Colin Kaepernick:

What a game for Kaepernick. With all the fuss about “dual threat” quarterbacks and the read-option scheme, Kaepernick showed he has the arm to win games. He was 27 of 39 for 412 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. He made great decisions and wasn’t bothered by the Green Bay defense, a defense which is never a joke unless the Kaepernick-led 49ers are in town. Kaepernick continues to prove that Jim Harbaugh and Trent Baalke know what they were doing when they drafted him with Alex Smith already on board. As long as Kaepernick is around, the 49ers will stay in games, or dominate them.

What did you think of the order? Do you think Luck did better than Wilson? Or that Wilson faced a harder team? Whatever you have to say, say it now! Below, on Twitter, or on Facebook!
