Quick Takeaways
Tight end Tyler Kroft and running back Jordan Mason were among the top-ranked offensive players. However, the two combined for only 23 snaps on offense, which isn't a large sample size.
Guard Aaron Banks left the game with what is feared to be an MCL sprain. He will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury. Before leaving the game, Banks was on pace to record his best overall grade since Week 7 (91.6 vs. Chiefs).
Daniel Brunskill, who had previously played just seven career snaps at left guard, played well in relief of Banks, continuing a streak of solid Pro Football Focus grades (Week 15 - 78.6 at Seahawks, Week 16 - 74.7 vs. Commanders).
Coming in sixth among the 49ers' offensive players is running back Christian McCaffrey, who earned his best grade since Week 11 against the Arizona Cardinals (79.9). McCaffrey recorded 19 carries for 121 yards and a touchdown while adding six receptions for 72 yards. He surpassed 1,000 yards rushing for the third time in his career.
McCaffrey's six receptions increased his career total to 439 in 74 games, the most receptions by a running back through his first six seasons in NFL history, surpassing 49ers great Roger Craig (434 in 94 games). McCaffrey now has 1,801 all-purpose yards this season (1,094 rushing + 707 receiving).
For the second consecutive game, tackle Trent Williams has failed to crack the top five when it comes to highest-graded offensive players for the 49ers. He has been listed among the top five in every game he has played this season (Williams did not play Weeks 4-6). Williams' past two overall grades of 66.1 and 70.2 are his lowest of the season.
Like Mason on offense, linebacker Oren Burks is among the highest-graded players on his side of the football but only played five snaps.
Defensive back Jimmie Ward recorded his highest grade of the season and the best mark since last season's Wildcard playoff game against the Dallas Cowboys (also 72.9). Ward did not miss a tackle and allowed just 27 receiving yards in coverage.
After a shaky start following his return from injury, defensive tackle Arik Armstead has turned in impressive performances in the eyes of Pro Football Focus analysts. His three-game streak of 72.2-or-higher grades is his longest since the first four weeks of the 2021 season. In addition, Armstead's run-defense grade of 75.6 is his best since Week 17 last season against the Houston Texans (75.7).
