All-22: Bounce-back game? Colin Kaepernick continues to struggle against the Giants

Same old Colin Kaepernick? Yes and no. The 49ers quarterback is exhibiting some of the same deficiencies he's always had, but has stopped playing to his strengths.

Entering Week 5’s matchup with the New York Giants, Colin Kaepernick was coming off back-to-back games that were among the worst of his career and desperately needed a bounce-back performance. Offensive coordinator Geep Chryst implemented "major changes," err…, "some adjustments," to the San Francisco 49ers’ floundering offense. Kaepernick talked about spending additional time with his receivers in the meeting room to iron out the kinks in the passing game and get everyone on the same page.
