SAN FRANCISCO – The Falcons’ rushing attack was stuffed by the 49ers in the 31-13 loss on Sunday.
Running back Cordarrelle Patterson was targeted and held to 18 yards on 11 carries. The Falcons finished with 62 yards.
“Yeah, they did a nice job,” Falcons coach Arthur Smith said. “They made a commitment. We’d been running the ball pretty well. They bowed their neck, thought it was a difference in the game. They ran it, we didn’t.”
