Following a 5-0 start, the Atlanta Falcons have dropped two of their last three games.

But try not to blame running back Devonta Freeman. The second-year performer has been an enormous part of coordinator Kyle Shanahan’s offense. The former Florida State Seminole now leads the NFL in rushing yards (709) and total yards from scrimmage (1,062) as well as total touchdowns (10).

Perhaps even more noteworthy is that the 2014 fourth-round pick has 192 yards from scrimmage in eight games this season and has not committed a turnover – fumbling just once.

Freeman and the suddenly-suspect Falcons head to San Francisco this week as they look to get back on the winning track.
