Does Kap struggle with progressions

How do you explain what's happened, as far as the passing game goes, last ranked in the league coming into this game and just really not ever being able to Russell Wilson Jersey Super Bowl get anything going against the Panthers?

"Well, if you look at the last four quarters of this game, offensively, not getting into a rhythm there, moving the ball, picking up consecutive first downs enough. We didn't play well enough. Came up short there."

There's been a lot of chatter since the game about QB Colin Kaepernick's ability, or inability, to go through his progressions in the passing game. Where is he in that regard as far as his, the evolution of Colin Kaepernick?

"The way we look at it is as a unit. The unit, offensively, we didn't play well enough to win the game. Now, across the board, we think about accountability for that we've got fingerprints on it. I'm not going to go through, dissect, position by position, raking anybody over the coals. Don't think that's the best thing for us. We've got a tough game coming up and we're not going to wallow in it. We're going to move onto New Orleans."

Not Super Bowl Russell Wilson Jersey to rake him over the coals, but is that something that a young quarterback is always working on, always improving upon? That seems to be one of the toughest parts about playing quarterback is that something that naturally a young guy has to continue to get better at.

"I understand. I understand what you're doing, what you're trying to do and glomming onto somebody's opinion, but I think it's whatever they think. The main thing is that we'll look at it and talk about it with our players and see the areas that we can improve. Just dissecting it as a unit, we had too many negative plays in te game, too many negative plays, loss of yardage plays, penalties, sack, turnover, that we've got to get better at. We didn't do a good enough job.

Not to use it as an excuse, but it seemed like when TE Vernon Davis was out against the Colts and when Vernon left yesterday, the offense really stagnated. How vital is he to the offense, particularly with his ability to kind of stretch the field with his speed?

"I think that definitely contributed to, one of the things that contributed to the rhythm of the offense and no I'm not going to use any excuses or is anybody going to alibi. But, we did lose two tight ends in the game, [TE Garrett] Celek before Vernon and that contributed."

How encouraged were you by WR Mario Manningham's season debut almost 11 months after he'd played?

"It was very encouraging being back in the fray, being back in the fire and had some opportunities to contribute and I think it's a positive."

Carolina Panthers LB Luke Kuechly made a nice play on that ball. Was that something that you'd expect TE Vance McDonald to come down with?

"Again, we could go through this really across the unit. Our staff, everybody involved that touches the offense, up and down the line. We've all got plays in there and when it's all said and done you look back and say, 'that was the winning edge.' We could have made plays offensively. We could have eliminated the error, the negative plays and it would've been a better outcome for us. It would've been a winning edge outcome for our team. We didn't get that done and I'll take responsibility for it, but can't wallow in it because we play too good of a team this week. I think any time spent there isn't going to be productive. Outside of the fact, I think it was a good game to learn from and we'll do that."

S Eric Reid suffered his second concussion in two months. What extra precautions does he need to go through maybe to get cleared? Are there extra, is there anything extra in the protocol having two in a season and how's he doing?

"He seemed to be doing good after the game. To answer your question, I don't know the answer to that in terms of extra protocols."

Did he have to go to the hospital or anything like that after the game?

You might just say this is glomming on, but just generally, how do you think Colin has played this season? Last year, he drops right in the middle of the season and the numbers are fantastic. This season has been not the same. Do you think he's been as good as he was last year or is this just what happens to a quarterback sometimes?

"Just talk about this offensively. There's been tremendous play by our quarterback. There's been tremendous play by our line. There's been tremendous play by our backs, tight ends, receivers. That's all taken place. That's occurred. There's been great play http://www.nflseahawksofficialstore.com/3+Russell+Wilson+Jersey+Cheap.html calling. There's been exceptional work and everybody involved with it is working harder than you can imagine to get it to be the kind of winning edge that we need to it to be championship type of football. We didn't get that done this week. We didn't play championship football offensively. That's always what our aim is. That's what we strive for."

The offense ran one screen. It was a pass to WR Kyle Williams in the second quarter on a 3rd and 20 something. Why not call screens more often in this game and in general?

"That's not a bad point. Point well taken."

What were you saying in particular, if anything, on the third downs and that lack of consecutive first downs that you mentioned was a big hole for you guys yesterday?

"What did I say? What would I say?"

What were you saying, looking back on tape that maybe they were doing or maybe you guys weren't doing on third downs to not get those consecutive first downs that you pointed to?

"Well, we were in some third down and long yardage situations due to some negative plays early in the down and we didn't convert also on some short yardage third downs. And we didn't convert on some second downs, second down and ones that resulted in negative plays and then a longer third down play. So, there's quite a bit of circumstance and situation to each and every one of those. Not going to go through them specifically."

Not just talking about yesterday's game, is there a reason Colin is not running as much this year, not using his legs as much? He's had some games where he we've covered it in plenty of press conferences where we talked about how well he's used his legs, how well he's run the ball. And that's back to the earlier point."

If Vernon and Celek can't playSunday, is TE Derek Carrier ready to be elevated from the practice squad?

"We're looking at some options right now and there's some decisions to be made. You wait until you get the medical results back and then have more evidence to make those decisions."
