The 49ers, with an injury-ravaged defense, should pick it up offensively to not only win at Atlanta but get in gear for the following week’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

This isn’t a greater priority because the Falcons’ passing attack ranks 30th, led by rookie Drake London and hamstring-hindered Kyle Pitts .This is the game George Kittle goes big . This is the game Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel or both eclipse 100 yards. This is the game Jauan Jennings gets the ball in his hands more, as Garoppolo suggested after last game.

Those ends, including Samson Ebukam and Drake Jackson, must stay on task and not allow Mariota to bounce outside. Mariota was sacked five times in last Sunday’s loss to the Bucs, and he ranks just 30th in completing 57 percent of his passes.
