Colin Kaepernick: San Francisco 49ers quarterback of the future? | The MMQB with Peter King
Had some interesting coaches film shots of him not seeing open receivers. I don't know whether that's something that most quarterbacks have (there's usually an open receiver), but it cements my opinion that we don't win unless Kaepernick not only plays well but ups his game from the previous two playoff games. I think Gore will have limited success up there, and their defense is quick enough to catch up to Kaep if he tries to run, he will have to make the right read and be able to see when people do get open even if it's not his primary target coming out of the huddle. The article makes it sound like he has a ways to go in that department.
I can't even look at those pictures of the wide open receivers at the end of the Super Bowl that Kaepernick missed without feeling sick.
The SB had enough blame to go around with Roman, Kap, Culliver, Dashon, special teams, Whitner, etc. You can look at anyone's coaching film, even Tom Brady and Manning and see open guys that they miss or a bad decision.
Kap has a ways to go. No ones arguing that, but he's outplaying every young QB out there. Andrew Luck threw I don't know how many picks in the playoffs and Wilson has been off his game the last few weeks. I'll take Kap as our franchise guy over any of the other young guys.
I agree actually, but he's had horrid games in Seattle, and they have the best defense in the league, better than Carolina, especially the secondary. He can't make mistakes up here and he has to make great decisions.
Haters. Thats all I have to say. The guy is one of the top QBs in the league. People keep trying to bring him down. U can show at least 2-3 clips a game by every QB in every game that miss their receivers.

I'd love for him to work with a passing coach this offseason instead of going to a camp with the other athletes.
Me either, I'm a Kaepernick fan, and frankly they don't get that far with Smith (not to rehash anything), but still, Walker looked pretty damn open.

Haven't we been talking about this for at last a couple of months now? Its very clear that often he doesn't even look at a secondary receiver. He plants, looks for the primary and if he's not open, Kaepernick is out of there.
