Those are 6-7 great plays. Awesome to see. It just sucks that he can't make the average plays with any sort of consistency.

Go watch SF @ NE from 2012.

That's was an awsome game. The TD throw to Delanie was his best tho IMO.

Hell yea. Fired that ball in there right on the numbers

lol the pining for Kaep. We will always have 2012-2013 Kaep in our hearts.

Married a hot girl. Ate herself to 300+ lbs. Now she's calling you from the bedroom cause she couldn't get out of bed. You breaking down the film on the beach back when she was hot to soothe the abysmal sadness.

Right next to Alex.

That is a good analogy and you noticed in all those old pictures she was always eating something so the writing was on the wall that she would eventually get fat. Kind of like Kap and his huge list of flaws, they were eventually going to catch up to him.

That's not the whole analogy. Even more sad:

Family intervened. 'She let herself go. So now you have to let her go'.

Tearfully screamed, 'NOOO! She will be hot again. I KNOW IT! She just can't help herself is all...I will keep her, and love her, always. Look how she's so beautiful and ethereal on that beach.'

OK, just having a little fun

Looking at the "Highlights" of Kap in this thread appears to be one of 2 circumstances:

1) 1st read is open and he makes a good/great throw
2) He avoids the pass rush and scrambles making a great play

Are there any where he sits in the pocket and goes through 2-3 reads, then makes a completion? (yeah, I know that most of the time he didn't have enough time to go through reads before the OL gave up massive pressure/sack)

There are a few "very rare" GIFs where he has been shown scanning the whole field "but" it has been when he had a perfectly clean pocket for an amount of time to throw that is rare in the NFL. It is like he needs double the time to process things compared to top QBs. He needs 5 seconds to do
what a Brady or Rodgers does in 2.5.

aside from lifting weights and pulling tires, did the man do anything to improve his game?i think many thought he would transform the position and did not give credit to the defenses in the nfl for adjusting to him. he was either unable or unwilling to adjust to the adjustments

Yeah, cc, i am over it now, but the failure to have any interest in the study aspect of the game just killed us. Had he had even a half hearted interest in study, we can only imagine,
"what if". But the reluctance to do the study, he countered with time spent in the weight room. Obviously made a friend of Joe S there. But had he jsut been able to force himself into that study aspect of the game, he would be our QB now and into the deep future. What a shame.

I guess that was the one aspect of his game taht harbaw kind of finessed...ah, heck, he just flat ignored it....to our everlasting sadness. Why harbaw didn't insist on study still remains a mystery to me. But that's now water under the bridge.

What I think we see out of Kaep is simply Kaep seeing an open WR, throwing to the the open WR. There's no consistent coverage read involved. After the snap, he pick a side, scans the field to visually see who's open. There's no anticipation to wether his guy will get open or not going to get open, because there's no coverage read. So it takes him longer in the pocket to wait and visually see to get rid of the ball instead of anticipating. This is more evident if his 1st option is taken away. He would struggle to scan the field to visually see who else is open, it's time consuming. Instead of having an idea through coverage read and recognition, where to go next. Obviously, if he sees his first option is open then there's no scanning or reading involved, we don't see the hesitation, the holding to the ball too long, or running and abandoning the whole concept side altogether.

So defense recognized the concept after the snap. They take away the usual first read of that concept. Then wait to see how Kaep struggle to find another option. Let the rush do their job on Kaep.

On film break down you will see he can just as easily hit the open guy on some more complex concepts, as laying an egg on the more simple ones. Why is that? Might just coincide with who he sees open at the time, with no coverage read recognition.

I always wonder if it was lack of effort or lack of aptitude. Maybe he did attempt to fix the flaws but he wasn't getting it and just flat gave up. I find it comical when people blame coaching. Anyone can spot Kap's flaws, and you don't have to look that hard. People can't be taught something they don't have the aptitude to learn. Kap doesn't process what he sees fast enough. What amazes me is he was productive longer than most with all his flaws, but the party is definitely over.

Playground QB at it's finest. I guess less people played sandlot QB than I thought, or they would recognize what Kap is.

considering ck was his boy,, jh did a lousy job working with him to help him get better. yes i understand we can not blame the victim jh because of the rift with the front office.. yes i know we can not blame ck because he is another victim of the evil niner front office but doc is right. you wonder what may have been with ck had he been encouraged by his father figure to work on his game and not just rely on his talent. the former coach would have been gone one way or another because that is just what his career is about but ck could have been a different story

no matter who the coach was, no matter who was our running back, no matter what shape the offensive line, was in , ck got worse and that is on him in my opinion. you go back to what warner said about him which does not need to be rehashed. but if true, ck freezes in an actual game and we can not have that
