Sometimes a running back platoon means a team lacks a solid option at the position. That would not appear to be the case for the Carolina Panthers.
Both Jonathan Stewart and Christian McCaffrey were a big part of the game plan for the Panthers in their 23-3 win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday evening. Stewart rushed 18 times for 65 yards and added two catches for 17 more yards and a score, leaving him with a solid 14.2 fantasy points on the day in standard leagues.
McCaffrey, meanwhile, rushed 13 times for 47 yards and caught five more passes for 38 yards (on seven targets).
