Carlos Hyde was clearly the hero on Monday Night Football for the San Francisco 49ers in their 20-3 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. In the 49ers first game of the NFL season — and the NFL‘s last game of 2015’s week one, Hyde showed just why the 49ers organization and general manager Trent Baalke were ready to let Frank Gore say goodbye and put their trust in the young Ohio State product.
Ultimately, the 49ers put a licking on the Minnesota Vikings in a game many, if not most, people expected them to lose.
