The San Francisco 49ers are aiming for a bigger prize on Sunday: The Vince Lombardi Trophy.

McCaffrey led the NFL with 1,459 rushing yards and scored 14 TDs on the ground.
He also caught 67 passes for 564 yards and 7 touchdowns.
McCaffrey came to San Francisco in 2022 from Carolina. That is lining up as one of the most lopsided trades in NFL history.
