But as always, the 49ers are significantly stronger whenever Christian McCaffrey is on the field. Against the Giants, he set multiple new records, with one achievement joining him to an exclusive club and placing him among a very select group of players to represent San Francisco.

McCaffrey ran for a three-yard score to put the 49ers up on the Giants 34-17 with 4:13 left to play and that gave him 16 career games with both a rushing and a receiving score. That broke a tie with Marshall Faulk for the most in NFL history.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey takes the toss sweep for a 16-yard surge. Indianapolis Colts defensive end Laiatu Latu lassos Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers for a 7-yard sack.
