McCaffrey's 25 touches, 117 yards, 2 TDs showcase elite 49ers run-game efficiency (66.7% success rate).

Christian McCaffrey received 25 total touches (16 rushes, 9 targets) for 117 yards from scrimmage and 2 touchdowns against Washington's No. 8 EPA-allowed-per-rush defense. While his 4.0 yards per carry may not stand out on the box score, the 49ers' rushing efficiency was elite: 66.7% success rate, the best by over 16 percentage points league-wide in Week 6. This strong ground-game performance comes at an opportune time with injuries depleting the 49ers' passing game.
