Pro Football Network: 49ers 27, Falcons 20

Ben Rolfe writes: "The 49ers should be able to breeze past the Falcons, but that simple fact means this could be a game they drop. However, the 49ers’ run game should be too much for Atlanta, who had allowed six straight 100-yard rushing games before stiffening against the Buccaneers and Panthers. The only obvious route to this being an upset is if Jimmy Garoppolo makes costly mistakes."

Teddy Ricketson writes: "Don’t let the Falcons win fool you, they aren’t that good. The best thing for the San Francisco 49ers is that they have a better Cordarelle Patterson on their offense that they practice against every week. There’s no such thing as sure things in the NFL, especially this season, but I’m surprised the spread is only 8.5. The strides the 49ers offense has taken to keep up with its defense makes them a dangerous playoff team. Tight end George Kittle and Samuel should be able to deliver a win to the bay and a cover to bettors."

Fansided: 49ers 27, Falcons 21

Peter Panacy writes: "Considering the 49ers are fully aware of how important their final four-game stretch is, plus the fact they have to travel on a short week to face the Tennessee Titans on Thursday Night Football in Week 16, it’s imperative Shanahan and Co. go all-out for a victory on Sunday. Atlanta might cover, but let’s give the Niners a 27-21 victory."
