Undermanned but unflappable, San Francisco edged the Rams 26-23 as Mac Jones thrived with a patchwork receiving corps. Bourne logged 10 receptions for 142 yards, Jones threw for 342 yards and 2 TDs with no picks, and the defense closed it out with a late stand. Purdy is week-to-week, but Jones's showing keeps fantasy options alive behind SF's depth.

Divine Deablo has become the Falcons' middle anchor, patrolling the field with rare range and a knack for tackling. Through four games he’s started nearly every snap, racked up 18 tackles with 0.5 sacks, a TFL, a fumble recovery, and three passes defended, transforming Atlanta’s defense into a disruptive unit.

Coaches and teammates credit his length and speed for shrinking throwing windows and closing space on check-downs, helping a defense that sits near the top in total and pass defense. With the bye week approaching, Deablo’s evolution gives fantasy managers a clear linchpin in Atlanta’s reshaped scheme.

Rams return home for a high-stakes TNF showdown with the 49ers, both sitting at 3-1. The pick leans Rams 24-15, buoyed by healthier key positions and a coaching edge as McVay faces Shanahan. San Francisco still fields playmakers like Fred Warner and Christian McCaffrey, but injuries to Purdy, Bosa and Kittle, plus thin WR depth, temper their ceiling.

SF can still swing the outcome through scheming and depth, yet Los Angeles benefits from a fresher roster and improved defensive coordination in Chris Shula. If the Rams execute, they extend momentum into Week 6; if Shanahan outplays, SF keeps their control despite the attrition.

In the Thursday clash between the Los Angeles Rams and the San Francisco 49ers, Fred Warner dominates the narrative. Stafford calls him elite, a linebacker with run-and-pass prowess, intelligence, and blitz flair who commands the 49ers’ defense. LaFleur hails Warner as the best in the business across all phases, a relentless presence who never leaves the paint and constantly disrupts plays. Adams praises his middle-field range and zone awareness, while Nacua notes Warner’s wingspan and space-covering instincts. The chatter frames Warner as a game-defining factor that will shape fantasy and betting decisions.

Fantasy managers should watch how Warner’s multi-faceted impact translates to tackles, disruption, and turnover potential in a rivalry game that often hinges on his placement and timing. His ability to influence both run support and pass coverage makes him a high-floor, high-ceiling option, even in a matchup that emphasizes Rams weapons. The conversation also underscores how Warner’s impact can tilt projections for both defenses and red-zone dynamics.
