Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Bijan Robinson (Falcons) vs Dre Greenlaw (49ers) - winner: Bijan Robinson, 6.1 yds a carry - consistent push behind him.
  • Drake London (Falcons) vs Deommodore Lenoir (49ers) - winner: Drake London, open on 64% of routes for 7.2/9.6, 57 yds a game - a matchup to attack.
In the Trenches
  • Don't expect much heat from the Falcons — a 50% win rate yields only 5.3 sacks and 27.1 pressures a game, Jalon Walker (2.9 sacks, 7.7 pressures a game) leading the way.
  • The Falcons' line should hold up: the 49ers win just 50% of their reps, mustering 4.0 sacks and 18.2 pressures a game (Nick Bosa (1.8 sacks, 4.5 pressures a game) the one to watch).
Through the Air
  • Drake London headlines the Falcons' receiving corps — 7.2 catches for 57 yds a game on 64% separation.
  • Mike Evans headlines the 49ers' receiving corps — 5.3 catches for 49 yds a game on 49% separation.
  • Receivers won't find much room against Clark Phillips III (Falcons): 38% separation allowed with 0.3 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • The Falcons hand it to Bijan Robinson early and often, 17 carries for 103 yds a game at 6.1 a carry, doing his damage to the right side and keeping the sticks moving.
  • Christian McCaffrey carries the load for the 49ers, 16 carries for 54 yds a game at 3.4 a carry, with the holes opening off right tackle.
