San Francisco 49ers vs Atlanta Falcons: Pick
Cordarelle Patterson was the star player for the Falcons in the first three games of the season. Due to a knee injury, he's out for at least three more weeks.
Marcus Mariota, the team's quarterback, has not really produced the numbers so far. In two games, he has recorded over 200+ passing yards. Overall, in five games, he has less than 800 passing yards. With the running back not in the lineup, Mariota has to come up with the goods.
Pick: Marcus Mariota Over 198.5 Passing Yards (-115)
San Francisco 49ers vs Atlanta Falcons: Prediction
Although the San Francisco 49ers has been more dominant this season, the Falcons could give them a tough time at home.
Their last meeting saw a one-sided victory for the 49ers (31-13), something Atlanta will be mindful of. It should be a tough and close fight between the two teams.
Prediction: Falcons Total Team Points Over 20.5 (+105)
