Willis on Kaepernick:

From a defender's point of view, how difficult is it to play against a quarterback like QB Colin Kaepernick?

"Put me in a tough one when you ask me about my own teammate. From what we see in practice and from what we see in the game, obviously you see a quarterback run the way that he runs. That's unbelievable. And to see him in practice, you never really see him open up like that in practice. You see them do the offense what they do and whatnot. But, to see him do it in a game, it amazes me. It wows me. And I'm just saying wow, did he just do that. And credit goes to that whole offense to have a guy like [RB] Frank [Gore] who people have to account for. And then Kap's doing what he's doing. And before you know it, hopefully they don't know which one to go for. And both of them are running wild, which they did today."

Can you talk about how impressed it is to see him through his development? So much is talked about with guys like Redskins QB Robert Griffin III and Colts QB Andrew Luck. But, those guys are out and Colin's still in it helping you guys out?

"Yeah, just to see how fast he's picked up on the offense, just to see how fast he's picked up on the game period, it's remarkable. And I know that Kap's a guy who works every day and he's very confident in himself, not conceited by any means. But, if you see what we see every day. I get there and, I'm the type of man I don't like to be outworked, but honestly I get there to the facility and he's outside already warming up. And I think he works out every day. I joke with him all the time. I say you've got to be one of the biggest and strongest quarterbacks I've seen. But, he plays the position like a true quarterback. And that's what it's going to take. And I'm just happy to see him do that. And he's done well for us today. And it doesn't stop here. We've got a big game next week wherever we play. And that's our next focus."

You talk about how fast he picks things up, how fast is he though when you see him on the field?

"He's fast. It's just one thing when you see a guy get behind a guy and they try to run and the guy already has a step on him. But, to see a guy come across the field at an angle and he eats up the angle, to us that's fast. That guy's moving. And like I said, it's great to have him doing what he's doing. And not only is his speed remarkable, just to see how he's throwing the ball. Seeing how he's getting behind other guys, that's amazing, too. My hat goes off to that offense, that side of the ball. Like I said, today when our defense was struggling they kept us in there in that second half. We knew if we came back out and we played to the level that they were playing and even higher, then the game would be ours. And that was the outcome. We won."
