The San Francisco 49ers didn't have to wait long to take the lead over the visiting Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football.
After successfully overturning what would have been a third-down conversion by the Browns on the opening drive of the Week 5 prime-time contest, head coach Kyle Shanahan elected to go with running back Matt Breida on the Niners' opening offensive snap.
Breida wasn't touched on the scamper, which put the Niners up 7-0 to start the game. According to ESPN, Breida hit 22.3 miles per hour on the run, which eclipsed the 22.09 mph number he reached during the 49ers' Week 1 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Yeah, Breida is pretty fast. And San Francisco has a lead on prime time as a result.
