Roman said earlier in the season, that our short passing game, our screen game, and swing passes to the backs are all hurt by Keap's mobility. See, he feels that with so many defenders in the box, and a spy on Kaep, those plays covered, by scheme, and that we can't run them well. I appears as if he has just given up on calling them.
I guess the Seahawks have some how found a way to get it done, I mean Wilson is a mobil QB, and the run screen, and swing pass, and dump it off al the damned time. Harbaugh was known as deep ball passer in his day, a guy who always looked down field, I think it is scheme, and play calling, that is killing Keeps productivity.
Will Keap eventually have to learn to read defenses, yes, but no need to rush it. He might one day be a deep ball, pocket passer, but coming out of college he was a well rounded, running QB.
We need an offensive style that takes advantage of his physical skills, while he still has them, in time he will slow, and have to become more of a pocket guy. Right now, let him play. I would like to see more pistol, more screen, more fly sweep, and motion from our offense. Harbaugh, should either remove himself from the play calling, or remove Roman from play calling.
The time those two spend, pre-snap is what is bogging down the offense, and preventing any tempo on offense. Speed up the play calling, give the kid a chance to make a pre-snap read. Harbaugh is trying to turn Kaepernick into a new something he is not, and may never be. Vick never learned to read a defense, Steve Young eventually did. Give Keapernick the chance to use his legs while he still has them, teach him to make reads, don't force him.
