It’s the family business that 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan inherited from his dad, Super Bowl-winning coach Mike Shanahan. It’s that synchronized ballet of an offensive line firing off the ball in unison, moving left or right, attacking space first and defenders second.

The San Francisco 49ers had one of their best rushing performances of the season on Sunday, but the exclamation point of the evening should not have counted. The Niners drove 60 yards down the field in the fourth quarter against the Falcons when Kyle Shanahan called for a right-side handoff to running back Christian McCaffrey.

San Francisco lost Brendel to a hamstring injury and Green to a toe injury. Typically, hamstrings will be multiple-week injuries, and Brendel was declared out early into the game, so there is a good chance the team will be without him in Week 8.

The San Francisco 49ers have dealt with a barrage of injuries in the first half of the season, but they are finally getting one of their best players back at full health. Star tight end George Kittle has been activated off of injured reserved ahead of the team's Week 7 game against the Atlanta Falcons.
