  1. I feel bad for Penix. The way Stefanski did Shedeur Sanders, he's probably upset to have another young black QB to coach. Praying for Penix! 😩🙏🏿 Atlanta has the largest black fan base in the league and Arthur Blank hired this guy. Total tone deaf move.

  2. Not to crash the party but…..should we be worried that the Defense gave up 500 yards to Bryce Young and got torched when they were selling out blitzing constantly? I hope they can get better at the run also! We need a run stuffer up the middle!!

  3. He is the right choice for the Falcons for many reasons not the least of which is that he will make Cousins the starter. The Falcons cost themselves two division titles by benching Kirk and Kevin will not make the same mistake.

  4. The smartest thing they could do is run back Kirk, who is still a Falcon. The team has been better with Kirk under center than Penix. He knows the offense and the coach well. There's no learning curve with the offense or the teammates. Make him the starter for this season until they start losing then hopefully Penix will be RTG.

  5. Really? Ok For the benefit of the recording. Another Other 5 years waisted and Just before to get another Coach to keep the same track as this team has followed for sooo many years.
