With Brock Purdy sidelined due to a right shoulder injury, the 49ers needed their skill position players to step up against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

That didn't happen, for the most part.

Ahead of the 49ers' blowout 38-10 loss to the Packers at Lambeau Field, NBC Sports Bay Area asked the Faithful who the most important offensive player would be in the game.

Forty-seven percent of voters picked Christian McCaffrey, but the star running back managed just 68 all-purpose yards (31 rushing yards on 11 carries and 37 receiving yards on three receptions) and lost a fumble late in the game.
