Niners Nation on Christian McCaffrey

McCaffrey averaging 4.4 YPC; run game success driven by scheme wrinkles and Purdy's legs.

McCaffrey has averaged 4.4 yards per carry through four weeks, contributing to the 49ers' improved run game (4.8 yards per carry average, seventh in the league) despite ranking 24th in yards after contact. The source notes that the 49ers' run game success is being driven by wrinkles with Deebo Samuel and Brock Purdy's ability to extend plays with his legs, with the offensive line ranking fifth in yards before contact per rush (1.93 yards) and the team avoiding negative plays in the run game.
