Kaepernick, 49ers stomp the Redskins
Print Edition
San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick outperformed his Washington counterpart Robert Griffin III as the 49ers broke a two-game losing streak with a 27-6 win on Monday over the Redskins.
Kaepernick completed 15 of 24 passes for 235 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions.
The Redskins bottled up running back Frank Gore (13 carries, 31 yards), essentially daring Kaepernick to throw the ball, and he responded by showing some veteran-like chemistry with wide receiver Anquan Boldin.
Boldin finished with five catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns — a 19-yard effort and a 6-yarder in the third.
Vernon Davis also had a touchdown reception for the 49ers (7-4), who are tied for second with the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West and are three games behind the Seattle Seahawks with five to play.
A loss would’ve put the defending NFC champions in trouble in their quest to return to the playoffs. The Redskins (3-8) sit in last place in the NFC East a year after winning the division.
Kaepernick and Griffin seemed poised to take the quarterback position to a new dimension last season when they wowed the NFL with their mobility when running zone-read and play-action.
But defenses have adjusted, and their stats have tumbled when they’ve been forced to throw in conventional drop-back situations.
Griffin’s fall has been more precipitous. He threw his 11th interception on Monday night, more than twice the number he had all last season.
Against the 49ers, he completed 17 of 27 passes for 127 yards and was sacked four times.
