I didn't get the sense that anyone underperformed in the Hawks 9ers game. It was more that so many players so good at so many different things that something had to break.
Colin might have been what broke with the INTs, but it was overperformance by others, some Herculean more than him choking. Those a clearly and without question to two best teams in the NFL, but it had to end for someone. |

Smith did more, with less this year than Kap, despite Kap throwing for over 400 yards in week one. After that, they had to severely scale back the offense because defenses figured him out. Maybe both Alex Smith, and Kap are just average qbs. But, I have seen improvement for 4 straight years with Alex Smith. All I saw was regression this year with Kaepernick. Kap has the legs, and the cannon. What he lacks is the awareness, accuracy, touch, and natural leadership that Alex Smith has. I didn't think this was about Alex though. I thought this was a time I could bag on tattoo boy without having to defend Alex. |
Kaep can't yet play qb consistently from the pocket, very well at all. Add to that he wants 18 mil per year?
Yikes. |

His contract needs renegotiating too. |
18 mil for Kap hamstrings that team, allowing other players to walk. Kap isn't good enough to lose surrounding talent yet

They have Corey Lemonier who I think has the potential, and Ahmad Brooks is still in his prime. They will have a very different defense in two years. No Justin Smith, no Rogers, no Tarrell Brown, no Whitner. Going to be very interesting. |

Don't have much choice, do they? Isn't there a rule now that says the rookie contract can't be changed and/or the player can't hold out. |

If he is demanding that much, I'd draft a new quarterback and let the open competition begin. |

Everyone picked in the first two rounds IIRC can this offseason. |

Ditto for John Elway. Who else did they say that about? Oh yeah, that Peyton Manning guy who is playing the Seahawks next weekend. He went one and done in his first three post season trips. Meanwhile, Kaepernick is 1-1 in the NFC Championship game in his first 2 postseasons, and within 5 yards of winning the super bowl after bringing his team back from a 22 point deficit. He isn't going anywhere. I'm thrilled that he will be the 49ers starting quarterback for 10 years to come. Stay tuned... |
