Christian McCaffrey averaged five yards per carry on the ground. It will be a tough matchup to run the ball, but San Francisco could have the advantage in the trenches on offense... which could mean a lot of volume for Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle.

McCaffrey's 5.0 YPC and Broncos' dead-last run defense set up high-volume game

McCaffrey averaged five yards per carry against the Cardinals and is positioned for a big game against Denver's weak run defense, which ranks dead last at No. 32 in EPA allowed per rush. Kyle Shanahan will exploit the Broncos' struggling linebackers (Alex Singleton and Justin Strnad) with high volume for McCaffrey in both rushing and receiving, as the 49ers have the advantage in the trenches on offense.
