If Penix works out they're setup to run the division for the foreseeable future. The first team to land a quality young QB is going to have a massive competitive advantage in the NFC South.

Yeah the more I think about it, that pick may not have been the blunder it was made out to be.  It's such an important position.  If Cousins gets hurt their season isn't over.  They could trade Cousins in year 2/3 if Penix looks like the real deal.  Penix's age and injury history was the main concern for me vs them taking a QB that early.

My initial reaction was WTF they're insane.  But after the dust settled, it might not be that bad of an idea.  Maybe they didn't pick the right guy, and maybe they should have told Kirk their plans.  But the fundamentals behind the idea are hard to argue with.

If you think there's a potential franchise QB available and you don't have a long-term franchise QB on the roster, you almost have to take him. Kirk Cousins is 35 and coming off a torn Achilles. That's no sure thing in the short-term and almost certainly isn't a long-term solution.

I have a lot of questions about Penix in the NFL. His arm isn't much better than Bryce's. But if it works out they're gonna look brilliant. If it doesn't, it's not like they mortgaged the franchise to get him.

Sorry im coming in late but how do the Falcons look this season? Is Roddy White and Algae Crumpler looking decent in camp so far? I cant stand Matt Ryan, I hope we shut his ass down!

      I’m expecting a breakout season from Ja'tavion Sanders

      By Car123 · Posted

      Not many are talking about this player. He played well as a rookie last year. If he refines his blocking, continues studying film, and keeps working hard, I can see him being the next Greg Olsen. I’m expecting 55 catches, 700 yards, 4 TDs this season.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
