SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Arizona Cardinals

Christian McCaffrey had another nice game last week, running for 145 yards on 16 carries in a convincing victory over the Seahawks. McCaffrey had a touchdown vultured by Jordan Mason, but was otherwise once again the primary cog in the San Francisco rushing attack. He has 17 touchdowns this season and 1,614 yards from scrimmage.

This week, McCaffrey faces an Arizona defense that ranks 30th in aFPA to opposing running backs. Even if it wasn’t a great matchup, McCaffrey should be considered an elite fantasy option and active in all leagues every single week. The fact that he scored four touchdowns the last time he faced this defense is just icing on the cake. Congratulations if you have him on your roster.

SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Christian McCaffrey had another great performance last week against the Eagles. Despite facing a stingy Philadelphia run defense, McCaffrey averaged 5.5 yards on 17 carries. He finished with 133 yards from scrimmage - including three receptions - and his 17th touchdown of the season. He’s playing like an MVP and has found the end zone at least once in all but one game this year.

This week, keep McCaffrey active against a Seattle defense that ranks 28th in aFPA to opposing running backs. He dominated this same defense a couple of weeks ago and is a must-start in every game where he suits up. Consider him an ultra-elite fantasy option once again.

SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Philadelphia Eagles

Another day, another great game for the incomparable Christian McCaffrey. In a lopsided victory over the 49ers, McCaffrey had 19 carries and five receptions for a total of 139 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He now has a staggering 16 touchdowns on the season and he continues to be the primary cog in the powerful San Francisco offense.

This week, McCaffrey has a tough matchup against an Eagles front seven that ranks first in aFPA to opposing running backs. However, McCaffrey’s workload, talent, and ability to supplement his rushing production with work in the passing game make him a must-start in all league formats, regardless of matchup. Don’t even think about sitting him, and be happy you drafted him.

SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Seattle Seahawks

Christian McCaffrey returned to the end zone after a brief one-week absence, finishing a lopsided victory over the Buccaneers with 21 carries and five receptions for a total of 103 yards from scrimmage and a score. McCaffrey now has a ridiculous 14 touchdowns in 10 games and continues to be a cheat code for fantasy managers who were lucky enough to draft him.

This week, McCaffrey faces a Seattle defense that ranks 25th in aFPA to opposing running backs. McCaffrey should be active every week, regardless of matchup, but he’s especially enticing against this Seahawks front seven that has struggled against the run for the last couple of years. He’s once again ranked as an elite fantasy option for this week.

SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

It’s pretty awesome when not scoring a touchdown is what constitutes a shockingly bad day for you. Christian McCaffrey was held out of the end zone last week against the Jaguars for the first time this season. He still had 95 yards rushing and 47 yards on six receptions, turning in another quality fantasy outing. He has at least 14 touches in every game this year, and has eclipsed 20 in six different games. He's A fantasy monster.

This week, McCaffrey has a tough matchup against a Tampa Bay defense that ranks 2nd in aFPA to opposing running backs. Regardless of matchup, however, McCaffrey should be active in all leagues. We have him once again ranked as an elite fantasy option, and he remains the best player in all of fantasy football. Set it and forget it.

SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Jacksonville Jaguars

The 49ers may have dropped three straight, but that has nothing to do with Christian McCaffrey. Before the bye last week, McCaffrey scored two touchdowns and gained 118 yards from scrimmage on 12 carries and six receptions in a loss to the Bengals. The superstar running back now has 13 touchdowns this season, including at least one in every single game! He’s like a cheat code for fantasy managers.

This week, keep McCaffrey active against the Jaguars. Jacksonville ranks seventh in aFPA to opposing running backs, but McCaffrey is such a monster, you can pretty much ignore the matchup. We have him ranked once again as an elite fantasy option and, while healthy, he should never leave your lineup.

SF RB Christian McCaffrey - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Christian McCaffrey is second in all of football to Tyreek Hill in total fantasy points. That’s ridiculous, considering the kind of season Hill is having, and considering he’s above elite fantasy quarterbacks like Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, and Patrick Mahomes. Despite dealing with an oblique injury, McCaffrey still found the end zone twice against the Vikings last week, and he now has a ridiculous 11 touchdowns on the season.

This week, McCaffrey faces a Cincinnati defense that ranks 14th in aFPA to opposing running backs. It’s hard to come up with creative ways to say you should start McCaffrey every week, regardless of matchup, as long as he’s active, but that’s about as clear as I can put it. He’s a fantasy monster and should never leave your lineup.
