Kurtenbach: The 49ers put their season in Christian McCaffrey’s hands, feet, and arm. After a historic performance, anything seems possible
Back to the three-touchdown feat, because it cannot be glanced over: McCaffrey is the fourth player since 1970 to achieve the hat trick, joining Patriots receiver David Patton and Hall of Famers Walter Payton and LaDainian Tomlinson. The latter was the last to achieve the feat 17 years ago before Sunday.And now playing for a franchise that boasts some of the greatest offensive players of all time — including the G.O.A.T.
His touchdown catch saw him go at least three feet in the air to snag Garoppolo’s pass to the corner of the end zone. A beauty. Do It All Deebo carried the Niners for months last season — all the way to the NFC Championship Game — but with the Niners leaning on him again early this season, defenses were starting to figure out how to slow him, and ergo, the Niners, down.
In all, the running back-slash-receiver-slash-quarterback had 183 yards from scrimmage — nearly half of the 49ers’ total.
