San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick (7) practices at an NFL football training facility in Santa Clara, Calif., Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2013. Despite all those gaudy statistics and impressive physical skills, Kaepernick faced plenty of questions coming out of Nevada about whether he was the product of a gimicky college offense that would have no chance of working in the pros. The 49ers are scheduled to play the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC championship game Sunday. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu)
