Christian McCaffrey An Unquestioned RB1 Against Seattle

12 months ago

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey will take on the Seahawks in Seattle on Thanksgiving night. In Week 11 versus Tampa Bay, the former Stanford star got back into the end zone just one game after failing to score for the first time in 17 contests. McCaffrey has been easily the most productive running back in fantasy, scoring under 13 points twice all year. He's got a plus matchup on tap, as Seattle's defense has been the seventh-most generous to opposing running backs in standard scoring. It's worth noting that both starting guards, Spencer Burford (knee) and Aaron Banks (toe) are questionable to suit up. Even if both were to miss, McCaffrey isn't likely to be impacted too much as he has been doing damage all year with the 30th (Burford) and 64th (Banks) ranked run blockers according to Pro Football Focus. Start him again as the overall RB1.
