If you want to see how valuable fullback Kyle Juszczyk and tight end George Kittle are for this San Francisco 49ers, you need only look at running back Matt Breida's 83-yard run to the end zone on the offense's first snap against the Cleveland Browns on Monday night. NFL Network analyst Brian Baldinger, who is always entertaining with his film breakdowns, took an in-depth look at Breida's score.


The play is yet another example of head coach Kyle Shanahan drawing something up to misdirect the opposing defense, which is becoming commonplace while watching the 49ers offense. The difference this season is Shanahan now has more talent to execute his plays.

The bad news is that Juszczyk might miss some time with a leg injury suffered in the third quarter of Monday night's dominant 31-3 victory over the visiting Browns. The fullback will be evaluated on Tuesday to determine the severity of the injury.

San Francisco currently ranks first in the NFL in rushing yards, averaging exactly 200 yards per game and 5.2 yards per attempt. Breida leads the team in rushing with 340 yards on 52 attempts with a rushing touchdown.


Baldinger also breaks down Kittle's first rushing attempt of the season.


H/t to Patrick Tulini for the find.
