Rational discussion is impossible with you, steveishere. I think you have it in for me no matter what I say on any subject.

Did you view the game again? Did you see how many times Kaepernick was flushed out of the pocket or pressured v. Rodgers?

Can you offer anything more than your emotion to the subject?

But, people believe what they want to believe. And, know that I am very, very excited about Christian Ponder's chances to make the HOF. He has Greg Jennings you know!

And on top of that, when he was pressured he had one of the worst completion percentages. Maybe you have a different definition of what pressured means than sites like PFF, but their numbers tell a much different story then what you are offering.

I gladly will. I'm not trying to needle or anything, I just like following the numbers when the topic comes up. Give me a couple minutes and I'll follow up with Rodgers numbers and a couple other numbers that i think were indicative of what we saw from a defensive play calling perspective and how we dealt with Kaepernick in the passing game.

Based on these numbers, add the two sacks (I counted 3, but I guess they called it a tuck and run for a loss), there were 41 drop backs, of which there were 7 pressures and 2 sacks. So, Kaepernick was under pressure 22% of his pass plays, instead of the 0% (all day) many have intimated.

Kaepernick was 2-of-7 on 11 dropbacks with 1 throwaway, 1 drop and 1 sack. Under pressure 24% of dropbacks.


I also enjoy reviewing the games, but I also like to take multiple sources into account as the guys at PFF and other sites are payed to do their job and be as accurate as possible, and there is a large community that is always trying to keep them in check and challenge their assessments. That's why I will be curious throughout the season to see your numbers as well if you are willing to share your breakdowns and I will share mine as well.

In a nutshell, neither Rodgers or Kaepernick played well under pressure this weekend.
