Scott Hanson joins Willard and Dibs to preview Week 1 — and one of the biggest questions hanging over the 49ers season: what happens to Christian McCaffrey after an absolutely massive workload last year? Scott lays out the history that should worry 49ers fans — running backs who rack up that many touches almost always either fall off statistically, can’t sustain the workload, or get hurt the following season. But he also makes the case for why McCaffrey might be the exception, pointing to his elite training regimen, diet, and recovery habits as reasons he could defy the trend that’s ended so many other backs’ primes. Scott doesn’t hedge on it either — he says if you want to bet against McCaffrey, do it with your own money. Along the way, Scott also breaks down the Rams-49ers body clock debate ahead of their game in Australia, what Red Zone prep looks like heading into Week 1, and how he just set a fantasy football cameo record that puts him in the same company as a certain rock star and a certain “Tiger King” star.
