Wilson vs Kaepernick comparison

[SF 16 8 80]

What's the word on AJ Jenkins?

He's gotta step up this season. Quite an opportunity, I suppose.

I would expect VD's stats to climb back up toward the pre-CK era.

Crabtree tore his Achilles tendon yesterday. Merry Christmas to the Seahawks!

For the record. I was liking your Merry Christmas to the Seahawks bit, not Crabtree getting hurt.

Got it, thanks.

I forgot you guys signed Manningham. I don't see a huge drop off from Moss and Crabtree to Boldin and Manningham.

You're kidding. Moss and Manningham had similar stats last year. So you're saying Boldin will do what Crabtree did last year. Sorry. I don't see that.

 

[bobflipaburger]

Manningham was the 3rd WR and he was hurt... He'll eclipse Moss' production if he's healthy, he just won't be able to block as well as Moss.

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

He and Moss alternated for the number 2 WR. And he played in most games. His season ended against the Seahawks in Week 16.

 

[bobflipaburger]

Moss and Crabtree put up,about 1,600 yards together, right? I don't think it's out of the question they could get 900-1,000 from Boldin and 600-700 from Manningham. I also don't think it's out of the question they could look bad end up at about 1,000 yards combined.

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

I just don't see how you can think production will be the same. You are saying that a Manningham coming off a torn ACL and PCL will be better than a healthy one through most of the season. Doesn't add up to me.

All I know is that Crabtree is a huge loss for the Niners. One thing's for sure, nothing the Niners have will stack up to what all three, Crabtree, Manningham and Boldin would have done. Once Crabtree and CK found some chemistry he was putting up some serious pro bowl numbers the last 5-6 weeks of the season and would have carried over through '13 as well.

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

I just heard from Matt Maiocco that Manningham may not even be available at the beginning of the season.

 

[#ONE]

Based on his 11 games with Kap, Crabtree was on pace for 96 catches 1300yards and 13 TDs. That's like top 5 in the league. So spaghetti Manningham and slow-as molasses Boldin will replace that? Lol@ Lispie logic.

 

[bobflipaburger]

I'm basing more off if Moss only having 400 yards than Manningham/Boldin being good. Plus I didn't say they'd be better, or even match Moss/Crabtree's production. I just don't think losing Crabtree will hurt them as much as we all want it to.

Crabtree had 9 regular season TD catches, 6 of those were from Kaepernick. Kaepernick threw for a total of 10 TDs in the regular season. It was pretty evident to everyone watching, Crabtree was his favorite target. I'm not saying their season is done because of this, but I do think you're down playing how much this is going to impact them.

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

I would say it is likely worth at least one game in the standings.

I agree. The game against the Hawks in SF.

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

If he is back within 6 months, that game could be one of the first he is back for...

 

[#ONE]

Well then, here's to him missing the entire season

 

[szat]

If you could take one weapon away from that offense, it would be Crabtree, even over V. Davis. Manningham and Boldin just done scare me with our 2 big CB's. Crabtree was the complete package.

 

[Cmoney]

He also led one of the best comebacks in NFL history only to have his defense blow the game with 30 seconds left on the clock. The book on Wilson is open and shut. He is a very good, soon to be elite QB in the league. And this is coming from a huge Wilson basher at the start of last season. This thread isn't to debate whether or not Wilson is or will be a good QB. This thread is to confirm that Wilson IS a better QB and person than Kap.

Good to see you came around about young Russell Wilson.. You sure fought me on it last year.. haha
