Candlestick Chronicles: Sizing up the Atlanta Falcons

The 49ers’ Week 15 showdown with the Atlanta Falcons feels somewhat blasé between San Francisco’s three-game stretch vs. the Packers, Ravens and Saints, and their season-ending NFC West gauntlet against the Rams and Seahawks. It’s still crucial in the NFC playoff race though and the 49ers aren’t in a spot where they can take a team lightly.

Chris Biderman of the Sacramento Bee and Kyle Madson take a look at the 49ers and Falcons matchup, and discuss why San Francisco should roll, but they also look at some areas they may struggle. Injuries will play a big role Sunday with five defensive starters possibly out for the 49ers. Chris and Kyle look at those injuries and how San Francisco can overcome them.
