And they say white people don't get racially stereotyping. He's also breaking that False statement. White people get racially stereotyped just as much as black people do. Just because you don't always hear about it or always see it doesn't mean it's not true.
I disagree look at college baseball golf hockey lacrosse soccer etc there's more white athletes because of the opportunity to succeed. They can't compete in football and in nba they have to be smart tough n skilled like European white players
His vision running the ball is off the charts and he can literally be a WR if he wanted. Crazy versatility. Him and Deebo on the same team is a cheat code.
@@13Kr4zYAzN13 They had high hopes for another hybrid Jaylen Hurd in 2018 (?) who played at both WR and RB in college. He was never healthy, but they are always looking for ball handlers that can be moved around.
@@Truthseeker9393 Single-handedly? They were in the NFC championship game last year with a third string QB and no CMC. Kittle, Williams, Ayuk, Debo and a defense that had the player of the year. He is a nice addition to a stacked team. His backup averages over six yards a carry, but doesn't run patterns. Best roster in football top to bottom.
Guy is truly blessed. It was great for him to get to the Niners. He fits right in with that offense, plus, the other teams just can't focus on him and him alone on coverage, shutting him down, or taking him out. The Niners having so many weapons is what will extend his career, give him the best odds of staying healthy barring freak injuries, and actually make him even more dangerous. Once again, dude's blessed. Will be on the list of the greatest RBs ever to play the game, already.
He has known Kyle as a kid, when their dad's were working on the same team. Also, he broke the NCAA yardage record while playing at Stanford, so we in the Bay Area already know who he is.
@@carl6352 Everyone was so worried about run after short passes because they saw Brock as an undersized system QB, they let him throw down field. In the stretch of losses, teams stayed disciplined up front and not chase a play beyond responsibility. Niners will confuse you. And play safties over top.
81 year old Niner fan here...I have always been a fan (born & raised in S.F.)..I was at a football game when his trade to the Niners was announced..I knew the Niners struck "GOLD" ---with that trade..I would like to see the results of the draft picks that the Niners let go for him...Whatever those were---IT WAS WORTH IT.... I am a Cal Bears fan, and CMC was playing for Stanford --a bitter rival..I always liked and respected his play...So---welcome to the Niners...Lets win and set some records!!!!
Did you get a chance to watch them in the days of Tittle, R.C. Owens, Billy Wilson, J.D. Smith, Abe Woodson, Leo Nomellini, Bob St. Clair, and the Million-Dollar Backfield at Kezar? I was just a kid and my dad would try and get in to see at least 2 games a year. I remember some terrible rainy and muddy games there.
@@luberdoo1950 I went to most of the Niner games every year from 1950 through 1967..As an 8 year old kid in 1951 I was awarded a football signed by all the Niners---AT THE FIFTY YARD LINE ---during half time..I was familiar with all the names and had one hell of a time cheering for our NINERS...Hope to see them win some more titles...
@@garyjensen3414 I am envious! I remember seeing Bob St. Clair in Noe Valley. I think he owned a store on 24th. That was in '61, I was 11 at the time. I know he had a liquor store in the Mission on 24th near Sanchez, if I remember right.
Being a Niner Faithful since I was 8 years-old (73, now), I would compare him to Roger Craig, the original 1000+1000 Man. In '85, when he accomplished that, he also had 92 receptions and scored 6 TDs. He helped the Niners win 3 SBs, gained 8199 rushing and 4911 receiving, scored 56 TDs rushing and 17 receiving, was part of teams that went 117-47, went to the Pro Bowl 4X and made All-Pro 2X...and yet, not in the NFL HOF!
The 49ers got so much better when they got him. I was happy for him because he played so well with the Panthers but that team was going no where. Love that he gets a good chance of getting to a Super Bowl with this team. Good luck Christian
Agreed. I was a Panther fan but was glad to see him go someplace and have the career he deserved before the Panthers destroyed his health like they did to Luke Kuechly.
In high school I played on a mixed team. Think Remember The Titans. My 40 times were equal to anybody on the team. Yet, I was made to play safety, slot and blocking back as a sophomore. Finally, I asked the DC to allow me to play cb/wr/tb/kr on the scout teams. After locking all our wr down, making people miss as a kr, consistently getting to the edge as a tb and getting separation as a wr gainst the 1s I was still back up except for slot, safety and kr. Lead the team in picks, tds, total yards, tackles and had 0 penalties for 2 seasons. It was tough to take knowing I could play those positions better than the 1s playing them. Yet, there was a perception about me being white that I couldn't shake to start at skill positions. At 5'10, 175 I was undersized. Totally relate to CMC. Except my dad was an auto mechanic not an NFL player. lol
It is call the caste system in football. Racial slotting. Idiot coaches and GM’s from high school up through the NFL all miss out on potential superstars because of racial biases. Black quarterbacks are making big-time headway and are no longer seen as an exception to the rule. Hopefully the white athlete makes headways as well. Keep preaching and raise the awareness to get the best player on the field -at all levels- period, regardless of skin color.
The best thing that ever happened to this incredible young man was getting traded to the 49ers where he has a chance to win the super bowl. The panthers are so bad that I cannot stand watching them play today but love the 49ers because of Brock and Christian. He has been amazing.
I'm so glad he finally is getting the recognition he deserves!! He would have not gotten this in Carolina. I can't wait to see how far he's going to go!! A lot of young, amazing men on this 49ers team!!!
Christian reminds me of Walter Peyton. This dude puts the work in and you can see it in his performance and longevity. He just needed a team like SF to break loose. He is solid now with SF and is a humble and patient man that shines in the NFL. Awesome all purpose back!
Agree on some points. Dude is a straight beast. But, he'll never be all pro. Traded around because he doesn't break lines. He's in that Grey area where open field is excellent but he's too small. That's no hate. Dude obviously works harder than most. I'd trade kelce for him and a 2 first round picks, but the O line isn't set up for a running threat in kc.
If Cmac gets shutdown in the bowl, he's just gonna be another rb. If he magically crashes lines and shrugs secondaries, he could be great. I don't see that happening.
Yeah, this is crazy talk. I was a top level RB from 7th to grade until I graduated high school, (AAAAA) the highest rating for schools in the 80's, in my state). I was often in the backfield with some completely dominant, game changing White RB's.
I did, nearly 100 schools sent me letters of interest. I was a beast at 6'1" 215 lbs. 4.3 40 yard dash. I went to OU (Sooners) on a full ride for baseball, instead. @@MbisonBalrog
For you young ones, John Riggins 71-85. 5 seasons w/NYJ & 9 with Wash. He was a dog gettin the hard yards. 6-2, 230-pound Riggins was a workhorse ball carrier specializing in the tough yardage in the big games. 2,916 carry's/11,352 yards. 104 TD's, 250 passes for 2,090 yards and 12 touchdowns. 92 HOF
I shall add: the Jets should have utilized him more when Namath was there. Namath got more calls for performance. Just one of those things, however, when Namath left they should have gone Bore 4 Riggins. And, he stayed out a year. And, he blocked a lot for Joe Washington. Deservedly for JW, but another one of those things. I don't know, maybe, combine those setbacks and he'd have had two 1,000 yard years. Certainly, other RB's have had bad or hindering twists of fate, but I'll hold to the position that the Jets and whoever should've gone Bore 4. (Bore 4 is the large, large diameter of a certain rifle. Don't get in the way.)
John Riggins was a beast.Raw power and like Cmc great acceleration. Riggins was a joy to watch and the man to count on inclutch moments.They both had that ability to elude tacklers that is so hard to describe.They both are animals on the field.
Dave Sime, his grandfather, did win the silver in the Olympics. He proably would have won if he had been in the next lane to Armin Hary, who won the race, and supposedly got a rolling start. There were no wired starting blocks in those days.
Remember watching him at Stanford.... Dudes been a beast always. Definitely will go down as one of the greatest at that position. As a Niners fan.... thoroughly happy we got him! And he's proven all those haters wrong! #GoNiners
Stanford had a run of great college running backs: Tommy Vardell, Toby Gerhardt (who had over 1800 yards his senior year), Christian, Bryce Love, and Glyn Milburn.
Very well made mini-doc, Sir. It strikes the right amount of context, including his family, career thus far, prejudice against him, while going into the meat of his stats. Great balance there. Good Job!
IKR! His skills as a running back are clearly natural and a God given gift, race plays no part in a person's ability to understand and excel at his position. Let's not forget about Larry Csonka, John Riggings, Mike Alstott and so forth
I'm a die hard Niner fan and also a die hard Hawkeye fan (Dad went to Iowa U). We went to the Iowa vs Stanfordd Rose Bowl, 4th row on the 40 yard line. Christian broke our hearts on the first play of the game, 75 yard play action that split our secondary right down the middle. I'll never forget the sounds of his cleats hitting the turf and him huffin and puffin, I remember screaming "GET HIM! GET HIM!... they're not gonna get him" right as he passed by us. George Kittle was also a Hawk at that game, I can not describe the wave of emotions I felt when he got traded to the niners, I can't lie I was still mad aalty over the Rose Bowl. It only took one game in red and gold to completely clean the slate on my attitude towards CMC, Dude is a once in a generation freak of nature on the gridiron. 1st ballot HoF without a shadow of a doubt. This niner team is magical, I have never felt as much excitement and faith in my niners to get that Superbowl dub.
he OBLITERATED my beloved condoms in every game they played, basically beat the shit outa them by himself!!!.I saw him alot in college because i live in pac -12 territory and he was a beast then.
@@yourdaddy6030 Still feeling pretty confident. Brock took the L in stride like a man and took the blame and seems like he's learned from the mistakes. 3/4 of those picks were deflected or off the receivers hands jus sayin. Shanahan should've ran the ball waaaay more when CMC had 7 YPC, don't know why we threw it 51 times ffs. Football is a week by week sport, my dude. What matters is the playoffs; and still looks like we've got the first round bye and HFA locked in if we can win out. Why you so salty that you felt compelled to come to a two week old video to throw shade? You a Seahawk fan or somethin?
Today on Christmas day I picked up a 1/1 Christian McCaffrey card off eBay. I truly believe they will win this year, and even if they don't, if he stays with the 49ers that team is crazy good together and he is definately a staple to it. I honestly vote this guy MVP, reminds me of Gore, back in the day. One of my favorite players in 49er history. Go Christian McCaffrey! Amazing plays.
I came here to type one thing- and while you didn't use it as a comparison in running styles, I say there is some. Not a ton, but CMC has some sweetness in him. Watch him run- watch for his sweeping-stutter-step deke- it's so beautiful when I see him do it, which he just did recently. See if you can find it. I'm guessing you might make another video.. or not- but you'll love it, I believe. Great video. Growing up a 49er's Broncos fan, sure got to see a lot in my 63 years.
Dude! This exactly. I'm 49 years old and grew up with Walter. Much to my surprise, that's who he reminds me of the most. Walter was "little" 5'10" 202 - but ran with pure violence and was mega-tough. I don't think CMC is quite so violent, but he has that Sweetness feel for sure. Good call!
My comment can only be about you, and your channel. Excellent. Christian is who brought me here on searches.... but I really think this is one of the best videos I've seen summing up his career this far. Truly KjSpeaks. You are very good at what you are doing. Keep it up.
He looks relaxed, flexible, and loose. Adjusts great running, breaking tackles, moving through tacklers, yardage after catches. Glad the 49ers got him. Go Niners!
A better comparison is Roger Craig Both not huge Running Backs but run with violent intent and keep churning after contact Also both are/were ELITE pass catchers out of the backfield No surprise that they're both 1,000/1,000 running backs Marshall Faulk is also a 1,000/1,000 running back but his running style was way more elusive and less predicated on running through contact
@@jowsmith1904 Faulk ran like Barry Sanders with extreme elusiveness CMC can be elusive but nowhere near that level. He follows blocks well, has good vision, breaks through contact. Never goes down easy Now that I think about his running style is more like Frank Gore
I encourage you to continue to make videos ..it seems your back after 2 years of no videos …this content will blow up soon all u need to do is keep doing what your doing
Found this video because i was curious how many white feature backs have played before him. This is a real good video you put a lot of research into. Got my sub. Keep it up man. Channel deserves to gain some popularity
@@chrisz3624 Craig James with the Patriots in the mid-'80s, but only briefly. He had one great 1000-yard rushing season and led NE to their first Super Bowl appearance. Injuries shortened his career.
Great review of CMC sir 🤘🏻. In addition to the old school backs you mentioned that compared, I would have to add Thurman Thomas and Kieth Byers; off the charts running intellect, balance and the ability to see the field and of course the versatility Thurmanator and KB possessed.
I dont look at McCaffery as white or black. Sports was one of the few places we didnt even look at race. We were a team. A family. I just admired how McCaffery ran in college foward. I love how he can "cross people up" when he switches the ball into the opposite arm while at the same time cut the other way.
CMC not getting the Heisman was big time nonsense. But, every cloud has a silver lining. I’ve never heard him complain about the Heisman snub……. But it is clearly the chip on his shoulder that he carries down the field every time he runs with the ball. I followed his career at Stanford, I am so happy to see him as part of this fantastic 49er team.
This is my dude,hes always been my dude! The running back was always the most athletic guy on the field, now wr more so. Excellent video, subject, and production.
Larry Csonka , John Riggins ,Thurman Thomas , Roger Craig = Christian McCaffrey 100%. This kid is incredible and has done enough to get in the Hall on first valet
0:54 I know this feeling I was incredibly athletic as a teenager, I would say gifted. I was so far beyond what the other guys could do that it made my peers angry and they'd form little hate groups and always try to dog shot me in the gym any chance they could (and they'd repeatedly get humiliated for even trying) These guys used to make off-handed comments like ''this guy from x school is going to smash you on the weekend when you play against him'' etc For all my athletic gifts, I was not prepared for the self doubt. their snarky comments got through to me and I went from hero to zero pretty quick. Never really recovered from it 👁
He is not undersized. 5’11”, 210 lbs. Adrian Peterson was 6’1” and 215 lbs. so thinner. No one ever said he was too small. It is a very rare running back to be over 225 lbs.
I've been watching him since his first game as a true freshman. By far my favorite collegiate player of all time, and by far my favorite player in the NFL today. I've been a Steelers' fan my whole life, but I'm cheering for the 9ers now. They got my favorite coach, favorite player, a few other players I'm a big fan of like Kittle, Bosa and Juice, and they're the most fun to watch. I was so glad to see him get traded out of that joke of a team down in Carolina. Now he's finally in a system that fits him, with some talent around him so they can't key on him alone, and he's unstoppable.
Brilliant, balanced, review. Well done and we’ll done Christian. And don’t forget mom and dad - must be sooooo proud. The boy is a beast athlete and appears to be just an awesome overall person.
As one OC said “Christian is the only back in the NFL that can run the entire route tree at an elite level.” He’s not too bad at carrying the rock either…
Brother....I really enjoyed this video....and the time you must have taken with vintage footage of Christian as a kid....excelling etc....! I am an ole' UGA BULLDOG....(got to witness Hershel Walker...run track.....etc...and , of course, the 1980 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP! All this said.....you really have captured....how SPECTACULAR CHRISTIAN HAS BEEN AND...seems to CONTINUE TO BE!! Just Amazing! Merry Christmas! 2023...Leighton E. Tillman III
Did everybody forget his 2019 season?? I feel like there should never have been hate and the stereotypes should've been broken that year. Dude had 1387 rushing yards on 287 carries, 15 TDs with an 84 yard run on the season and averaged 4.8 YPC.. Sounds like a great year right? Well, he also had 116 receptions on 142 targets for 1,005 receiving yards and 4 TDs and get this: he fumbled the ball ONE time and did NOT lose the fumble. Yep. Zero turnovers the whole year and he played in every game and in 93% of ALL of Carolina's offensive snaps lol. One of the most underrated individual performances on a whole season in any sport, ever imo. And yet, he wasn't even really in the MVP conversation, the top 3 MVP contenders that season were Lamar Jackson, Russ and Michael Thomas. Lamar: 3,127 passing yards, 1,206 rushing yards, 43 total TDs, 6 INTs Russ: 4,110 passing yards, 342 rushing yards, 34 total TDs, 5 INTs Thomas: 149 receptions, 1,725 yards, 9 TDs McCaffery finished the season breaking his OWN record for most receptions by a running back (lol) AND he had the THIRD highest total yards from scrimmage of any player in NFL history and didn't even get *considered* for MVP. Now, I am not saying Lamar didn't deserve to win MVP with his historic season as well - but it's a travesty to me that CMC wasn't even in the conversation, especially considering Michael Thomas was and granted, he had a historic year as well breaking Marvin Harrison's all time reception record but it's not nearly as impressive as CMCs accolades on the season imho - personally, I would have had CMC second only to Lamar that year. Kinda tired of MVP being the "QB of the year" award but 2019 Lamar def deserved it. And just throwing this in there, if Jahmyr Gibbs stays healthy he looks like he could be the next one of these Kamara/CMC dual threat type backs. Loving that kid's game.
CMC is extremely well suited in Shanahan's offense because of his versatility. Roger Craig was versatile in Bill Walsh's offense back when with the same result: Defenses just don't know how to cover you. And... AND.. they utilize Deebo's versatility in much the same way. They're rewriting the formula on winning. I'm not even going to get into Purdy, it's laughable what he's doing. A man who is told he won't amount to anything is dangerous, and the 49ers are loaded with them.
Craig also had Rathman in the backfield. Less speed but could power through tackles, run routes, and had great hands. Another swiss army knife player in the $(ers west coast system.
Christian doesn't have to prove himself anymore. If anyone's undecided since he joined the 49ers it's their problem. I've been a McCaffrey fan since he played with Carolina. I'm glad he is playing with a Superbowl winning team and I hope he gets his ring.
It amazes me how east coast fans completely ignore west coast football. He set the record for yards from scrimmage in the history of NCAA football, and nobody seems to have heard of him until the NFL. He did not even win the Heisman that year. Especially because he was at Stanford, known for academics, Before him was Toby Gehrhard who had over 1800 yards his senior year and led the NCAA in points, TDs and yards but lost the Heisman to Ingram
Christian McCafferty can pass, run, block and catch at football at the NFL level! He got to be very power to block a charging lineman and not get penalized!😂
This is a very well put-together video... kudos for a nice representation and analysis of how good this guy really is. Hard work, great DNA, incredible natural ability, and heart.
The thought I was the punter they misspelled my name - this is really funny. He has heart, pride and grew up being under-estimated. I appreciate this video.
Christian McCaffrey is literally 1 in a million. I'm not used to seeing short white guys with speed play football as RB. I've been impressed with him since his Stanford days. We called him (White⚡)🤟🏿 GO 49ERS!!!!!!
I know many. Your 1 in Million is only valid in regards to Talent VS Opportunity. The NFL and NBA have purposely keeping many good White athletes suppressed over the past 20 years. I know, I'm one of them.
Marshall Faulk is a great comp, supremely talented runner, has moves on top of moves, great acceleration, difficult to bring down after first contact, amazing hands, blocks well when needed.
I am old enough to rmember Sweetness, Gayle Sayers, I was a big fan of those two. Never got to see Sanders run enough. Earl Campbell, Sanders etc. Sanders is the only one who comes close. Christian is the only running back I've seen do it all, shedding tackles, throwing passes?, great blocking, totally unselfish, receiving. He's unique and I wouldn't compare him to anyone who just runs the ball. Besides all that he is tough and will give a hit as good as he gets.
Stereotype shattered you should see who holds the world record in the Triple Jump. And talk about Stereotyps...The Liberal Press and Black Lives Matter will never...ever ever ever..mention Jim Thorpe.
I was never a Carolina Panthers fan, but I loved watching Christian McCaffrey play. And only after watching this video did I find out that he was the son of one of my favorite Bronco players, Ed. I started following the Broncos when I was about 4, way back in 1971! Sounds like his Dad did a lot of positive things to help Christian's chances in the pros.
He got robbed of the Heisman in college. Most White running backs are in the mold of the Hall of Fame RB John Riggins, that is a big super powerful back with just straight line speed that will hit those holes or just purposefully run over people like Riggins did. People are not used to White running Backs with moves, lateral speed etc. He reminds me most of Marshall Faulk or a poor mans Walter Payton.
Christian is a monster talent. One thing that was not mentioned is his ability to create space where other running backs simply don’t see it. He has great vision and the ability to get to open space quickly, all over the field. That is a unique talent. When there’s apparently no where to run, he finds the gap, seem in the defense to pick up that extra yard or many yards that go unnoticed by others. As a former running back cut by the Steelers, Christian, I love watching you play. All the best.
Don’t hate on my boy fournette. Dude helped me win my fantasy leagues for a few years. He was a beast. Dude should honestly still be a number 1 for any team imo.🤷♂️
Great video 👍 Nailed comparisons to other backs. Only missed one key 🔑 fact! Who was his maternal grandfather? Dave Sime - Olympic sprinter and once “fastest man on earth.” Humans love their stereotypes. Rise above it ☝🏼“As one!” - Gladiator
Many White Boys have not been given opportunities to prove themselves over the past 20 years. His Dad helped him that so many other White kids didn't have but all things considered, CMC is an absolute STUD! Well done Sir! BRAVO
affirmative action is the worst thing ever. You know who needs to prove themselves and they haven’t for the past 140+ years since Lincoln did what he did…..
I thought unicorns only existed in the NBA and fairy tales. What a great profile. And kudos to his Dad for showing him the way and pushing him down the path.
Christian is an was what is commonly known as a “Weapon” in football, he will go down in history as the most underrated running back in league history, yet his stats and records will put him in the same category as Walter Payton, Jim Brown, Barry Sanders. The only issue of race in this equation is he was always considered to be too slow when actually because of both his parents made him train and work to maximize his skill set, he ran track to improve his speed and he dedicated himself to improving his overall speed and cuts! Therefore he is the ultimate weapon in modern football a player at the running back position that can play many other positions. A WEAPON!
Oh I know. Panthers absolutely suck. Not watching them anymore, especially with everything going on. Just gonna pull for the 49ners until Panthers get their act together and pull for CMC.
And they say white people don't get racially stereotyping. He's also breaking that False statement. White people get racially stereotyped just as much as black people do. Just because you don't always hear about it or always see it doesn't mean it's not true.

The 49ers got so much better when they got him. I was happy for him because he played so well with the Panthers but that team was going no where. Love that he gets a good chance of getting to a Super Bowl with this team. Good luck Christian
The Niners have had good backs, they just don't stay healthy. Think Brieda and Mostert. Not that they are better, but I hope he stays healthier.
Agreed. I was a Panther fan but was glad to see him go someplace and have the career he deserved before the Panthers destroyed his health like they did to Luke Kuechly.
Mcaffery is an animal on the field. I really enjoy watching him tear out defenses.
In high school I played on a mixed team. Think Remember The Titans. My 40 times were equal to anybody on the team. Yet, I was made to play safety, slot and blocking back as a sophomore. Finally, I asked the DC to allow me to play cb/wr/tb/kr on the scout teams. After locking all our wr down, making people miss as a kr, consistently getting to the edge as a tb and getting separation as a wr gainst the 1s I was still back up except for slot, safety and kr. Lead the team in picks, tds, total yards, tackles and had 0 penalties for 2 seasons. It was tough to take knowing I could play those positions better than the 1s playing them. Yet, there was a perception about me being white that I couldn't shake to start at skill positions. At 5'10, 175 I was undersized. Totally relate to CMC. Except my dad was an auto mechanic not an NFL player. lol
Have kids and maybe one if them will earn the opportunity. Your story is more common than you realize bud. It is BS.
That’s because of these racist black supremacists out here tryin to keep the white man from outshining them, even when they’re clearly better.
No shame your dad being an auto mechanic
Same story for me, except I was 5'8"', 150 lbs wet.
It is call the caste system in football. Racial slotting.
Idiot coaches and GM’s from high school up through the NFL all miss out on potential superstars because of racial biases.
Black quarterbacks are making big-time headway and are no longer seen as an exception to the rule.
Hopefully the white athlete makes headways as well. Keep preaching and raise the awareness to get the best player on the field -at all levels- period, regardless of skin color.
The best thing that ever happened to this incredible young man was getting traded to the 49ers where he has a chance to win the super bowl. The panthers are so bad that I cannot stand watching them play today but love the 49ers because of Brock and Christian. He has been amazing.
I'm so glad he finally is getting the recognition he deserves!! He would have not gotten this in Carolina. I can't wait to see how far he's going to go!! A lot of young, amazing men on this 49ers team!!!
Yeah best RB in fantasy for a while, so no.
Man. We're so lucky to have this dude.
His move to the Niners was the greatest thing that could have happened to his career. He's going to enter the HOF because of it.
He reminds me of Marshall Faulk more than anyone. Barry is 1 of 1. LT was not as versatile as cmc. So him and Marshall are most similar I think
I agree his closest comparison is Marshall Faulk
CMC is a 1 of 1
Not as versatile ?? LT had a season with 100 receptions , and THREW for 7 TDs in his career.
I tend to agree
@@NinersFan69 Thanks for your comment, I didn't know that!
This was a gift from Carolina…. I know they are sad to not have him but I hope they are damn happy about what he is doing
WE are HAPPY for him in Carolina! Go 49ers!
Christian reminds me of Walter Peyton. This dude puts the work in and you can see it in his performance and longevity. He just needed a team like SF to break loose. He is solid now with SF and is a humble and patient man that shines in the NFL. Awesome all purpose back!
I’m sorry
Walter and Christian
To totally different beast.
Watch a documentary on “sweetness”
You’ll see.
@@knix7329I've seen it. I am not trying to place Christian above the all time greats, but he is an awesome RB.
Agree on some points. Dude is a straight beast. But, he'll never be all pro. Traded around because he doesn't break lines. He's in that Grey area where open field is excellent but he's too small. That's no hate. Dude obviously works harder than most.
I'd trade kelce for him and a 2 first round picks, but the O line isn't set up for a running threat in kc.
If Cmac gets shutdown in the bowl, he's just gonna be another rb. If he magically crashes lines and shrugs secondaries, he could be great.
I don't see that happening.
Chiefs fan. I like Cmac. Chiefs D is not a fluke.
Yeah, this is crazy talk. I was a top level RB from 7th to grade until I graduated high school, (AAAAA) the highest rating for schools in the 80's, in my state). I was often in the backfield with some completely dominant, game changing White RB's.
Did you get recruited to play college?
I did, nearly 100 schools sent me letters of interest. I was a beast at 6'1" 215 lbs. 4.3 40 yard dash. I went to OU (Sooners) on a full ride for baseball, instead. @@MbisonBalrog
For you young ones, John Riggins 71-85. 5 seasons w/NYJ & 9 with Wash. He was a dog gettin the hard yards. 6-2, 230-pound Riggins was a workhorse ball carrier specializing in the tough yardage in the big games. 2,916 carry's/11,352 yards. 104 TD's, 250 passes for 2,090 yards and 12 touchdowns. 92 HOF
I shall add: the Jets should have utilized him more when Namath was there. Namath got more calls for performance. Just one of those things, however, when Namath left they should have gone Bore 4 Riggins. And, he stayed out a year. And, he blocked a lot for Joe Washington. Deservedly for JW, but another one of those things. I don't know, maybe, combine those setbacks and he'd have had two 1,000 yard years. Certainly, other RB's have had bad or hindering twists of fate, but I'll hold to the position that the Jets and whoever should've gone Bore 4. (Bore 4 is the large, large diameter of a certain rifle. Don't get in the way.)
John Riggins was a beast.Raw power and like Cmc great acceleration. Riggins was a joy to watch and the man to count on inclutch moments.They both had that ability to elude tacklers that is so hard to describe.They both are animals on the field.
he has always been top notch...just has a good line and team like he did in his days at Stanford
His maternal grandfather was a silver medalist in the 100 meter in the Olympics. In the 1960s I believe. Speed is in his genes
Yes, Dave Sime.
Great genes, big heart, and a chip, great combination.
Dave Sime, his grandfather, did win the silver in the Olympics. He proably would have won if he had been in the next lane to Armin Hary, who won the race, and supposedly got a rolling start. There were no wired starting blocks in those days.
And he probably would have won olympic gold in the 4x100 if not for a botched handoff.
+ Nobody is working 6 hours a day, to be pro, in the first place. The mind leads the body.
This is so well researched and put together! Enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you :-)
I love watching this man play. I’m a Dolpfan!!! Christian has me watching 49ers, all day.
Remember watching him at Stanford.... Dudes been a beast always. Definitely will go down as one of the greatest at that position. As a Niners fan.... thoroughly happy we got him!
And he's proven all those haters wrong!
#GoNiners
And must be very intelligent, dude went to Stanford.
@@thomasneal7126 correct, you hear it in his conversations..definitely NOT a "know whut i mean" tard.
Stanford had a run of great college running backs: Tommy Vardell, Toby Gerhardt (who had over 1800 yards his senior year), Christian, Bryce Love, and Glyn Milburn.
Very well made mini-doc, Sir.
It strikes the right amount of context, including his family, career thus far, prejudice against him, while going into the meat of his stats. Great balance there.
Good Job!
CMC should be the MVP this year
IKR! His skills as a running back are clearly natural and a God given gift, race plays no part in a person's ability to understand and excel at his position. Let's not forget about Larry Csonka, John Riggings, Mike Alstott and so forth
Now it's 939 yds rushing yards and 11 rushing TD's. 389 receiving yards and 5 receiving td's
Another great video KJ. You are very talented.
I appreciate it, Thanks for the support
I'm a die hard Niner fan and also a die hard Hawkeye fan (Dad went to Iowa U). We went to the Iowa vs Stanfordd Rose Bowl, 4th row on the 40 yard line. Christian broke our hearts on the first play of the game, 75 yard play action that split our secondary right down the middle. I'll never forget the sounds of his cleats hitting the turf and him huffin and puffin, I remember screaming "GET HIM! GET HIM!... they're not gonna get him" right as he passed by us. George Kittle was also a Hawk at that game, I can not describe the wave of emotions I felt when he got traded to the niners, I can't lie I was still mad aalty over the Rose Bowl.
It only took one game in red and gold to completely clean the slate on my attitude towards CMC, Dude is a once in a generation freak of nature on the gridiron. 1st ballot HoF without a shadow of a doubt. This niner team is magical, I have never felt as much excitement and faith in my niners to get that Superbowl dub.
he OBLITERATED my beloved condoms in every game they played, basically beat the shit outa them by himself!!!.I saw him alot in college because i live in pac -12 territory and he was a beast then.
How you feeling about the Super Bowl after the Ravens smacked you guys around?
@@yourdaddy6030 Still feeling pretty confident. Brock took the L in stride like a man and took the blame and seems like he's learned from the mistakes. 3/4 of those picks were deflected or off the receivers hands jus sayin. Shanahan should've ran the ball waaaay more when CMC had 7 YPC, don't know why we threw it 51 times ffs.
Football is a week by week sport, my dude. What matters is the playoffs; and still looks like we've got the first round bye and HFA locked in if we can win out.
Why you so salty that you felt compelled to come to a two week old video to throw shade? You a Seahawk fan or somethin?
Today on Christmas day I picked up a 1/1 Christian McCaffrey card off eBay. I truly believe they will win this year, and even if they don't, if he stays with the 49ers that team is crazy good together and he is definately a staple to it. I honestly vote this guy MVP, reminds me of Gore, back in the day. One of my favorite players in 49er history. Go Christian McCaffrey! Amazing plays.
Didn't they lose to the Kansas Chiefs?
I came here to type one thing- and while you didn't use it as a comparison in running styles, I say there is some. Not a ton, but CMC has some sweetness in him. Watch him run- watch for his sweeping-stutter-step deke- it's so beautiful when I see him do it, which he just did recently.
See if you can find it. I'm guessing you might make another video.. or not- but you'll love it, I believe. Great video. Growing up a 49er's Broncos fan, sure got to see a lot in my 63 years.
Dude! This exactly. I'm 49 years old and grew up with Walter. Much to my surprise, that's who he reminds me of the most. Walter was "little" 5'10" 202 - but ran with pure violence and was mega-tough. I don't think CMC is quite so violent, but he has that Sweetness feel for sure. Good call!
My comment can only be about you, and your channel. Excellent. Christian is who brought me here on searches.... but I really think this is one of the best videos I've seen summing up his career this far. Truly KjSpeaks. You are very good at what you are doing. Keep it up.
Hey man, great video you made. Kept me glued to the screen. Keep it up!
appreciate it samuel !
Running back highlights are some of the coolest moments in sports. Slowmotion replays emphasize the beauty and violence of the sport
watched the whole video, I was hooked the whole time, you're so underrated!!! W video
Seriously, it was really goood
w support 🤝🏾
Just hope dude can finally stay healthy, hes elite on the field all the time, but he also has dealt with more injuries than even Saquon
It’s been mostly minor though I’d rather have his injury history than saquons
A lot less severe injury’s though. He had two injured seasons out 7 years. And still played some games during those injured seasons
He's played in twice as many games as Saquon except.2020 and part of 2021, he has played 5 seasons never missing a game.
@vinrusso821 dude I'm not dogging on him, I like the guy and the way he plays, don't want to see his career wasted
@@aaronsams8605 the Barkley comparison was still a bad one though. It’s the NFL he has been a lot luckier than most guys
All i got say is Danny Woodhead loved watching him when he played with TB12 . Played with him in Highschool. Great video .
Bro, thank you so much for making this video of McCaffrey. I love the way you told the story spot on. I didn’t know it was that good really until now
His father and Terrell Davis were great to watch playing for the Broncos back in the day
Great video you put together. That transition into "cmc traded" gave me goosebumps as it did when it actually happened 😅 Niners lets get it!
He looks relaxed, flexible, and loose. Adjusts great running, breaking tackles, moving through tacklers, yardage after catches. Glad the 49ers got him. Go Niners!
A better comparison is Roger Craig
Both not huge Running Backs but run with violent intent and keep churning after contact
Also both are/were ELITE pass catchers out of the backfield
No surprise that they're both 1,000/1,000 running backs
Marshall Faulk is also a 1,000/1,000 running back but his running style was way more elusive and less predicated on running through contact
He's not 1000 1000
@@ChadFarthouse-h8r
He has a 1,000 / 1,000 season.
With the Panthers
Marshall Faulk and Roger Craig are absolute studs. Both deserve the HOF
mccaffrey doesn't do that crazy good high step craig used, closer to faulk i think.
@@jowsmith1904
Faulk ran like Barry Sanders with extreme elusiveness
CMC can be elusive but nowhere near that level. He follows blocks well, has good vision, breaks through contact. Never goes down easy
Now that I think about his running style is more like Frank Gore
soul and heart and straight dedication has no height limit he is a total baller think if he was bo jackson size he would be indestructible
I encourage you to continue to make videos ..it seems your back after 2 years of no videos …this content will blow up soon all u need to do is keep doing what your doing
His feet never stop moving. Even on the sideline he is intense. Good for him, keep going.
Found this video because i was curious how many white feature backs have played before him. This is a real good video you put a lot of research into. Got my sub. Keep it up man. Channel deserves to gain some popularity
One..Peyton hillis..he was a featured back for 1 year..after that you need to go back to the 70s
@@chrisz3624 Mike Allstot with the Bucks. John Riggs in the 80s with Washington.
Both were the driving force behind Super Bowl winning offences.
John Riggins was incredible. Check out his highlight reels
@@chrisz3624 Craig James with the Patriots in the mid-'80s, but only briefly. He had one great 1000-yard rushing season and led NE to their first Super Bowl appearance. Injuries shortened his career.
Great review of CMC sir 🤘🏻. In addition to the old school backs you mentioned that compared, I would have to add Thurman Thomas and Kieth Byers; off the charts running intellect, balance and the ability to see the field and of course the versatility Thurmanator and KB possessed.
I dont look at McCaffery as white or black. Sports was one of the few places we didnt even look at race. We were a team. A family. I just admired how McCaffery ran in college foward. I love how he can "cross people up" when he switches the ball into the opposite arm while at the same time cut the other way.
I'm excited to see the first why te Rushing Champ since 1962!! He's got a 250 yard lead with 4 games to go, so it's looking good.
Long time Niner fan, but best CMC origin doc yet! New sub
appreciate it! & welcome to the club
2:12 Still throws me off every time I see him catch as a receiver 😄 So cool!
CMC not getting the Heisman was big time nonsense. But, every cloud has a silver lining. I’ve never heard him complain about the Heisman snub……. But it is clearly the chip on his shoulder that he carries down the field every time he runs with the ball. I followed his career at Stanford, I am so happy to see him as part of this fantastic 49er team.
He’s head and shoulder above the competition. No other running back produces like CMC.
This is my dude,hes always been my dude! The running back was always the most athletic guy on the field, now wr more so. Excellent video, subject, and production.
Larry Csonka , John Riggins ,Thurman Thomas , Roger Craig = Christian McCaffrey 100%. This kid is incredible and has done enough to get in the Hall on first valet
0:54 I know this feeling
I was incredibly athletic as a teenager, I would say gifted.
I was so far beyond what the other guys could do that it made my peers angry and they'd form little hate groups and always try to dog shot me in the gym any chance they could (and they'd repeatedly get humiliated for even trying)
These guys used to make off-handed comments like ''this guy from x school is going to smash you on the weekend when you play against him'' etc
For all my athletic gifts, I was not prepared for the self doubt.
their snarky comments got through to me and I went from hero to zero pretty quick.
Never really recovered from it 👁
CMC looks so undersized as a RB, but runs like a 225 pounds fullback. He proved me Wong when we first got him to the Niners
He is not undersized. 5’11”, 210 lbs.
Adrian Peterson was 6’1” and 215 lbs. so thinner. No one ever said he was too small.
It is a very rare running back to be over 225 lbs.
What's Wong is Wong.
What's White is White.
@@andrewjankowski9650yeah, he looks smaller in pads sometimes than he really is, but he's definitely not small; he's actually pretty jacked.
Barry Sanders was only 5'8", looked small when standing next to his teammates, yet was the greatest running back ever.
@@machtnichtsseimann
If loving u is Wong,
I dont want to be White.
I've been watching him since his first game as a true freshman. By far my favorite collegiate player of all time, and by far my favorite player in the NFL today. I've been a Steelers' fan my whole life, but I'm cheering for the 9ers now. They got my favorite coach, favorite player, a few other players I'm a big fan of like Kittle, Bosa and Juice, and they're the most fun to watch. I was so glad to see him get traded out of that joke of a team down in Carolina. Now he's finally in a system that fits him, with some talent around him so they can't key on him alone, and he's unstoppable.
Very
Smart
Runner😊
Steady Eddie did a good job.
for a smaller channel you do a fkn good job at getting the details across quickly, ty for making this. CMC deserves all the flowers
He may just go down as the best all purpose yard gainer of all times I mean of all times his work ethic his heart speed , vision and IQ.. #1
Brilliant, balanced, review. Well done and we’ll done Christian. And don’t forget mom and dad - must be sooooo proud. The boy is a beast athlete and appears to be just an awesome overall person.
As one OC said “Christian is the only back in the NFL that can run the entire route tree at an elite level.” He’s not too bad at carrying the rock either…
Brother....I really enjoyed this video....and the time you must have taken with vintage footage of Christian as a kid....excelling etc....!
I am an ole' UGA BULLDOG....(got to witness Hershel Walker...run track.....etc...and , of course, the 1980 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!
All this said.....you really have captured....how SPECTACULAR CHRISTIAN HAS BEEN AND...seems to CONTINUE TO BE!! Just Amazing!
Merry Christmas! 2023...Leighton E. Tillman III
He is the best back in the league and I don’t see him slowing up for a while!
This is well done! Thank you!
I used to watch Jimmy Brown run the old Cleveland stadium 🙏
id say he reminds me most of sweetness. he was just so versatile and kinda smaller like cmc too
Did everybody forget his 2019 season?? I feel like there should never have been hate and the stereotypes should've been broken that year. Dude had 1387 rushing yards on 287 carries, 15 TDs with an 84 yard run on the season and averaged 4.8 YPC.. Sounds like a great year right? Well, he also had 116 receptions on 142 targets for 1,005 receiving yards and 4 TDs and get this: he fumbled the ball ONE time and did NOT lose the fumble. Yep. Zero turnovers the whole year and he played in every game and in 93% of ALL of Carolina's offensive snaps lol. One of the most underrated individual performances on a whole season in any sport, ever imo. And yet, he wasn't even really in the MVP conversation, the top 3 MVP contenders that season were Lamar Jackson, Russ and Michael Thomas.
Lamar: 3,127 passing yards, 1,206 rushing yards, 43 total TDs, 6 INTs
Russ: 4,110 passing yards, 342 rushing yards, 34 total TDs, 5 INTs
Thomas: 149 receptions, 1,725 yards, 9 TDs
McCaffery finished the season breaking his OWN record for most receptions by a running back (lol) AND he had the THIRD highest total yards from scrimmage of any player in NFL history and didn't even get *considered* for MVP.
Now, I am not saying Lamar didn't deserve to win MVP with his historic season as well - but it's a travesty to me that CMC wasn't even in the conversation, especially considering Michael Thomas was and granted, he had a historic year as well breaking Marvin Harrison's all time reception record but it's not nearly as impressive as CMCs accolades on the season imho - personally, I would have had CMC second only to Lamar that year. Kinda tired of MVP being the "QB of the year" award but 2019 Lamar def deserved it.
And just throwing this in there, if Jahmyr Gibbs stays healthy he looks like he could be the next one of these Kamara/CMC dual threat type backs. Loving that kid's game.
CMC is extremely well suited in Shanahan's offense because of his versatility. Roger Craig was versatile in Bill Walsh's offense back when with the same result: Defenses just don't know how to cover you. And... AND.. they utilize Deebo's versatility in much the same way. They're rewriting the formula on winning. I'm not even going to get into Purdy, it's laughable what he's doing. A man who is told he won't amount to anything is dangerous, and the 49ers are loaded with them.
Craig also had Rathman in the backfield. Less speed but could power through tackles, run routes, and had great hands. Another swiss army knife player in the $(ers west coast system.
He's like Sweetness in that he never ,ever runs out of bounds and has a sledgehammer straight arm.
C Mac is a beast!! Love his work ethics and dedication. I still can't believe the Panthers let him go... but well, thanks! Go Niners!
Christian doesn't have to prove himself anymore. If anyone's undecided since he joined the 49ers it's their problem. I've been a McCaffrey fan since he played with Carolina. I'm glad he is playing with a Superbowl winning team and I hope he gets his ring.
It amazes me how east coast fans completely ignore west coast football. He set the record for yards from scrimmage in the history of NCAA football, and nobody seems to have heard of him until the NFL. He did not even win the Heisman that year. Especially because he was at Stanford, known for academics, Before him was Toby Gehrhard who had over 1800 yards his senior year and led the NCAA in points, TDs and yards but lost the Heisman to Ingram
one of the best and most popular, glad he got with SF to finish career
Christian McCafferty can pass, run, block and catch at football at the NFL level! He got to be very power to block a charging lineman and not get penalized!😂
This is a very well put-together video... kudos for a nice representation and analysis of how good this guy really is. Hard work, great DNA, incredible natural ability, and heart.
Very well done and informative video
"THAT'S HOW A WHITE MAN RUNS A FOOTBALL!" 😂😂😂

Don't get me started on the current record holder in the Triple Jump.
There will always be another great one but he is fun to watch as he is the guy right now.
Well done! I learned a lot about CMC . Thank you. How did the Niners get so lucky! thats another story.
The thought I was the punter they misspelled my name - this is really funny. He has heart, pride and grew up being under-estimated. I appreciate this video.
Christian McCaffrey is literally 1 in a million. I'm not used to seeing short white guys with speed play football as RB. I've been impressed with him since his Stanford days. We called him (White⚡)🤟🏿 GO 49ERS!!!!!!
I know many. Your 1 in Million is only valid in regards to Talent VS Opportunity. The NFL and NBA have purposely keeping many good White athletes suppressed over the past 20 years. I know, I'm one of them.
Marshall Faulk is a great comp, supremely talented runner, has moves on top of moves, great acceleration, difficult to bring down after first contact, amazing hands, blocks well when needed.
His father was an all-pro NFL player. He's not really breaking any stereotypes. He's actually confirming genetic stereotypes, if you think about it.
not really, the amount of children of stars players more often than not cant cut it, montanas son comes to mind as a good example.
How about The Longs, Bosa, Mathews, Mannings and Let not forget the Watts 3 Brothers playing at the same time....
I am old enough to rmember Sweetness, Gayle Sayers, I was a big fan of those two. Never got to see Sanders run enough. Earl Campbell, Sanders etc. Sanders is the only one who comes close. Christian is the only running back I've seen do it all, shedding tackles, throwing passes?, great blocking, totally unselfish, receiving. He's unique and I wouldn't compare him to anyone who just runs the ball. Besides all that he is tough and will give a hit as good as he gets.
Class act and a great role model
Had some great ones in my day. Mark Van Eaghan, Marv Hubbard, John Riggins, Jim Taylor
Larry Csonka.
How did you forget Mike Alstott
Stereotype shattered 😌👏🏿Go 9ers
Stereotype shattered you should see who holds the world record in the Triple Jump. And talk about Stereotyps...The Liberal Press and Black Lives Matter will never...ever ever ever..mention Jim Thorpe.
Cmc led league in yards and TJ Watt led in sacks... White Boys..Oh yeah!
I was never a Carolina Panthers fan, but I loved watching Christian McCaffrey play. And only after watching this video did I find out that he was the son of one of my favorite Bronco players, Ed. I started following the Broncos when I was about 4, way back in 1971! Sounds like his Dad did a lot of positive things to help Christian's chances in the pros.
He got robbed of the Heisman in college. Most White running backs are in the mold of the Hall of Fame RB John Riggins, that is a big super powerful back with just straight line speed that will hit those holes or just purposefully run over people like Riggins did. People are not used to White running Backs with moves, lateral speed etc. He reminds me most of Marshall Faulk or a poor mans Walter Payton.
riggins was one of a kind.....so bleedin' good.
Riggins, my favorite of all time!
You’re right well said.
Oh yeah Riggins was a beast!
Christian is a monster talent. One thing that was not mentioned is his ability to create space where other running backs simply don’t see it. He has great vision and the ability to get to open space quickly, all over the field. That is a unique talent. When there’s apparently no where to run, he finds the gap, seem in the defense to pick up that extra yard or many yards that go unnoticed by others. As a former running back cut by the Steelers, Christian, I love watching you play. All the best.
Don’t hate on my boy fournette. Dude helped me win my fantasy leagues for a few years. He was a beast. Dude should honestly still be a number 1 for any team imo.🤷♂️
he most definitely WAS lol no hate at all, it’s all love for em
You know who was a Real Dude, Dude? Rocky Marciano Dude! Dude was never beaten....and he thought Gangsters were punks.
Great video 👍 Nailed comparisons to other backs. Only missed one key 🔑 fact! Who was his maternal grandfather? Dave Sime - Olympic sprinter and once “fastest man on earth.” Humans love their stereotypes. Rise above it ☝🏼“As one!” - Gladiator
Many White Boys have not been given opportunities to prove themselves over the past 20 years. His Dad helped him that so many other White kids didn't have but all things considered, CMC is an absolute STUD! Well done Sir! BRAVO
Racism everywhere against Whites....
affirmative action is the worst thing ever. You know who needs to prove themselves and they haven’t for the past 140+ years since Lincoln did what he did…..
I thought unicorns only existed in the NBA and fairy tales. What a great profile. And kudos to his Dad for showing him the way and pushing him down the path.
If he stayed healthy those years o Carolina I would argue he’s the best back every year.
Christian is an was what is commonly known as a “Weapon” in football, he will go down in history as the most underrated running back in league history, yet his stats and records will put him in the same category as Walter Payton, Jim Brown, Barry Sanders. The only issue of race in this equation is he was always considered to be too slow when actually because of both his parents made him train and work to maximize his skill set, he ran track to improve his speed and he dedicated himself to improving his overall speed and cuts! Therefore he is the ultimate weapon in modern football a player at the running back position that can play many other positions. A WEAPON!
Rams thought they were gonna get him lol ❤️💛❤️💛
I did but kyren Williams been ok with us so far
It’s okay, we have Kyren who is actually similar to CMC , just he doesn’t have the speed that CMC has but plays very much similar 😂
He is breaking your personal barriers , thanks for announcing the small corners of your mind.
I’m just still heated 49 fans still haven’t thanked us for giving him to y’all for a bag of peanuts basically.
Oh I know. Panthers absolutely suck. Not watching them anymore, especially with everything going on. Just gonna pull for the 49ners until Panthers get their act together and pull for CMC.
