>“It’s a combination of a lot,” McCaffrey said. “I think it’s a mindset, it’s having extremely good instincts, vision and it’s comfort in the offense too. You watch him, he’s good at not just taking big hits but I think when you watch him, he knows when to deliver big hits too and be the hammer, not the nail.
>“He was such a great back for so long because of that. He had all of the intangibles but the instincts and the things that are hard to teach, he had all of those things.”
Game recognizes game! Love it.
It’s great seeing CM give love to Frank! My first Niners jersey was number 21!
Damn… this would have been cool to know before he got traded… could have rocked #21. I think he’s probably the only one worthy.
