for crab to catch it at a dead run (preserving the space his route running created). This still shots are great, but they lead to the assumption that the ball could arrive in the moment that is pictured. Kap needs to flip his hips and chamber the ball to throw it, and the ball still needs time to travel through the air, at a shallow lateral angle (advantage: defense on flat angles). I could certainly be wrong, but I think this was a consideration that caused Kap to hold the ball. Throwing to a WR on the sideline became a much easier throw once Kap was also on the sideline.

I don't think they signed him...unless I missed it.

I think it is ridiculous to demand perfection from a third year QB who really only has a year and some change of experience as a starter. Just like it was ridiculous that so many people assumed Kaep was going to make our garbage WRs better. He is learning and winning games in the process. If he missed his opportunity and still got the touchdown who cares. If Aaron Rodgers does that nobody would question the play. In so sick of the, "We won but," "It was a TD but." Criticizing Baalke after he's gotten us multiple all pros/ probowlers. Even Harbaugh after three consecutive double digit win seasons is greedy and unappreciative. What kind of fans are we?

My thoughts after watching the game is thatKap is gonna be a freakin beast once he gets used to going through his read progressions. He is still learning but man Crabtree got open a few times that Kap forced the ball to Boldin. All Kap is missing is experience under center.

Took snap from under center. Check.
Scanned through progressions. Check.

Kaep is getting better. I have faith in him. Give him another offseason and we bring in another stud WR and watch out! Offense is going to explode.

"That's what I thought. I'm just curious as to why he didn't pull the trigger. It was a pretty big window... "
"Ok I figured it out now. Here is crabs wide open and kaep looking right at him."
"Ya he was looking at him."
"Reign is making a valid point about the TD though. I dont know why Kaep didnt throw it to Crabs right away, he was wide open. That play ended up being harder then it should have."
This is a major problem for CK. He does this often. He will not hit the open man when they are open. He will see them, look elsewhere, and then look back to them eventually. I don't understand what he's doing.
There is only one explanation, Kaep is mentally retarded. He does not like to make easy completions. He wants to wait until the coverage catches up so the chance of success is diminished. That's why there are so many football gurus on this forum telling us that Kaep is keeping the 9ers back.
