The Niners' running game got back on track against Atlanta, but the Texans have one of the top run defenses in the NFL.
After gaining 119 yards on the ground in their season-opening win over the Seattle Seahawks, the San Francisco 49ers saw their running game go stagnant over the next five weeks, as they posted an abysmal 74.8 rushing yards per game over that stretch, averaging just 3 yards per carry.
Truth be told, even that Week 1 performance wasn't all that impressive, as the Niners needed 36 attempts to get those 119 yards, which averages out to roughly 3.
