Such a sad time in Niner history.

Not really, Alex wouldn't have done the things that Kaep did to teams like GB and ATL to get us to the SB.

Possibly, but I think the way the playcalls changed, and they started doing that crappy read option... I think we wouldn't have fallen behind Bmore in the Superbowl like that, if we were feeding gore, and playing differently. Just my opinion though.

No way Smith could comeback like that, and that still stands today

Well I can dream...
But that season Alex was my QB, don't like how they put Kaep in. I wonder if Kaep could have benefited from a longer time on the bench? Or was he doomed to begin with..

i think the fame got to Kaep. After he got a big head..he thought he can just show up and not put in the extra effort (from my POV)

That NFCCG against the Giants sucked, but it exposed our entire offense not just smith. As far as Kaep, not even sure what happened. He did try to work with Warner, and it improved a few things while ruining others. Perhaps if sat longer on the bench instead of coming in and running a 70% RO offfense he could have developed better. Who knows with him, he was pretty stubborn late though.

That Warner thing was just too late. he should have done that a lot sooner

Maybe my memory is off, It just seemed like we were doing RO to death back then even when it wasn't working. Well true about the warner thing, but didn't he also only do it for like 6 weeks? That wasn't enough work to get it down long term IMO.
