He breaks through on runs and gashes. He drives DCs to distraction. As long as he's on the field, the offense is unpredictable and dangerous. Everybody is better with him out there. He doesn't need to average six yards per carry to do that. If he's sitting on the bench and a stiff is out there making five yards per carry, the offense is diminished. If he goes down, we're done. If he's on the bench, the team lacks potency and will be done.

So what are you going to do? You play him and keep winning as long as you can.

Unstoppable, sure.
unpredictable, no way.

Teams know we're going to check it down to CMC and they just can't stop it.

Teams can't assume they're going to check it down. CMC with BP's eyes down field to Kittle, Pearsall, Jennings, and Bourne, with BP's ability to scramble doesn't give defenses any leisure. Fun times.

So no 1000/1000? Three games left. Let's do it for Roger Craig!

Still on pace for 1000/1000

Needs 78 more rushing yards and 140 more receiving yards in the next 3 games to make history.

He will get the rushing. Not so sure about receiving. Need more check downs.

Only needs 47 yds per game receiving. Definitely attainable, if the games dictate it. One big reception could really boost his chances.

Not sure he's got any more big play ability. His avg's are low for a reason...his numbers are coming from the massive number of touches Kyle is force feeding his way. At least he's holding up.

What are you talking about? This is the highest season avg for receptions in his career with a long of 39 that was a big play. The running plays is because the line has not gave him a gapping lane to run thru and he's not had a lot of downfield blocking that Brandon Aiyuk was great at.

That's hilariously stupid. Even if one were to point to his run yards average that's an indictment of the OL, not him.

What a player.

Nearly 150 all purpose yards and 2 Touchdowns.

He's so efficient at everything he does.

He looks the same running to me when there is some blocking

I notice him a little slower, but still very effective.
