1. Falcons will fall to a tough team on the road

Atlanta has turned things around to some extent as of late following its tough start to the 2019 campaign, having won three of its last five games going into the 15th week of the regular season this weekend. In Week 15, however, the Falcons will have a tough time on the road in a rough playing environment against one of the top squads in the NFC and the NFL in general.

Coming into the game on Sunday evening, Atlanta holds a record of 2-4 away from home this season, although both of its victories occurred in impressive wins in both New Orleans and Carolina in back-to-back weeks earlier this year.

San Francisco, though, is just too talented of a team and holds too much firepower on both sides of the ball for Atlanta to have an opportunity to make that three road victories on the year up to this point in the 2019 campaign.

The 49ers contain a record of 5-1 overall in front of their home fans at Levi’s Stadium in California so far this season and are an impressive 8-1 overall against teams in the NFC, a conference that is stacked with some high-quality teams.
