Did not like the split carries, CMC was avg 2 more yard per carry than Black and showed who was the better back. Should have been CMC with 18 carries and Black 6 would have been a better rotation. This we want to preserve CMC you pay him 20 mil. to perform now , even if we did preserve him we want keep him past another 2 years because his contract would be to expensive. Why is CMC the only player in the league you hear a fan base lets watch his touch to preserve you look at the other top players there fans want more touches. If we want to baby him don't ask him to chip on DE like Myles he take more punishment for that block than most of his touches.

Disagree with this. He didn't have 2 yards per carry more than Black in the first half. He got there in the second after we were on top and had worn the D down. Black was a part of that.

Kyle also said CMC missed a couple of plays due to cramp and on top of that Black was playing well and earned those extra carries.

Just looking at the end of game stats doesn't tell you everything about the performance and the flow of the game qtr to qtr.

Don't care what you agree with the fact are the facts the first have of the game CMC had 2 rushes and you do look at the whole game if your scouting ." Rams sold out more to stop the run in the second half when we had the league than in the first half. PFF also had CMC a lot better a 75.7 run grade vs Black a 57 run grade game so yes it's 2 more yards per carry.
Fk your fantasy team

We want CMC fresh at the end of the season
CMC carrying is good for us, but we also have to be realistic in the dudes health history and how Kyle seems to want to punch him through brick walls some times. Gotta find that balance

Not fantasy you dumb sh!tt don't even play it maybe you stupid a$$ does and that's why you want Black to get the carries cause you picked him late and think your some guru now , There will be a game it cost us

Yeah dude, what are you talking about. We've been begging for years to get a timeshare going with CMC. We finally get one & now you want CMC to get even more touches. We dominated the Rams with our approach! The only reason you would need CMC to get more touches is if you have him on your fantasy team which I for one do (2 out of my 3 teams). But at least for me, fantasy football is secondary to my Niner fandom. I'll take a Niner win 24/7 over a fantasy football W. But having both is real nice lol!

What are you thinking Black is better than CMC lol , this is has nothing to do with fantasy but on any other team the best player gets the touches and this is not close that's why CMC had a higher run grade and more yards per carry and if we're going to go far this year you got to get it to the best back unless you ready to trade CMC . Not a fan of a timeshare give the starter some rest and don't play the starter when the game out of reach but other than that give him the ball that's what we pay him 20 mil for not to stand on the sideline.

You sound like someone fun to be around. Niners won enjoy it. Kyle knows more then any of us.
This guy is a tough runner who is 5'9 205. Please stay healthy sir.
Can run block, a downhill runner, did we just find another Frank Gore.

Yeah. Im Gores number 1 fan so its hard for me not to compare short rbs with good vision to him. Black is in that mold but i highly doubt hes another Gore. Hes the only guy who can turn 2 yards into 6 consistently.

But if Black can be like 75% of what Gore was this backfield can carry the team alone.

Was hoping before the game to see a 3-headed monster st RB, then saw the inactives list. Thought we'd see a little of Black and was pleasantly surprised seeing A LOT of Black.
Love it. Keep CMC fresh, get the Rook a ton of reps and experience.
Please stay healthy!
I said it after the game, but the play where Black picked up the 6 yards in the catch to make it 3rd and manageable was so good. On one hand, Brock threw the ball blind, and on the other, the rookie was right where he needed to be and displayed soft hands to brag that ball at his shins. Those are back-breaking plays against pressure. The defense does everything right and they still get burned.

To be fair Kyle finally seems to have grown a bit this off season in regards to playing an additional RB lol

Agree, if there is a 49er comparison to CMC, it would be Roger Craig. But Roger was 20+ pounds bigger than CMC.
The rookie played very well.

Good draft pick-up.
