What happened: Michael Penix Jr. and the Atlanta Falcons offense stalled on a quick possession before the punting unit shanked the ensuing kick, per Vic Tafur. The sequence occurred with Atlanta holding a 26-20 advantage over the San Francisco 49ers with the game in progress.

Why it matters: The miscue surrenders field position as Atlanta attempts to protect its narrow cushion. Penix has remained the Falcons' answer at quarterback, putting the focus on whether the offense can sustain drives to keep the defense off the field.

What to watch: San Francisco takes over on offense looking to cut into the 26-20 deficit as play continues.
