Keep him in the pocket. Bring weird blitzes he's never seen before. Get in his face, knock down passes, and force him to make a mistake.

SET THE EDGE! That's the first thing you need to do. They will churn out yards, it's inevitable. The key will be in the Red Zone. We need to be able to keep them to field goals. It's not going to be easy but it's not supposed to be

Pees should watch the Packers divisional game . Their blitzes have caused Kaep to run for 181 yards. We need to be very smart with our blitzes. Hopefully, Pees can figure something out. If we can't stop him, we're toast because the 9ers are going to take away our passing game in the middle. Their linebackers are probably the best. This will be very interesting. 5 more sleeps... :D

Easily.

Setting the edge is obviously important, but keeping him in 3rd and long is crucial. Inevitably, it's all going to come down to us stopping the running game, not necessarily stopping Kaepernick. If he's facing 3rd and 5 all game long, he won't necessarily be able to flee the pocket against a blitz.

I think we should honestly play it somewhat similar to NE. Only blitzing on 3rd and long, and keeping the LBs in the middle of the field to stop the run and create smaller passing windows. Kaepernick doesn't like to throw outside the numbers much, he likes to attack the middle of the field. I think we should crowd that. As average as our secondary has been in coverage, I think we can contain man to man coverage on SFs outside WRs for most of the game. Crabtree is the only guy I see who can create any sort of separation.

5 db set, mix 3 and 4 man rushes, no heavy blitzes, have STRONG gap discipline, spy kaepernick with crushboy pollard, if kaep decides to take off a few times, he'll regret it, and eventually he won't run anymore, ask rg3 and andrew luck what happens when qb's run on us. gap discipline and smart play by our lb's and our safeties in the box will keep frank gore limited to maybe 2-3 yards per carry, but without sound fundamentals in tackling, then he will average MUCH more. our defense can stop kaep, and while dean pees doesnt always look like a genius, he is a very smart coordinator and knows how to stop unique types of offense

[BMORE = BEASTING]

Kaepernick = Garbage

One hit by Ngata will shut a lot of the press up about Kapper.

[BoominRaven]

a ngata to the knee thats all it takes

@Berkely Raven - don't you worry, #20 is definitely going to make Kaep make a mistake, may be late in the game but he will bait him and he will have a pick this game!!!

As far as how you slow Kaep, Ngata up the middle body slam!!!!But seriously, do not over persue to where you are playing undisciplined football, everybody do their job and the defense will take care of their end of the deal!!!

I think Tyrod is the perfect guy to run the scout team. He fast, elusive, and can run the pistol. That might be a key to how we stop him.

[ibleedpurpleandblack]

Oh I forgot - here's how you stop Kaep...............#55, #52, #92, #99, #59, #20, #31, #24, #29, #97, #91, #62, #90....#5, #27, #88, #81, #12, #30, #44, #84...

Basically he stops when he plays the RAVENS!!!!! The biggest thing that wasn't working against Philly or Redskins was Cam's offense. Do what you've been doing these past 3 games and we win, anything less and it will be a long game!!!

What elite QBs has Kapper played against and won?

[balfan23]

"Kaepernick has taken the league by storm ..." Exactly. I like it, and here's why:

Before we took on Manning, he was unstoppable. After we took him out, it was ... oh, he's a choker in the playoffs and can't play in the cold.

Before we took on Brady, their offense was a "machine" and was unstoppable. After we took him out, it was ... oh Brady's gotten soft and the Pats just don't have the fire they once had to win.

Before we take on Kap, it is ... he's different than these guys because they just don't have the tools that Kap has.

So, what will it be when we take him out? My guess is, "he just didn't have the experience needed to win it all."

[Purple&Black]

I think Tyrod is the perfect guy to run the scout team. He fast, elusive, and can run the pistol. That might be a key to how we stop him.

think they picked the right man in Dixon. He has been running scout team. Has the size and speed plus ran nothing but the read option when at Oregon so he knows it very well.

[Joe Flacco is #1]

We stop him the same way we made the pats receivers drop so many just keep hitting him.
