From the episode

I've talked about my massive concerns about CMC this season. And the 450 touches when you include the playoffs and his age.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

McCaffrey is a must-start on volume, but faces efficiency and workload concerns.

Despite being a must-start, Christian McCaffrey faces significant concerns due to his age, a massive 450-touch workload from last season, and poor underlying efficiency metrics (37th in 10+ yard run rate, 36th in yards after contact). He is expected to rely heavily on volume and receptions to maintain value, especially against a tough Rams defense that now features Aaron Donald and Myles Garrett.
