McCaffrey looked very fresh with the running back split... The duo combined for 133 yards on 24 carries... The 49ers ran the ball 30 times for 174 yards on a very respectable 5.8 yards per carry. And they did so against one of the NFL's best defensive lines.

McCaffrey looked fresh and efficient in Week 1 run game revival against elite defense.

McCaffrey looked very fresh with the running back split in Week 1 against the Rams; the 49ers' run game, which was inefficient with McCaffrey last year, flourished with him and Kaelon Black combining for 133 yards on 24 carries (5.5 yards per carry average) as part of a 30-carry, 174-yard team rushing performance at 5.8 yards per carry against one of the NFL's best defensive lines. McCaffrey's explosive performance and fresh appearance suggest improved efficiency and role clarity in the backfield.
