The 49ers (60%) pack their perfect record for a cross-country trip to face the Falcons in Week 7.
My 49ers vs. Falcons predictions recognize that this is no normal road game for San Francisco, with a tough schedule spot threatening that undefeated mark.
That angle informs my best NFL picks, starring Bijan Robinson, for Sunday, Oct. 25.
49ers vs Falcons prediction: Falcons moneyline
We’ve seen a significant early market move toward the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7.
The San Francisco 49ers opened as 4.5-point road favorites following their win over Washington on Monday. Early opinions have trimmed as many as two points off that spread, pushing through the key number of 3.
If you read my Week 7 NFL Underdogs column, you know I grabbed Atlanta +3.5 earlier in the week. With the Falcons now trading at +2.5, I see more worth in their outright price rather than taking less than a field goal (underdogs of +2.5 or shorter are 12-13 SU and ATS this season).
On top of injuries stacking up for the 49ers, specifically at receiver, this venture to Georgia is just San Francisco’s second true road game of the season. A good chunk of the Niners’ positive power ratings are produced by those home-friendly results.
This is also an early wake-up call for the 49ers, who take the field at 10 a.m. PT in Atlanta and do so on a short week, after playing on Monday in Week 6. There is also a looming look-ahead for a banged-up roster, with a bye waiting in Week 8.
The Falcons are being downgraded for a sloppy loss to Chicago last weekend, in which Atlanta had three turnovers and less than 20 minutes of possession. Still, the Falcons were threatening a fourth-quarter.

49ers vs Falcons combo
If you like a short underdog, often times the moneyline is worth a wager. Atlanta stays home while the 49ers travel for an early kickoff on a short week.
The chairman of tight ends has scored five touchdowns and sees his role in the passing game spike with the Niners potentially down its top two WRs.
Bijan Robinson is an underrated pass-catching threat and the Falcons need to get the ball in his hands by any means. Projections for Bijan flirt with as many as 40 receiving yards in Week 7.

- Falcons moneyline
- George Kittle touchdown
- Bijan Robinson 25+ receiving yards
TOP PICK
49ers vs Falcons player prop: Bijan Robinson 25+ receiving yards
The Falcons’ path to victory is plowed by running back Bijan Robinson.
Robinson isn’t just a threat to grind out gains on the ground, but also is a catch-and-run weapon in this offense.
Robinson did finish with negative receiving yards on just two catches in the loss to Chicago last Sunday, which is helping slim his yardage total for Week 7 (had 30.5 O/U in Week 6). The game before, however, he was targeted seven times for four grabs and 32 receiving yards.
Robinson is a workhorse for Atlanta and could see an even bigger snap share with fellow RB Brian Robinson dealing with a hamstring injury.
Week 7 projections for Robinson’s receiving output all sit north of 30 yards, with a ceiling of 39. My number comes out to 33+ receiving yards.
COVERS INTEL: Bijan faces a 49ers defense allowing the second most receiving yards to running backs, giving up more than seven receptions on over eight targets per game to the position. They've also allowed the fifth-most YAC.Want more NFL player props? Check out our NFL player prop projections!
