McCaffrey ran for 129 yards and scored two touchdowns on the ground. He also had seven catches for 72 yards. He got the scoring started in the second quarter when he helped put San Francisco on top 7-3. He then put the dagger into the hearts of Falcons fans when he was pulled and pushed into the end zone with 2:26 left in the game.
It was that kind of frustrating night for the Falcons.
Michael Penix Jr. was 21-of-38 for 241 yards and a touchdown. He was sacked twice and lost a fumble. But after two big wins against the Washington Commanders and Buffalo Bills, the Falcons’ offense was expected to have a little more firepower than what they showed against a depleted 49ers defense.
Atlanta went on nine drives during the night and were only able to attain 19 first downs. The team was 5-for-11 on third downs and 0-for-2 on fourth down conversion attempts.
San Francisco had 324 yards of total offense against Atlanta’s 292.
The 49ers were able to hold running back Bijan Robinson to 40 rushing yards on 14 carries. He had six catches for 52 yards and a touchdown. San Francisco quarterback Mac Jones was in for Brock Purdy. He had 152 passing yards and an interception.
Despite the injuries that have affected San Francisco since Week 1, the 49ers moved to 5-2 with the win. Atlanta fell to 3-3.

To make matters more difficult, Montreal was hit with a <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/montreal-weather-blowing-snow-warning" target="_blank">blowing snow advisory</a> from <a href="https://weather.gc.ca/en/location/index.html?coords=45.529,-73.562" target="_blank">Environment Canada</a> on Monday morning.</p><p>While the worst of the extreme weather may be over, towering snowbanks and clogged streets could remain a common sight for the next week or so. On Monday afternoon, the City of Montreal addressed the situation in a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mtlville/posts/pfbid02JpkTEccVgkrnH2N1wabybfNyygkUH6c5BVBPBFgn1hq3y5McckL4yPvGq9Mz9GXcl" target="_blank">social media statement</a>.</p><p>"We have just gone through an unprecedented storm, with nearly 74 cm of snow accumulated in record time," the city wrote before offering a timeline for snow clearing. "Montreal is buried, and it will take at least eight days before the situation returns to normal."</p><p>Officials are reminding residents that parking restrictions remain in effect and must be respected to avoid slowing down snow removal crews. The city also confirmed that all garbage, recycling, and compost collections are cancelled this week.</p><p>"We thank you for your patience and understanding," the statement continued. "Behind every shovel, every snowplow, there is a person working hard. In the meantime, let's be there for each other — help a neighbour, push a stuck vehicle, give a smile to the teams on the ground."</p><p>Montreal mayor Valérie Plante later issued a statement of her own, reminding citizens that Montreal hasn't received a snowfall this significant since the 1950s. </p><p>"Travelling will not be easy this week, but the situation should improve gradually," she wrote in French. "I'm aware that this is not easy for a lot of people. I want to reassure you: We are doing everything in our power to deal with this exceptional situation."</p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DGLt5OHvek5/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link" data-instgrm-version="4" style="background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);">
