When to watch the Atlanta Falcons vs. San Francisco 49ers
- Sunday, Oct. 19, at 8:20 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. PT).
Where to watch
- The Falcons-49ers game will be broadcast nationally on NBC and streamed on Peacock.
The Atlanta Falcons are starting to look frisky. They’ve won their last two games to get to 3-2 on the year, with second-year quarterback Michael Penix Jr. looking more comfortable with each passing week and Bijan Robinson looking like one of the best running backs in the league. The Falcons face a 49ers team tonight that’s 4-2 but has been beset with injury, the latest blow coming last week when the leader of their defense, Fred Warner, was lost for the season to a gruesome ankle injury.
The Falcons-Niners Sunday Night Football game starts tonight at 8:20 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. PT). The game is available to watch nationally on NBC or stream on Peacock.
Tonight’s Sunday Night Football game features two of the most dynamic running backs in the NFL: Bijan Robinson of the Falcons and Christian McCaffrey of the 49ers.
