49ers' Kaepernick shoulders blame: 'I have to be better'

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s second start of the season played out in similar fashion to his first appearance of the season a week ago in Buffalo. Again, Kaepernick had more success running, and the 49ers’ last-ranked pass offense came in under its season average. “I have to be better,” Kaepernick said following the 49ers’ 34-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before a sparse and largely disinterested gathering at Levi's Stadium.
