I'm sure Tom Brady running the pistol would've had the same result.
I hate how some fans ignored that we had arguably the worst offensive line in 49er history in Kaeps final years and acted like it was all on Kaep. Also who was his best target? Quinton Patten. Just a joke of an offensive around him to judge how he would have done.
I don't agree with all of his off the field stuff but it's annoying to me how people said he was trash. So was the whole offense!
I've said it several times. My friend pointed out early in 2012, that Kaep didn't read the defense before the snap. I shrugged it off thinking he would grow into that. Fast forward to 2014 the year before the off the field stuff. We are playing the Rams and they don't have a DB on Torrey Smith. He was doing jumping jacks trying to get Kaeps attention. What does Kaep do? Run the ball up the gut for a yard or 2, could have been a 95 yard Td. That was the moment I gave up on him. That had nothing to do with the OL, receivers, or the injured defense. That was a QB too lazy to do his job and look over the defensive alignment. And that's not even going into his inability to read the defense after the ball is snapped.
