He will stand there with a clean 10 yards in front of him and bounce until the gap is closed and normally ends up with a sack or 2 yard gain.
He runs when he has someone open but hesitates to run when no one is open and has a clear a run way. I sit there and spend most of my time screaming at the TV for him to make a decision.
He is also terrible in the red zone. I know the moment he gets inside the 10 yard line it will be a FG.

That bullshit about Kap's arm and deep accuracy is about as weak an attempt at spreading bullshit nonsense as I can remember.
Arm strength
When did Alex throw a football 60 mph at the combine? Kaepernick did.
Deep Passing Accuracy
Kaepernick was the 2nd most accurate deep passer in the NFL last year, behind Russell Wilson.
Deep Passing Frequency
Kaepernick was the 3rd most frequent deep passer in the NFL. Not3 Alex's rank of 31st.

Alex vs. Kaepernick. Kaepernic, and it isn't even close. Kaepernick's floor is Alex's ceiling.
