Your coach is an idiot.
I mean I live in AZ I can safely say the Cardinals fan base is full of idiots.
He's not entirely wrong. I mean, I get that McCaffrey is a special player, who apparently never wants to come out, but as the team's coach, Shanahan has to protect players from themselves and do what's best for the team in the long run. Which means he should do everything he can to make sure that McCaffery is available in December and January, not just September and October. Personally, I think he uses him too much. I know their running back room is a little banged up at the moment but, at the same time, if he doesn't have any faith in the other backs to help carry the load then why are they on the team.
CMC is their best RB and one of the better receivers. With so many WRs banged up Kyle might feel he needs him in the lineup as a threat. Maybe once some of the WRs start coming back they won't need that threat as much.
