Christian McCaffrey is on pace to break the Carolina Panthers single-season record for total yards from scrimmage. Through nine games CMC has churned out 1,018 yards (579 rushing, 439 receiving) which averages out to 113.1 yards per contest. If he can keep this pace over a full 16-game season, McCaffrey will produce 1,810 yards from scrimmage which would shatter the Panthers record. Per Football Reference, here are the team’s all-time leaders:
Rank | Player | Year | Yards |
---|---|---|---|
Rank | Player | Year | Yards |
1 | DeAngelo Williams | 2008 | 1,636 |
2 | Stephen Davis | 2003 | 1,603 |
3 | Steve Smith | 2005 | 1,588 |
4 | Steve Smith | 2008 | 1,461 |
5 | Steve Smith | 2011 | 1,450 |
By exceeding 1,800 yards, McCaffrey wouldn’t only break the Panthers’ single season record, he’d absolutely crush it.
