Originally posted by cciowa:I have to admit I never caught the bad footwork till it was mentioned, I saw everything else. Probably because of what I was taught playing defense, no coach ever told you to look at the QB's feet. The bad footwork blows my mind as in all the sports I was instructed in (boxing, golf, bowling, football, a couple karate lessons) one of the first things, if not the first thing is foot positioning and or footwork. To prove a point most coaches will have you do a task with your feet out of position to show you how important footwork is. In boxing you have to work on the footwork to where proper footwork becomes instinct at all times. I taught many a friend how to box, some pick up the footwork like a fish to water others never get it right to the point of looking down from time to time at their feet while hitting the heavy bag and even sparing (not recommended). Too bad the 49ers could not have taken the best of Alex and the best of Kap and made one QB, you could have had a Hall of Famer, not a game manager and a scrub.
Originally posted by BobS: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
Originally posted by cciowa: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.

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

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.

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
Originally posted by zugschef:the front office and your theory has nothing to do with the fact ck has chosen not to work on his trade, other than lifting weights and has regressed. it also has nothing to do with the fact he has not been a good leader with possible, probable internal locker room issues
No matter what's your opinion of Kaepernick, the FO has a proven record of dishonesty and incompentence.
After Kaepernick was benched, the only way to handle the situation would have been to blame Kaepernick's injuries. Not because you think that it's the truth but because you're not a dumbass and don't actively destroy the market for the quarterback you want to get rid of. But instead Jed, Marathe and Baalke had nothing better to do than plant the seed for several reports about how Kaepernick alienated his teammates etc.
Apart from the fact that this is really dickish, it's stupid from an economic point of view. You try to keep the guy's value high, because trading him is better than cutting him. Jed and Co., however, were more interested in purposely and actively ruining his reputation. And that's shabby and stupid. No matter if the rumours they spread are true or not.

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.

and you know you are making a very good analogy that is Hard to argue against, but yet theer are those of the mind-set that will still blame everybody on the team for all of Kap`s problems....sad but true that some people can only see 2012....

Originally posted by BobS:I have always said that with Kap ,its a comprehension problem,His mind does not process the info His eyes are relaying to his brain fast enough......I think that He could really improve this if he would study study study both film and playbook he needs to get out the weight room for 2 months and just lock himself away with no outside distractions ,will h e do this? history has shown that he will not,too much female distractions,too much buying shoes and showing them off,too much being concerned with how he looks in a mirror

clayton was funny the other day when he said he could see RG3 in a niner uniforum. funny john, i sure can not.the amount of leadership we saw from ck last year as compared to gabbert can be fit into a thimble in my opinion
