NFL Week 9, 2019: 20 Bold predictions to consider
By Dan Parzych
16. McCaffrey finishes with 200+ yards from scrimmage
Most weeks, Christian McCaffrey finishing with 200+ yards from scrimmage seems like an overused prediction, but also the Carolina Panthers star is just that great of a running back, and a serious threat each time the football is in his hands.
From his ability to find openings in the ground game to proving he can turn the simplest pass into a long gain, one can only imagine where this Panthers team would be without McCaffrey in the backfield.
With that being said, McCaffrey and his teammates received a major wake-up call last weekend during their 51-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers after previously looking like one of the hottest teams in the NFC thanks to a four-game winning streak.
Hosting the Tennessee Titans will certainly put the Panthers in great position to bounce back, and if Carolina wants to be in the best position to win, chances are McCaffrey will need another strong outing on offense, whether it’s on the ground or through the air.
Believe it or not, McCaffrey already has two games under his belt consisting of 200+ yards from scrimmage, if the running back were to earn the hat trick in Week 9, no one would be surprised at all.
