All smiles from San Francisco as the 49ers outlast the Greenbay Packers. The highly anticipated rematch from the divisional playoffs less than a year ago pitted the defending NFC champs and the retooled packer defense. This was going to be the first of many obstacles that will be thrown at Colin Kaepernick who many say is just a running QB. Well 3 touchdowns and 412 yards later Kaep proved he is more than a one trick pony as the 49ers defeated the packers 34-28 in a game that lived up to the hype. Early the pack proved they weren't going to be beat by Kaeps legs, which was fine with him as he shredded the packer secondary for 27 completions (13 to new addition Anquan Boldin) and 3 scores and 412 yards! This kid is an elite QB! He takes what the defense gives him. He's poised beyond his years and it showed with the game on the line and him completing a 15 yard pass to Boldin with 2 minutes left in the game on 4th down. He is only going to get better which is the scary thing and I look forward to seeing what he can do. The best part about this kid is that he keeps his head down and nose in the playbook. Listening to his press conference he is a man of few words when they begin to praise him for his preformance, constantly putting the success on his teammates and coaches. But asked what areas who could improve on he has a lot to say. He knows he has a long way to go and keeps working hard a long with his teammates. More players should take notes on how to work properly. I'm excited!! As he says you have to have that golden state of mind.
