Dude. Fix it Kap. Now.

I know you do a lot of pre-snap stuff, and that's cool. But you gotta know when the clock is running out.

Way too many delay of games at this point in your career, and way too many burned time outs. This is something you can fix in practice, and it needs to be fixed before next Sunday. You're going to a really loud, hostile stadium where they want you dead. Watch out for players trying to shank you with hypodermic needles, and make sure the delay of game stuff is taken care of.

That type of thing is to be expected...

It is? I've never seen a QB get so many delay of game penalties in my life. Never. Maybe it's a bad memory on my part, but I can't remember even a bad QB who had these kinds of problems.

...and by the way: what the hell is up with Goodwin getting 2 false start penalties? How does the freeking center start falsely?

How many delays were there? I think it was a combination of Kaep still being young, shaking the rust (week one), the amount of communication from coach to QB (to me it seems to be more than other teams) and also some long gains that take longer to get set down the feild...

I think it is from changing plays all the time. They go into one formation with about 12 seconds to go, then they check into another if Kap sees something in the defense. If the defense changes he changes again. Delay of game or a snap with 1 second to go. Alex Smith did the same thing. Sometimes a team just needs to go with the play that is called. But, it is also what makes them so good against the blitz.

Why is it Kap's fault? Isn't it more Roman's fault?

Good question.

Either way, this needs to be fixed. I know I'm nit-picking, and I'm not complaining about the performance; just pointing out that the Niners may not be able to afford mistakes like that in Seattle.

The plays definitely need to come out faster, I dont know what the problem is, do they go From Roman to Harbs who then decides if that play is a go and then Kaep makes like 30 fkin adjustments, this is going to kill us at the Clink.

I really hope the team is focusing on silent practices/hand signals cause they wont be able to communicate next Sun.

dude is still a 2nd year starter. they need to simplify things for him a bit, cuss he's still learning the position. he's come very far very fast, but harbaugh needs to dumb things down a bit on those pre snap reads.

If this was a new thing, I might chalk it up to week one. But we had these issues in the freaking super bowl last year. It needs to be fixed now, at all levels (coaches and players). Kap needs to be more aware of the clock, though. He's just oblivious to it.

Its the coaches. The same happen with Smith. The staff needs to get their act together.

That has been my biggest gripe with him. Harbs said they were late giving the plays but I don't know. He needs to fix this and show consistency in goal to go and we will have the best QB in the league IMO.

I was noticing that after the guys do their shifts it was maybe 8 seconds on the clock most of the time. Kap doesn't get much time to make adjustments at that point. Also becomes very predictable when to jump the count. The issue has got to be fixed.

Harbaugh says it's the coaches fault but whoever fault it is I agree that it needs to be fixed pronto.

I was hopeful it would be fixed this season considering Kap got a full offseason in but considering Smith had the same problem and now Kap is too it might be on the coaches.

Its not just week one its been a problem the last few years even Alex had problems. Maybe once it gets down to 15 second kap should call his own play

This isn't a new phenomenon for the 9ers by the way. They were 2nd in the league last year. They were 1st in 2011. They were 5th in 2010.
