San Francisco 49ers vs. Atlanta Falcons Match Details

Fixture: San Francisco 49ers @ Atlanta Falcons

Date & Time: Sunday, October 16, 1:00 p.m. EDT

Venue: Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, Georgia

NFL Player Prop #1: Drake London Over 52.5 Receiving Yards (-115)

Drake London's production has slowed down in the last two weeks, but his targets have remained consistent throughout the season. He averages 7.8 targets but just 4.4 receptions on the year, a number that could definitely increase. Quarterback Marcus Mariota can be erratic at times, but London remains his favorite target.

The rookie wideout does still averages 53.2 receiving yards, and last week, the Niners allowed 244 passing yards. San Francisco has also let an opposing receiver surpass 52 receiving yards in four of their five games this year, so expect London to get back on track today.

NFL Player Prop #2: Jimmy Garoppolo Over 228.5 Passing Yards (-113)

Jimmy Garoppolo has filled in nicely for the injured Trey Lance, and in the last two weeks, he's totaled 492 passing yards. Today, he'll be up against an Atlanta defense that gives up an average of 278.2 passing yards per game.

The Falcons' inability to put pressure on opposing QBs is the main reason their pass defense has suffered, and they'll likely struggle to get past San Francisco's offensive line once again.

Garoppolo also has all of his weapons available for today's contest, and last year he put up 235 yards in this matchup in a blowout 31-13 win. In that game, he only attempted 23 passes as his team had a healthy lead down the stretch. He's thrown 27 or more passes in each of his past three contests now, so expect him to have a great opportunity to throw for a lot of yards in this one.

Expect Garoppolo to reach 229 passing yards, as the Falcons have allowed a lot more than that total on average, and because he's put up better numbers on much better defenses this season.
