They're definitely going to IR him as the script has really changed over the last few weeks with his injury.
We'll be fine. Mason will handle the load and Taylor is good as well. Loved what I saw from him when he was with GB and there's a reason we signed him so early in free agency. Brock is also a better QB and doesn't need to rely on CMC so much.

Bunny privilege here. He's just hurt right now... plain and simple. We hope he heals fast.

At this point it was a terrible idea to get rid of Breida.
Why? He's still a FA
Good question.

Why do you think he has to wait until dec to be 100%?

go get the Jet to take on some of those 3rd down duties. He can catch the ball and pass-block his ass off. Same with Hunt.
I'd take both those guys over Breida.

McKinnon is available? I'm alot lower on him baser on that interview with Deebo a few years back.
Either would be fantastic additions however and have been more productive recently.

Depth chart wise, niners have Mason, Guerendo, Taylor - I think they have someone on the PS that looks pretty solid as well. I think they are good for now.

Just make the playoffs.

But they didn't and he even fumbled (while Kittle was jawing with the Cowboy linebacker). 2,770 touches over the past ten years going back to his college days. Kyle is weird. He needs to trust his bench players more.

Isaac Guerendo can as well. This scenario is exactly why I thought he'd be a perfect fit for us. A perfect compliment to Mason in case CMC went down.
Now we have to hope k**e actually rotate these guys so we don't run Mason's dick into the dirt as well.
