The 49ers’ first loss of the season comes after a 29-20 defeat to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7. Despite outgaining Atlanta by more than 100 yards, San Francisco’s seven costly penalties—including an encroachment that gave the Falcons a field‑goal before halftime—and a string of self‑inflicted errors (holding, pass interference, offsides, a false start by Brandin Cooks) stalled crucial stops.
