There is now game-tape on Kaepernick and teams have had time to stew on it.
His INT rate is gonna go up. *5 defenders dropped potential picks and Moss broke up 3 INTs as well*
The same thing was predicted and happened to Smith in 2012. The 1% rate is rarely repeated.
But overall Smith was certainly better in 2012. The people who were sure he was a pathetic game manager and his style of play would be stamped out were wrong.
Now this season, When you aren't taking over a team with a 2 Win lead in the division in November it is gonna be tougher.
Does he trust his arm too much and attempt ill-advised Cutler-like chucks?
Does he trust his legs too much and attempt Vick-line improve that puts the football and him at risk?
If the 1st happens the 2nd could follow closely compounding the problem.
Team still has the O-Line and Gore. They will be leaned on heavy just like 2011 and 12. So I don't expect the ball to be in the air a lot.
But if the running game slips due to injury or age, it will have to happen.
Only days away from less chat more splat so we can actually find out.
