SANTA CLARA–No one can deny that San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick had a bad game last Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Further he has not looked good this year and there are issues and there are issues of the entire offense not just Kaepernick.

Kaepernick is taking the brunt of the criticism, the fact of the matter is the offensive line is still not blocking well enough to protect him. Any quarterback that doesn’t get good protection is not going to throw particularly well. If your like anyone else watching the games the assessment is yeah sure he doesn’t look good but nothing on the offense looks good.

The receivers are not running good routes and are dropping passes that are thrown to them and hit them in the hands, the offensive line isn’t protecting Kaepernick in time to find any open receivers. It’s a complete fail on the entire offense, it’s just not Kaepernick that’s having issues.

48 points for four games is awful there are teams like the Patriots that have offenses that score that many points in a single game. Kaepaernick is the quarterback he’s front and center in all of this discussion but the whole offense looks terrible. It’s one of these things that you can’t blame one part there’s a lot of moving parts in a professional football offense.

If all of them aren’t working or any of them aren’t working then your going to have problems we know what Kaepernick is capable of and he may never be Tom Brady or Peyton Manning or even Andrew Luck. This is a guy who didn’t get his team through multiple playoffs and got them to the Super Bowl once.
