Kaep to Crab for the game the least clutch duo ever?

Colin Panik? He should switch names with Joe.

LOL. But, is so true when he makes a potentially game-costing mistake late in the game. The guy just has a meltdown.

I am not saying he cannot be clutch, if he is having a good day, he can probably make all the throws even under crunch time. However, once adversity hits especially in a repeated fashion, I just don't think he has the mental fortitude to climb himself out of the hole and get it done.

But, to answer the question of the thread, I don't know nor can I say Kap and Crab are the least clutch duo, what I do know is this, Kap has a tendency to be immature when it comes to decision-making. Don't just tell me "I would take Crab over anyone" every single time just for the sake of saying it, but rather please filter it through your brain first and analyse whether it is indeed the right decision/play to execute for that particular moment.

Agree. Don't think he quit the route, but should have worked his way back to the ball and sealed off the defender. Secure the 1st down at least, but I get why he trailed off into the EZ to try and score. It was the right read, but tough to execute.

he doesnt stutter step at the top of the route thats a td catch in stride

It has only worked 1 time, against the Falcons in the NFC championship game in our SB run year. And Kap does have some comeback ability, ask the Saints and Pats. But that Kap wasn't there yesterday..

And hasn't been there in a while

Kap's failure to connect w/Crabtree at the end wasn't the reason they lost...it was a game full of mistakes, failure to build on the 1st half lead (AKA killer instinct). Also, too much Kap running the ball, not enough Gore/Hyde. Even Boldin didn't have his usual stellar effort. The whole team just wasn't sharp and it cost 'em. Carrier was one of the few bright spots on offense. Let's hope AD comes back soon...Young was schoolin' Martin all 2nd half. Fangio will have to get more creative to get more pass rush. Lemonier seems to be a step short and they'll need to coach him up or give Lynch more PT. Bad as this was, it's one game and the players and coaches know they let one get away.

Has Kaep hit Crabtree for the game winner at all? Trying really hard to think...

The New England game 2012?

I'm glad you made it a point to share those amazing nicknames more than once in this thread. Such creativity must be displayed every chance we get.

[/sarcasm]

The game was not lost on that play. Crabtree messed up that play though. Kap nailed the throw. Couldn't have asked for a better pass. Crabs studded stepped and turned should have kept striding

KAP can not read the entire field.. on the last drive, instead of dumping the ball on Gore outside the right flat (wide open) for a minimal gain of 12 yards, he instead, went on a long corner route (and yet againnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn), to Stevie Johnson...

KAP is madly inlove of the idea of throwing a winning TD to Crabb.... WTF????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... on the last play, he had Boldin running away from the defender inside the 5 yard line!!

Well it shouldn't have come down to this in the first place. Had Kaep been more accurate and made better decisions, they would have been in victory formation at that point in time. Clearly however, Kaep still does not see the whole field. By the time he gets to an open receiver, they are no longer open. Also the receivers, seems like, they have to reach up for most of his passes.
