Good, accurate assessment of the problem with the team. Though I don't believe Harbaugh is leaving because of Kaepernick. I still believe Kap can become a good quarterback. Maybe not great but better than average. I think Harbaugh still believes in Kaepernick also.
Kap is not even average. He's not even that good. Most of his best plays last night came running around. From the pocket he was garbage as usual.
He was 8 of 9 at one point in the game when the play calling resembled calls intended to flow from one to another. Then the calling got stuttery, and Roman receded back to his game of trying to outsmart (Lets run a QB sweep to the sideline, they will neeeeeever think we'd try that, trying to run out the clock and all) the opponent instead of calling a play he was confident in because he knew his offense would execute it perfectly.
Why is it that Kap can execute the game play at some times, but not others? He has shown the capability to put up big numbers in the passing game, but then looks pedestrian at other times.
I have been on the zone a long time and know your bulldog/stubborn mentality toward the negative so I know I am not changing your opinion, but it just doesn't make sense in my mind that a QB can perform sometimes, but is "complete garbage" in the end. If Kap can put up big passing #'s in any game then he has that potential in every game and is possibly salvageable, is my thinking.
hey, its my 2 vernon davis buddies....long time no speak.
I agree with you about Kaep (and SanDiego49er FWIW) The thing about Kaep is he is a QB that seems to need a running game and also needs to run himself to be effective. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. We just need to keep him doing what he does best and quit letting him settle or trying to force him to settle on being a tradional QB. Cause he's not a traditional QB. Atleast not yet (if ever).
He's proven he can be a suberbowl winning QB. At the end of the day, that's all you really want. A guy who can win you one. As good as Brees, Manning, Rodgers are. They only have 1 ring. It's not as easy as people make it sound. All you need is a guy capable of it. And he's that guy. Untraditional as it may be, he's still good enough to win one.
The year we lost the SB. Look at how many points our defense gave up in the playoffs. They weren't the reason we got to the SB or even had a chance to win it. We had to put points up in EVERY one of those games.
Hit the nail on the head. The way Kap played last night, we should have won that game.
He was the culprit of one of the fumbles, and should get blame for that, but the offense out up 28 points at home. That SHOULD be a win.
Unfortunately, the 2014 injury bug caught up with us AGAIN. Just when we needed the defense most we have no Aldon Smith, no Aaron Lynch, and with Ahmad Brooks being out, there is the game.
Honestly, with this many injuries on the defense, we are lucky to have seven wins.
Back to the offense. The gameplan to start the game was very much like the one against seattle, and it was working. The problem, once again, is that San Diego adjusted at halftime and we went back to the old run, run, shotgun offense. It doesn't work, and the fact that we keep going back to it, when the PA was working from the pro-set, is laughable.
