Not saying Kaepernick is a better QB than Andrew Luck, but what I would say is even great QB can have a bad series of games. Also Luck had no new headcoach nor offensive coordinator, correct me if I an wrong. Kaep has an unproven Geep Chryst at offensive coordinator. It is too early to bench Kaep. Give him some time to turn things around.
This is true.
And I think Luck's performance to start the year is actually much worse. He has Hilton (sometimes), Fleener, Moncrief, Dorestt and Andre Johnson.
Luck's problem is he throws so many damn interceptions, and its funny the media never get on him for it. I mean he is at 50 interceptions in 51 games (Kap is at 25 interceptions in 51 games).
Kap had a freaking awful game and I've been just about as negative as anyone, but I don't think Kap is the problem. Fix the line, get a better coaching staff, make better GM moves at WR and we'd see some growth.
I also think Harbs was on the right track trying to get Kap to be more of a drop-back passer, even if it means growing pains at first....
