The Atlanta Falcons will take a trip out west to take on the San Francisco 49ers. San Francisco needs this win to stay in the playoff picture. They are currently the No. 6 seed in the NFC and are a game up on the Washington Football Team. These are games the 49ers need to win, but can they get the job done.

Falcons vs. 49ers Prediction and Pick

Earlier this week, Iain MacMillan was backing the San Francisco 49ers.

“The 49ers are seventh in yards per play this season and 12th in opponent yards per play, which firmly puts them in the top third of teams in the NFL. That spells trouble for a Falcons team that ranks in the bottom 10 in both of those categories. Look for the 49ers defensive line to have a field day against a Falcons offensive line that has struggled all season. The 49ers rank sixth in sack percentage, recording a sack on 7.3% of their opponent drop backs. ...I refuse to bet on the Falcons when they play a superior opponent, and that's exactly what the 49ers are.” 

The Falcons are in the bottom third in a majority of categories, on both offense and defense. They would need the 49ers to have one of their worst games of the year to lost at home. I'll go with the Niners big.

Pick: 49ers -9 (-110)
