True. Kaep is better with his legs but Wilson as a passer is a decent amount ahead in passing TDs, yards, accuracy, etc.. plus Wilson has done more with a lot less on offense. Their Ds helped their record
I am conceding that I think Wilson is a better passer for the time being, but I was just taking a look at Wilson and Kaepernicks worst games, and Wilson was bailed out in both the 49ers and texans game where he was having an off day.
In the 49ers game where wilson struggled, the hawks put up 23 points with 3 Lynch tds and a safety, for a 29-3 win.
In the texans game, They got a Lynch td and a defensive td that tied the game, and a penalty and lynch accounted for the OT win.
Kaepernick didnt get any help on his crap days. I am not blaming Kaepernicks losses on others- the 3 losses were undoubtedly right at his feet.
The advantage went wilsons way this year- He had 3 days where his rating was 70 or less where he was pretty bad... but the Hawks won 2 of those 3 days.
Kaepernick had 4 sub 70 games.... and the 9ers went 4-3.
We shall see next year I suppose. Wilson has the edge but I wouldn't be even slightly surprised if Kaepernick improved next year.
Bottom line is they are both pretty damn good for their age and experience level.
