On a positive note, Cam looks GREAT

We have been robbed of a year and a half of our the best player in our franchise history. Cam showed today that with just 10 days to learn just part of the scheme that he's still a good QB. This fact alone should result in Rhule being fired. It's not even the fact that he cut him it's the fact that his two handpicked choices to replace Cam where disasters.

For someone who just got on this team 10 days ago, looks like the best QB we’ve had since Cam Newton

 

crisp passes

zip on a dime

still jukes

smart about protecting his body and going down

 

it sucks we lost winnable games like NYG, MIN as I do think Cam would have played a big factor in changing the outcome

Yeah, I thought he looked pretty good. Unfortunately, this was one of the "easier" games left on the schedule. So, losing kind of took the wind out of our sails.

    • Yeah, banking on his hands, vertical, height etc. Thing is we have a processor with an average arm, not a gunslinger so he might not even get those 50/50's to even show what he can do. XL has some of the same BY issues, if he doesn't get some 50/50 throws his way he's going to be stuck catching a lot of expected shallow crossers aka dinks and dunks
    • Really like him. He will be great for Bryce. I hope he doesn't get a lot of push off calls as he did that on some of those catches. 
    • Everyone talks about how important it is to draft a QB in round 1 and have the "5th year option" I haven't seen it play out the well over the past several years. The good/great QB' aren't playing the first 5 years under their original deal.  After year 3 or 4 they are getting mammoth extensions. Having Penix take over in year 3 may actually save the Falcons some money over the next 5 seasons. I doubt they'd give him an extension after his first year as a starter if he took over the starting position after the guaranteed portion of Kurt Cousins new deal ends in 2025.   In terms of playing time, Penix 3 years as a starter would be ending with the 5th year of his rookie deal (assuming his option was picked up). The money Penix would be making in year 5 of a rookie contract would be significantly less than the upper echelon 5 year starters are making now.
