From the episode

he only played one snap in the fourth... Still over 20 expected fantasy points through three quarters... it's fair to dock him a little relative to some of these other amazing plays.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

McCaffrey's blowout risk (one snap in Q4) docks him vs. other elite RB plays.

Scored short-yardage touchdown at end of third quarter but played only one snap in fourth quarter last week despite amazing usage through three quarters. Still posted over 20 expected fantasy points through three quarters and can absolutely nuke even if game isn't close. Fair to dock him slightly relative to other amazing plays given blowout risk, but remains strong option within 49ers stack or with Trey McBride as bring-back if game stays closer.
