short answer: no 

longer answer: i don't think anyone will hit that mark again.

Saquon is already well over 500 yards in both categories, why not?

I think all it would take is one more huge rushing game  of 180+ yards , and one ridiculous receiving game of 150+ yards, then hed have a shot.

Also the entry post was made assuming all three of them stay healthy, hopefully.

So I was reviewing some stats recently since we're around the half way mark and CMC is stastically our best skill position player on offense.

I saw that McCaffrey has 579 rushing yards / 439 receiving yards at only 9 games played he's on a blistering pace and got me to thinking about him getting close to 1000 in each catagory.

Mind you this has only been done a grand total of TWO times in NFL history (Roger Craig : 1985 , Marshall Faulk : 1999 ). That would be an incredible honor but I'm thinking he's not going to have enough receiving yards. I could see him getting like 1100 rushing and 700 receiving.  Unless he pops off some huge receiving plays late in the season. I think him getting to 1000 rushing shouldnt be a problem though.

I also reviewed the stats of every other back in the top 20 in rushing yards currently and the only other two players anywhere near CMC are Alvin Kamara (546 / 473 ) and Saquon Barkley ( 586 , 530 ). Isn't it odd how close the stats are for Kamara, Barkley , and CMC are but CMC isn't anywhere near as sensationalized or gushed over as the other two RBs are?

So you think any of these 3 will get to that mythical 1000/1000 this season? In general do you think CMC will get to it eventually but not this year? 

Just thought this might be an interesting mid-season topic. 

Heres a CMC 2018 highlight : 

 

Also another general question, what is the final stat line you would predict for him? Id say 1100 and 700 

 

He has the ability. But that would require tons of opportunities. Probably more than he will get, especially once DJ and Curtis develop more. Barring injuries in future years to those two, it may need to happen this year or not at all.

Here's a bold prediction: tommorow , November 18, 2018, Christian McCaffrey will break the single game record for yards from scrimmage in regulation (currently 330 yards). Perfect storm of a fast field, a team that's quit, and an offense hungry to get the bad taste of a blowout out of their mouths.

He needs about 60 rushing yds each of the remaining 7 games I wouldn't call that impossible as he has 64 yds/game this far.

Don’t care...he is awesome

The rushing isn't really a problem hes at well over 500 with 7 games to go thats plenty of time to hit the 1000 mark.

His receiving yards are low though and kinda unreliable , he gets his 4-6 catches a game usually but they are normally dump offs around the line of scrimmage that dont have much of a chance to turn into big gainers. The problem here is Cam very rarely targets McCaffrey well down the field. And Norv rarely has him running long routes.

i think as Saquon develops, they'll use him more as a traditional feature back and have the majority of his touches be carries. his numbers are a little skewed from some huge gainers (including one against us on a trick play) that are fairly unreliable production. I just don't think anyone's gameplan in the NFL is going to be to get their HB around 100 catches, which is what they'd probably need considering about 10 yards per catch is around the max you can expect for a full season from a player that catches the ball in the backfield.
