Kaepernick has the golden state of mind

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. 

Kapernick Caps Off QB Change With Another Win

I am a huge San Francisco 49er fan and if you take away the last two years the franchise had been struggling. But the last two years Jim Harbaugh has turned them around and brought back that winning attitude that went hand in hand with the franchise. With that being said he made a tough call going with Colin Kaepernick over Alex Smith. Smith suffered a concussion two weeks ago and that left an opening for Kaepernick to come in and well frankly ball out! He put on a clinic against the Chicago Bears, one of the best defenses in the league. He brings an element to the table Alex Smith couldn't. They both can run and are pretty evasive but the way Kaepernick throws the ball is insane. He gives you the threat for the deep ball. Watching today's game against the saints i felt for Alex Smith he didn't do anything to lose his job, he just got beat out by a better quarterback. Do i think Smith is a good NFL Quarterback? i would say yes. He is a game manager and takes what the defense gives him, and that works great for the 49ers who rely heavily on that stellar lights out defense, but with Kaepernick he gives you more options to utilize those weapons that any NFL team would kill to have. I think there are going to be growing pains with Kaepernick but with what Harbaugh did for Andrew Luck and the resurgent Alex Smith i think the 49ers are going to be just fine. At the end of the day the 9ers are sitting at 8-2-1 with an offense that is becoming dangerous and a defense that is as stingy as a virgin on a first date.  it is a good time to be a San Francisco 49er fan!!
