That was just a stunning performance by Kaep

[yossarian]

Jesus -- when he threw the pick six I thought it was done. Unbelievable. That's all I got. Can't wait to see next weeks game.

Yeah, after that pick 6, I thought we were in big trouble. Lot of friends I was watching the game with were all "see I told you a young QB is going to blow the game for you and shouldve kept Smith as QB"

Hell of a performance to keep his cool and rebound.

 

[spacedoodoopistol]

He looked like a polished Michael Vick on steroids. F'n amazing.

 

[maniax]

I hope he's not on roids.

 

[tomikcon1971]

I just hope it doesn't come out he's running an illegal Tortoise fighting enterprise......

We need to watch out for the bandwagon, I see some people jumping on. I am a Niners fan first and have been since childhood, so once Harbaugh said Kaep was his guy, I was supportive. When Alex was the QB, I was supportive of him, too. It's just that Alex went to the local college where I grew up and went to my favorite NFL team so I rooted both for the team and him. Niners were there first and so I would stick with them always, even if Kaep had stunk it up today.

Hopefully this is just the beginning. It's great that both of the 49ers QBs outplayed the reigning MVP this year.

What a great game by the offensive line too. They dominated today and did so much to help Kaep have such a great game.

 

[Kinzu]

We know he can have amazing games. At this point though it's all about doing it with consistency. We need the next 2 games to be just like this one to get that 6th Championship.

anytime he's caused a turnover, he's bounced back with a scoring drive. the pick 6 was bad, but i waited for another drive to see how he bounced back. then i knew he would get on track.

my biggest concern roman and he did an excellent job.

This is one of the most amazing stats from that story, no? I mean, a second year player, first time starter having the fortitude to rebound from his mistakes EVERY time. I'm sure at some point the streak will end but bottom line, the kid's confidence doesn't waver and that coupled with his physical talents is why he can be great.

I will point out one play that I loved, Kaps little pass up the sideline to Gore early on that went for 20 yards or so. He has made 4 or 5 of those this year and those are tough passes requiring some serious touch. Beautiful. Those kind of passes are not spectacular but critical.

Reminds me a bit of Montana: one thing that Joe was great at but little recognized was hitting the running back on the little swing pass in full stride going up field. That is the kind of pass if executed well can get you 10 to 20 yards while most qbs will make the rb adjust to the pass and it gets 1 to 2 yards.

If you're talking about the one where he scrambled to the left and floated it past Woodson, that went for 45yds. It set up our first TD and was key to evening out the momentum.

 

[Crimsoncrew]

What an incredible game. It was touch-and-go there for awhile, as the D looked a bit shaky early on and Kap's throws were a bit erratic. But that's the beauty of having him at QB. He can cover for his throwing struggles with superb running, and then, when his passing game gets locked in, can just punish a team downfield. What's perhaps most phenomenal about this is that there's still room for improvement. If he can settle down earlier, our offense may just be unstoppable. Very exciting! And to think, I almost got in a heated argument with the drunk chick at the bar who was calling for Alex after the pick-six.

In a kind of random note, this was the strange sort of game where Kap's QBR was higher than his rating. Impressive.

Hmmm....wonder if this dude's on SportsHoopla?

@JedYork: “@darrenrovell: Props to dude who got Kaepernick shaved into his head before tonight Twitter / BritniTweets: Colin Kapernick is shaved into ... (via @BritniTweets)” pretty cool

 

[Dodub]

That kid has some serious wheels when he gets in the open field, he's a homerun threat everytime he takes off.

 

[TobyTyler]

Did anyone notice that he out ran Charles Woodson on his 56 yard TD run? That was impressive.

Argh, there's always one in every bunch. Seriously though, you hit the nail on the head.

At least someone in that filthy organization has some class and can be respectful and gracious during a loss. Good for Teddy T

Can't wait to see what Skip Bayless has to say about him tomorrow morning. I'll be at work, so I would very much appreciate it if someone would give us a summary of his discussion of Kaep with S.A.Smith on ESPN.
