2026 NFL Week 9

Been busy today, hunting. But checking in and seeing CMC not having a lot of yards so far. Hopefully he can finally bust out a big run,
That's been the difference this year with CMC. He has been running well, but hasn't broken any long runs.
His longest run of the game is 11 yards, and his longest of the season is only 16 yards.
 
yeah and we have apples to apples comparison in this game. They rotate them quite a lot, no real excuse for CMC. He is scoring a lot, but it's incredible that at this stage potential HoF RB on a good team has not broken 100 yards yet in week 9.
 
I guess I don't see it quite the same as some here on CMC.. I didn't get to watch the game as I am on the East Coast and rarely get to see SF.
However, I did follow the game on gamecast and CMC broke the first run for 10-11 yards and was averaging 6-7 YPC at the beginning. Then he ran a 1 yard TD which brought his average down and the had -2 carry. Other than that, he ran really well. Circumstances during the game also had an effect as the Niners INT/Pick 6 of a pass early in the 3rd quarter and then Purdy throwing his own INT negated some of CMC's carries in the third quarter and towards the end SF was up 35-17 and there was no need to use CMC in the game. If you take away those 2 carries, he would've had 66 yards on 16 carries for an average of 4.12. A pretty solid average. He couldn't get into the same rhythm in the 3rd quarter as he did in the first half. IMO, he had a very productive game all things considered.
SF black RB picked up his yardage during garbage time, I believe.
BTW, he went over 8,000 career yards to become just the 4th white RB to eclipse 8,000 yards rushing Behind John Riggins, Jim Taylor and Larry Czonka!

He is struggling to hit daylight, that is for sure. Not quite sure why as his burst seems good. I think he may be pressing. For all his faults, Aiyuk was a great blocker as a receiver and his loss hurts in that regard. I’d imagine it will come at some point, but he needs to put together at least a couple of big games this season. I figure he has 8 more games to make his mark as he will likely be sat the final game of the season if the 49ers have homefield wrapped up. For his legacy he needs to put together a 1k campaign this year.
 
Here’s the spike pick attempt if you didn’t see it. I’ve seen people try it before but this was the closest I remember.
 
Wentz a QB rating of 8, I think he would have to be George Floyd reincarnated to keep a NFL job going forward.

Abysmal is a nice way to put it. How that possible with Wentz? He is talented and a veteran of many games. Hard to believe.
 
Was tough watching Wentz struggle. He looked better earlier this season. Vikings offensive line didn’t help much. I wonder if the Vikings try to get Mac Jones or Herbert today.
