Penix is looking strong. He's had a ton of drops today too. Not looking like a rookie only playing a few games.

He's one of the oldest rookies in NFL history so I'd hope he looks ready. It's hard to gauge how good someone is when they are playing our defense.

And some fans actually want to draft a QB with our first pick lmfao.

This draft? No way!  The guy on the other side of the ball is showing rookie QBs can compete at high level though.  It's not a given they have to struggle.  It's just a baked in excuse if they do look horrid.

lol, that’s how you know you lack dawgs on the defense. They run the same play again testing you and you still get beat! This defense needs a complete overhaul. 

Not sure “dawg” matters it’s Drake London against an undrafted free agent from Georgia Southern. I’d say that’s on the defensive coordinator

Can Bryce stop throwing swing passes when there are plays to make downfield? Give XL a chance to make a play like Penix is doing. Damn it. So fustrating 

This. The D is bad, but stop calling and running swing passes. They rarely work and it is a wasted play.

The Falcons are a good team, tho. Their roster is so, so much better than what most rookies walk into.

BY was still atrocious last year tho

1 Rushing TD, 1 passing TD, so 2 TDS. 

To be fair though, Penix is doing really well too. 204 passing, 1 Passing TD, 1 Rushing TD. Basically same stats as bryce but 100 more passing yards. 

Penix gets to play our defense.

    • So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk. 
    • Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
