With the first third of the 2025 NFL regular season officially in the books, the San Francisco 49ers sit atop the NFC West with a 4-2 record heading into their Week 7 matchup on Sunday Night Football with the Atlanta Falcons.
Yes, the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams hold the same 4-2 mark, but as the Niners hold head-to-head wins over both, they technically take the top spot. And even going to the second tiebreaker, which is the best record within the division, San Francisco has the edge there as well with a 3-0 record.
