Brock Purdy needs help. Winners and losers from 49ers' loss to Falcons

The San Francisco 49ers suffered their first defeat of the campaign on Sunday, dropping a 29-20 decision to the Atlanta Falcons despite previously holding an eleven-point advantage. San Francisco fell to a six and one record after committing four turnovers, while managing the contest without running back Christian McCaffrey for a significant portion of the opening half due to a thigh injury.

Atlanta improved to three and four behind a defensive effort coordinated by Jeff Ulbrich and led by rookie linebacker Kendal Daniels, who secured both an interception and a fumble recovery during the final period. Kevin Stefanski guided the hosts to victory over his predecessor Raheem Morris, aided by key contributions from safety Jesse Bates III, defender Za'Darius Smith, and multiple tight ends.
