49ers' Christian McCaffrey is primed for a big game on the ground against the Falcons

Despite being without several of their top weapons throughout the first six weeks of this 2025 season, the San Francisco 49ers have still put forth one of the most potent offensive attacks in the NFL, at least in terms of yardage. While the Niners rank just 24th in scoring at 20.8 points per game, their 373.7 total yards per contest are good for sixth.

The attack, however, has been a bit one-sided.

While San Francisco leads the league in passing yards at 291.5 per game, the running game ranks 30th at only 82.2 yards. And when Christian McCaffrey is healthy, there's really no excuse for that whatsoever.
