Further, I don't want a thread about the team performance to get derailed into another kaep thread. Now, considering the past 2 weeks, it's hard for it not to turn into that.
All that to say, where I'm getting at with him, is that the time for patience and, "give him a chance to learn it" is running out, for me. He's been in the league 5 years and is 27. Are we supposed to wait til he's 30 and starts losing the speed that makes him special to get start putting it together?
I think this is very reasonable, based on analysis. Sure, the oline is making it impossible for Kap to get the long looks that he
seems to need. But you know, having a capable line would just make it
more obvious that he needs a lot of time to process what he sees. I think that's the issue.
You know, I remember a game last year where we were on the 20 or so, he rolls right, and sees a rb in the flat completely wide open. 7 yards away from the goal line. And, it took him over a second to get him the ball. I remember thinking man, this dude just can't make a decision. I wish I had the gif. But that really summed it up for me in a nutshell. Don't know how to beat that. It's not about technical form. Not at all.
