Is there an under-appreciation for Christian McCaffrey at the national level this season? Possibly, but don’t count NFL Network’s Omar Ruiz among those on the list. Some of the latest from KNBR as the #49ers get ready to welcome the #Rams to Levi’s Stadium this Sunday

Ahead of each #49ers matchup this season, we'll present our most important questions on KNBR
Week 1 @ SEA
1. Can CMC play, and, if so, how effectively?
2. Who wins the rushing battle?
3. Can Saleh make Darnold uncomfortable?
4. How much do the rookies play?
We'll revisit at 10 a.m. on Monday

Charvarius Ward opened up about trying to play through tragedy last season and his frustrations from even before then about not getting a new contract. He now begins a new chapter in Indy and will see the 49ers Week 16 on MNF.

I’ve always loved this Dr. J quote: “Being a professional is doing the things you love to do, on the days you don't feel like doing them.”
