In a year where there hasn't been much to celebrate for the Carolina Panthers, superstar running back Christian McCaffrey has etched his name in the record books. McCaffrey joined former Rams' Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk and 49ers star Roger Craig as the only players in NFL history to record 1,000 yards rushing and receiving in the same season.

The head coach and quarterback situations might be up in the air in Carolina, but McCaffrey has proven he is in a league of his own as it pertains to running backs.
