McCaffrey's inside zone carries should thrive against Dallas's league-worst run defense.

McCaffrey is positioned for a strong game against Dallas's weak interior run defense. He has 24 inside zone carries this season averaging 5.04 yards per carry with a 62.5% success rate. The Cowboys allow 8.08 yards per carry on inside zone (36-play sample), with 58.3% success rate allowed and 1.78 yards before contact per carry (second-most in NFL). The 49ers are running inside zone at 19.1% clip, and McCaffrey had two 11-yard inside zone runs last week; the matchup sets up for the Niners to attack Dallas's A and B gaps repeatedly.
