He didn't really play with Kap. Moss played over him during that time

Once Manningham got hurt there was plenty of opportunity to use him. But that's just not how they ran the offense.

Another problem is Alex Smith was QB for majority of his time here. Those two just don't mesh lol. I honestly thought he played scared though. I was a really big fan of his in college, but dude was scared of contact for a long time

Kap wasn't scared to go deep though.

Kap couldn't hit a deep pass if his life depended on it.

Purdy hit on more deep balls in his first five minutes of his first NFL game than Kap hit over his entire career.

You are on fire today, Spice

Many more deep passes he hit but of course you know that

Kaep and Brock had the same YPA through their first half season (ish) of play with their teams and Kaep had a larger YPC. Also, his YPC in '12 was .6 lower than Brock's for 2023. Kaep didn't have the skill talent around him that Brock enjoys either, especially from a YAC standpoint (which would inflate both of Brock's numbers in this context).

Kaep couldn't read defenses and struggled with accuracy too at times. He definitely hit deep passes though, especially early, and lived in the intermediate areas (similar to Brock).

Ya Kap was hitting plenty of deep passes (not sure what he's talking about) problem was he could make the home run plays and wasn't able to play from the pocket and dissect a defense.

Perhaps, but I don't think they were clamoring to switch things up with Ted Ginn. They averaged like 35 ppg in the playoffs that year. I'd s**t myself if Kyle ever did that

I think our 19 run through the NFC was similar, even if the points didn't match. The 12 Packers, 12 Falcons, 19 Packers, and 19 vikings all had s**t defenses. That 19 NFC title game was just an utter joke of game.

Obviously in 12 our offense was much better than 19 in the SB. Kaep was at least dynamic and could hurt defenses with both his arms and legs. Jimmy was pretty useless.

No luck finding those posts?

Kyle would've probably done that too with RG3 that year if not for his injury. Put up 14 in two drives. No one could defend those qbs that year. Had far more to do with Kap abilities then coaching imo. The amount of times he bailed out awful calls with scrambles.

Kyle is supposed to be a genius with all these weapons, and he keeps laying duds. Idk how you love him so damn much but hate a guy that never even had a losing season

Losing to a vastly inferior Ravens team is definitonally a dud.

Only one of us hates a coach. I just see Harbaugh being a poor xs and os guy who employs poor xs and os guys. If he'd hire an elite playcaller and get out thr way like he does on D he could absolutely win a SB.

I will be surprised if the Chagers win 9 games.

They had Joe playing like our Joe, and a defense that shutdown Manning Brady and Luck in the playoffs. We only lost because of the injuries to the Smiths. I don't hate Kyle, I just expect way more. He's a genius with the most weapons in football. He chokes

They lost because the coaches had the team completely unprepared. That's a blowout if the lights don't go out.

Getting blown out by a 5.5 point underdog is definitonally a choke.
