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!

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
