The 49ers (5-2) made a strong stand at home against an emerging Atlanta squad fresh off a big win over the Bills. The win moves San Francisco into a tie with the Rams for first in the NFC West while the Falcons (3-3) slid to third in the NFC South.
Given the talent in each backfield, the uber-dynamic running backs were the focus of this primetime contest. McCaffrey outplayed Robinson in this round, but both did plenty to add to their exceptional numbers. The Falcons star entered Week 7 third in rushing yards (484) and second among running backs in receiving (338), while his Niners counterpart ranked 20th in rushing (336) and came in (and left) as the No. 1 receiving back (444).
