Do you still believe in Michael Penix Jr? Type ‘Y’ for Yes or ‘N’ for No
Give Penix a shot with better coaching for sure.
no He's going to get hurt again
Y
No @ Pickens. Who wants to pay (handsomely) for a headache?
Yes
As much as I agree that we lack WR talent Moose I am very heavy on filling our other holes this year. I think we should let offense run through Bijan, Pitts and Drake + a FA WR this year. We should instead fill our linemen and secondary issues and then trade up with the collapsing Cleveland Browns who likely get first pick next year, then we can trade up and select Jeremiah Smith in 2027 who's closest comparison is Julio Jones. I think Jeremiah and Drake would be lethal for the 4-5 years we could have them together and would remind people of the Julio and Roddy White or Julio and Sanu days. I'd love to know your thoughts though.
He won’t be back that soon. If he is, package him in a trade to get some help. The previous administration missed on drafting him and time move on
I think FA WR and Draft WR would be good. What about Nick Nash for next year?
Cause honestly, if Malik gets in there its overwit for Penix. 😅
Trust me it happens I've done it before 😂
And worse case scenario he always will have a job as a sportscaster on NBC 😅 or whatever channel
Gotta fix that O-line to protect Penix as well.
Chris Bell from Louisville is the WR i like too
Off topic, but what about Tampa hiring Zac Robinson, lol gotta sweep them in 26. Be terrible after Mayfield comments plus that hire to split or lose out.
No
N bc he has a lot of leg injuries
Y
MICHAEL PENIX IS MY #1 QB I HAVE FULL FAITH HE WILL BOUNCE BACK. KIRK OLD ASS NEED TO GO HOME. LOOKING LIKE A STATUE IN THE POCKET. ALL THE PENIX HATERS KEEP THAT SAME ENERGY AFTER WEEK 1 W
No George Pickens. Falcons don’t need that drama on top of QB decision.
Facts
I dont think this is news tho. We already knew he was scheduled to be ready by august if no setbacks.
The issue is he wouldn't be able to go through the offseason program with this new system. Now if you said he'd be a full participant by training camp then that's some good news.
Moose listen..Penix DOES NOT fit Stefanski play style..I don't see him being our Day 1 starter.. Stefanski has to get this right or else the Falcons fan base will tear him up! I say get Mac Jones or Malik Willis
N – Nothing with Penix is GOOD news – cut him now and get a QB
If healthy yes without a doubt. 😊
STOP WITH THE IF M.P.J. IS READY TO START B.S.!! There is a HUGE difference between say you'll be ready to keep you job. As opposed to being ready!!! START CUZZZ NEXT YEAR!
RISE THE F*CK UP!
It’s so funny how high we were on MPJ and then he struggles a bit and all of a sudden he’s almost an afterthought. Injury wise I can see the issue with believing in him. Anything outside of that I just don’t understand from a football standpoint why you give up on a guy who can spin the football like that. Look at Caleb Williams and his first season to now. COACHING AND PLAYCALLING. I saw Kirk throw away a season that MPJ saved but his defense gave up on him. Literally if you stop the commanders in the 4th and beat the panthers (which he also gave us a lead) Morris and Terry still employed!! If you don’t lose to the Jets because of special teams Morris still employed! If he could find a kicker he would still be employed! This isn’t a qb issue yet it’s a coaching issue. With everything that has went wrong we still have went 8-9 back to back. Still have been 2 plays away from the playoffs. We let a Lombardi slip away this year. Imagine a healthy Bijan and Drake in the playoffs! Now I have to depend on a coach who came from a similar situation! Maybe the browns just a crazy house so I’ll give him a chance we just want to win! The time is now though we have some all time talent on this team!!!
I think a tandem of MPJ, Bejan, London, and Pickens would be a fearsome foursome
No he needs more deployment next two years
No, to many injuries and his issues playing under center. This new offense is ALL ABOUT playing under center.
2 receivers
Yes
He isn't the one, trust me. Penix doesnt have what it takes between the ears.
Penix is done💯 Too many knee injuries. He won’t get under center play action is a no go💯
MPJ needs a ton of work to be a great, or even good QB. He won't have time on the practice field to get it done.
They need to fix penix mechanics he sales passes when his footwork is off they need a QB coach that can fix it he reads defensive schemes well and needs to play a pro style offense none of that pistol crap he can develop into a franchise quarterback
Lets talk about how everyone was wrong about Kevin calling plays, saying himself that Rees will be. Wtf.
Cousins interviewed with the flagship radio station m.Inn doubt that he would do so-if he was not returning.
Facts#11
Crazy the flip flop 🩴 we get from moose haha. I’ll stay silent. Good show
If they are getting rid of the WR's that did nothing last season, I say 2, if they keeping all of them then just one. They drafted Nash, kept him on the practice squad and now he's with Washington. So they need to draft the best quality player with that they can with their picks.
Penix will shine with the right coaching
Y – he needs a good system & great QB Coach
The first game of the 2026 season is September 10th so that estimate is pretty accurate.
that was the worst acting ive ever seen. i watched it one time and thought something didnt seem right
He's not the answer. I don't see how any coach would feel comfortable with a guy who gets lost for the season almost every year. Am I the only one that sees this? I don't care if he's Joe Fucking Montana when he's healthy (which he's not). If he gets hurt every year and misses the rest of the year (including the postseason) it doesn't matter.
We had Ray Ray as the slot until they cut him. The top 3 was ok
Y
Unless the new coaches can help Penix become a mobile QB, don't think Penix is the answer….especially with his injury history. We need a versatile QB, but of course that's an injury risk, also. 😯
Keep Algeier so Robinson doesnt get over worked, let Pitts and or Mooney walk, grab a solid 2 Wr, let Cousins start Penix get up to speed after the injury you paid him to play qiarterback for 4 years. Y He could be great or just another what if I have hope dudes a tough MF
