N/S Falcons benched QB Kirk Cousins and will start Michael Penix Jr (5 Viewers)

Kirk and Dak

And Sam Bradford. Man that guy was a professional thief


Anyway, I’m super glad to see the falcons burning up their cap space and going nowhere fast. I hope they all fail miserably

Can't wait to watch Penix flop

Falcons gonna Falcon.

It's fun to watch the train wreck year after year!

I thought the Falcons were gonna win the NFC, y’all said

After struggling with the autocorrect on that one, I’m glad we don’t have a QB named penix…

Ummm autocorrect usually defaults to frequently typed words...anything you want to share with the group?

Could’ve just been the proximity to the x and not autocorrect. Either way the wrong word ended up in there.

The question is does Kirk retire…or end up starting for the Jets next year…

I wouldn’t have given Cousins anymore than $28 million over 3 years.

They wasted 100mil on Cousins. It will be even better if Penix busts.

The Penix is not the part of the anatomy that would "bust" during use in the parlance of our times.

In other notes, the dead cap on cutting Cousins is apparently $65M according to Sportrac. Which means the Cousins-Penix rivalry/dilemma will be with the Falcons all offseason and next season.

If their playoffs hopes depend on week 18, it's only fitting that we'll be the ones to end their season in Tampa.

It's our mission. It's our duty.

It would be ….. but remember back to August? They shut Penix down super quick because he looked really sharp.

They were trying to avoid this exact situation. I have a sickening feeling in the pit of my stomach that they know exactly what they have in Penix.

Penix has the opportunity to build his legend in the next 3 weeks and sadly I think he is going to do it.

I will console myself at least knowing they wasted 100 mil on cousins for 3 quarters of a single season.

Bradford was the biggest thief in all sports. He hardly ever produced, always got injured. He always got paid on potential.

With Dak and Cousins at least they produce sparkling ️ but meaningless stats

Falcons hired the wrong coach. That’s the real issue.

Then they signed a QB who’s not 100% healthy and still isn’t.

They signed a QB who’s one of the best at the play action game and they run play action less than any team in the NFL this season.

So you signed a very average to below average head coach, you signed an injured QB, and then you don’t even tailor an offense to his strengths and get surprised when the results aren’t good.

Falcons always will Falcon

With wins against the Giants and the Panthers?
