    Tell me how the Falcons can contain Kaepernick

    because I don't see it happening.

    Copy & Paste from an ESPN article:
    The big trouble area for Atlanta’s rush defense has been quarterbacks. The Falcons have allowed 339 yards on 38 rushes this season to quarterbacks (excluding kneel downs). The 8.9 yards per rush allowed on those plays is last in the NFL.

    Make him one dimensional. I'd rather see him try and pass than run.

    zone, dont rush him, if u rush him, he'll just ran past them

    green bay rushed 3 or 4 guys every play, how dumb

    just cover the damn receivers and have a linebacker and safety follow kap through a read defense

    Russel Wilson ran all over them. Kaepernick will do the same.

    they will contain him much better than the packers could. under 100 yards rushing he will move the ball throwing but look for a big game from frank gore delanie walker and my boy lamicheal james

    outside containment, which unfortunately is what ATL's defense lacks. Mike Nolan had a lot more to work with in Miami, I'm hoping he's been working with his outside backers and Defensive ends.....not too familiar with them to speak of em but i trust Nolan.

    ATL plays a Zone defense. The mistakes seen against Kapernick in most man situations (see Green Bay) will be minimized significantly in a zone.

    last 3 games before GB game

    5 yards rushing vs Cardinals
    30 yards rushing vs Seahawks
    28 yards rushings vs Patriots

    The game vs GB was a fluke he will not run like that today

    play him like they have already

    atlanta needs to get rid of the run, perhaps delayed handoffs, just pass down the middle

    49ers aren't all that

    ATL needs to stop the run. Put more men in the box.
