"McCaffrey scored a rushing and receiving touchdown in the same game for an NFL-record 16th time in his career, breaking his tie with Marshall Faulk. McCaffrey finished his day with 106 rushing yards on 26 carries and caught five passes for 67 more yards. Mac Jones was unstoppable in the first half, completing all 14 of his pass attempts, and finished the game 19 of 24 for 235 yards in a game that the 49ers never really felt threatened in."
"On Jones' performance I though Mac did a hell of a job. Extremely efficient in what he was doing, going against a real tough pass rush. Probably only one negative play in the game, just the fumble there at the end of the second quarter. Hell of a play by Brian Burns who did it. But Mack played really well, took care of the ball, got the ball to the right guys, and made a couple plays with his legs, too."
The 49ers beat the Giants 34-24 in New Jersey, delivering a balanced offensive performance led by Christian McCaffrey and Mac Jones. McCaffrey rushed for 106 yards on 26 carries, caught five passes for 67 yards, and scored both rushing and receiving touchdowns, marking his 16th career game with both scores. Mac Jones completed all 14 first-half pass attempts and finished 19 of 24 for 235 yards. The 49ers improved to 6-3 and remained one loss behind NFC West leaders despite missing captains Fred Warner and Nick Bosa, edge rusher Bryce Huff, and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall Jr., with Brock Purdy inactive.
