Plenty of good news: - Michael Penix Jr. looked solid - Matthew Judon finally lived up to expectations - The defense had another masterpiece - PLAYACTION! - Bijan Robinson was great - The Buccaneers got knocked out of the driver's seat - A lot of NFC teams were eliminated from contention (Cowboys, 49ers, Cardinals)
@@jogriffin9347that’s still an NFL secondary. It’s already apparently Penix can read a defense and is extremely accurate. Reminds me of a tall Tua, just not as much of gunslinger.
Falcons Today has got you covered. See here for more RUclips videos on the Dirty Birds: - Falcons Playoff Picture & Path After Win vs. Giants + Michael Penix Stats & Highlights In NFL Debut: ruclips.net/video/XGs1sMr4Zx4/видео.htmlsi=gQv5hLnfJml-eJQG - NEW Falcons Playoff Path, Clinching Scenarios, NFC South & Wildcard | NFL Playoff Picture & Schedule: ruclips.net/video/wQjn3a-AWlo/видео.html - Atlanta Falcons Options With Kirk Cousins For 2025 Ft. Trade Destinations: ruclips.net/video/BRiazuWCRqc/видео.html
He had 3 great plays He made a great corner throw between 2 defenders He had pa and didn’t throw his first read which was covered and threw his second read for a first Last he moved around, broke a sack and pitched the ball
The thing is that the Giants came after Penix with sometimes 6 man pressure packages and he got the ball off or sidestepped the rush. Cousins would have been sacked 4-5 times.
Pete you are the host for the Falcon, Broncos and Browns channel and it’s probably more teams….. you just out here a sports fan talking about football, damn Pete, I’m not mad just a little bit upset
Just those 3 I promise😂 I understand though as it is a unique set up. Just the cost of working at a growing company and wanting to cover the NFL for a living
I think if we win out and Washington loses out we may get that last wild card spot, we’ll both be 10-7 and we’ll have that head to head. I may be wrong though I’m not sure who they play week 18
Atlanta can't get a wild card spot at this point. If Atlanta wins out, they're the division champs. If Washington loses out, then Tampa Bay could get that last wild card spot.
@THEfAMILLYGAMERS Yes, I know. If Washington wins one more game, they get the last wild card. If Washington loses their last 2 games, and Tampa Bay wins their last 2 games, then Tampa gets the last wild card spot, assuming Atlanta wins their last two.
If Penix makes smart decisions, our run game is working and the defense takes advantage of Jayden Daniels always trying to do too much... we will win that game. I think it was dumb of Raheem to run out the clock at the end. It was a perfect opportunity to run Penix in a 2 min drill so he has in game experience with it. We will need that experience later on.
I really appreciate your efforts! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
We beat the eagles too so that’s makes us and the commanders even so it’s any ones game but I’m a falcons fan so rise up atl and we eagles by more points so got it
Don’t get caught up in the stats when comparing Penix Jr to Cousins. One of the biggest problems with Kirk is he doesn’t play complimentary football. So the defense will play better when PX jr is in. Unless you care more about your fantasy football team than your pro football team. As a Commanders fan, I’m pretty scared of yall with PX next week and playoffs on the line for both us.
The Falcons need to go with the retro uniforms for a couple of reasons. For starters, the numbers on the modern jerseys look soft and weak. The jersey we wore against the Giants, particularly the number font, is clean and tight. I love the red helmets with either logo on it, but I have to say, the old Falcon logo still has the juice. They could alternate the helmet, but the jersey needs to go back to the style they wore against the Giants, black, white, red, all three of them need to have the style of Penix's debut. Holla if ya hear me!
Honestly, I think Washington wins this weekend against us. Playoffs are probably a no go for us this year as well but atleast Penix can get some play time. Next year is our year.
Impressed with MP play yesterday. Unfortunately, we have to face Atl former HC , DQ, and his team which has looked good all year . I don’t think we have the Talent the commanders have . Penix is going to be exciting to watch . TB has easier remaining games and will win the division.
Id give Penix a B I seen alot from his play but as you said the game went left quickly and we don’t and won’t know what how the play calling would have changed had the game been close or even playing a game from behind for a long period of time so i give him a B because i cant give him an A yet with what we saw really for me knowing he has 4.46 speed id like to see him use it a little more and not so much just scrambling for a couple yards but more so to extend a play to give his receivers time to make the dbs earn their pay yea a qb that can run 10-20 yards for a first down is great but i love the plays like lamar and mahomes avoiding a couple defenders and then finding an open receiver downfield, im not sure Penix has that in him but it would be a miracle if he did lol im definitely not predicting he does as a falcons fan we know our luck is not that good
Remember bois Good teams should CRUSH bad teams like this. It’s pretty self evident sure, but the fact we couldn’t do something like this to the Raiders showed we needed change, so since we dominated against the Giants? That's pretty good. I’m not finna start partying until we crush the Commies but, don’t take a win for granted in football
Imma say Washington beats us and if i had to guess how id say the offense does their job but lake will call this game way too conservative because of the threat Daniels is on his feet.. i said early this season we wasnt getting sacks because we wast forreal sending our pass rushers the was more less spying the qb across the board, thats changed since the bye and the team as a whole has a boost of confidence i just dont want to see the seesaw effect we have seen this year where the offense sucks and defense is good in week 1 then defense sucks and offense is good through the next several weeks then it was back to offense sucks and defense was good until last week which was the first game we have seen where all 3 teams O,D,special all was on the same level
@ i didn’t want to be and i was only partially right the defense in the first half wasn’t too conservative then we got a lead i never would’ve thought that Raheem deliberately wasted soo much clock not once but both halfs that costs us the game also the accuracy of Penix, i can only hope it was jitters and lack of time with the receivers in a game with everything on the line in primetime and will get better but idk man there was just so many over thrown balls it scares me
@@christyler5980 Yeap He Overthrew Drake London Soo Many Times. I Think That Was Lack Of Playing Time Considering It Was His 2nd Game Of Season And Very 1st Road Game. Also Raheem Didn't Call A Time-out Wasting Soo Much Time Also Cost Them.
People are acting like this defense is something amazing all of the sudden. The Giants are one of if not the worst teams in the NFL. The D didn't get better the competition got worse and we're about to go 0-2 vs former coaches.
Who ya got? Falcons or Commanders

Let’s goo we got the 4th seed back let’s win next week and keep it
1st! Calmed Fluid Offense yesterday under Penix Jr.
B lil nervous at first but got better throughout.. rise up!
If our defense stays like it has these past couple weeks we will be good
What's your grade for Michael Penix’s first start? A, B, C, D or F
probably a b+, a few missed throws, that INT shouldn't have counted
B

Solid, solid B+. My man was really good, not great. But, they did not ask him to be great, nor did he need to be.
So, job well done!
He had 3 great plays
He made a great corner throw between 2 defenders
He had pa and didn’t throw his first read which was covered and threw his second read for a first
Last he moved around, broke a sack and pitched the ball
Saints and Panthers would both love to steal a win from either rivals.

1st place baby!!!
I'm so glad we drafted Michael Penix jr. We're definitely going to get a Super Bowl out of him before he retires
Michael Penix stats:
Play-action rate: 20.7%
Pressures/Sacks: 14/0
Vertical passing
Spirals so tight receivers dropping easy passes 😁
Petey I’m distracted by the shaving mishap…
So it is noticeable😂
Atl ❤
Falcons Just Win Baby
How’s about them Dirty Birds! Out of the ashes the Penix will Rise Up! & Fly Falcons Fly!
In the voice of Jimmy Johnson, " HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!"
LMFAO
As a Commanders and Falcons fan, I HATE THE COWBOYS! But I loved them last night!
B+ for Penix looks pretty good 👍
The thing is that the Giants came after Penix with sometimes 6 man pressure packages and he got the ball off or sidestepped the rush. Cousins would have been sacked 4-5 times.
Will find out this Sunday if the offense is for real. Hard to judge against the Giants.
Pete you are the host for the Falcon, Broncos and Browns channel and it’s probably more teams….. you just out here a sports fan talking about football, damn Pete, I’m not mad just a little bit upset
Just those 3 I promise😂
I understand though as it is a unique set up. Just the cost of working at a growing company and wanting to cover the NFL for a living
@ no hard feelings, we all gotta eat… you a real one for replying
If the defense plays close to the way they’ve played the last three weeks I’ve got the falcons
I think if we win out and Washington loses out we may get that last wild card spot, we’ll both be 10-7 and we’ll have that head to head. I may be wrong though I’m not sure who they play week 18
If we win out, we win the South
Atlanta can't get a wild card spot at this point. If Atlanta wins out, they're the division champs. If Washington loses out, then Tampa Bay could get that last wild card spot.
@@oliverhardy7909if we lose and then win.. and Washington wins and loses… and Tampa wins out… Washington wins wild card.
@THEfAMILLYGAMERS Yes, I know. If Washington wins one more game, they get the last wild card. If Washington loses their last 2 games, and Tampa Bay wins their last 2 games, then Tampa gets the last wild card spot, assuming Atlanta wins their last two.
@ okay that makes sense
Thank you Cowboys
Thank You Commanders!!

The Penix Mightier
We’re still cooked this year but next year is gonna be gold
Impressed with MP play yesterday. Unfortunately, we have to face Atl former HC , DQ, and his team which has looked good all year . I don’t think we have the Talent the commanders have .
Penix is going to be exciting to watch .
TB has easier remaining games and will win the division.
I breaks my heart, but I have Dan Quinn and Olamide Zagcheaus voodoo dolls that I am working over everyday till Sumday.
IT WERE A OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE. BUT IT WERE THE Giants. Let's wait a little longer and see.
Dude we control our destiny right now
Give me the PENIX PARADE!!
LETS GOOOO
Kirk face was on smug the whole game lol
Id give Penix a B I seen alot from his play but as you said the game went left quickly and we don’t and won’t know what how the play calling would have changed had the game been close or even playing a game from behind for a long period of time so i give him a B because i cant give him an A yet with what we saw really for me knowing he has 4.46 speed id like to see him use it a little more and not so much just scrambling for a couple yards but more so to extend a play to give his receivers time to make the dbs earn their pay yea a qb that can run 10-20 yards for a first down is great but i love the plays like lamar and mahomes avoiding a couple defenders and then finding an open receiver downfield, im not sure Penix has that in him but it would be a miracle if he did lol im definitely not predicting he does as a falcons fan we know our luck is not that good
Im rooting for the Falcons regardless, but Dirtybirds got their hands full against the Commanders
Panthers and Saints are gonna be slathered up for the Bucs.
Remember bois Good teams should CRUSH bad teams like this. It’s pretty self evident sure, but the fact we couldn’t do something like this to the Raiders showed we needed change, so since we dominated against the Giants? That's pretty good.
I’m not finna start partying until we crush the Commies but, don’t take a win for granted in football
ATLANTA
At least he didn't kill most of our drives with a sack or turnover like cousin/Ryan...
ATL all day
I got my dirty birds defense needs to play close offense needs to jus click
WSH lost @ home to PIT & DAL, so I give us a 45% chance, but ATL is like Lucy pulling the ball away @ the last moment.
I like the panther over the TAMPA
😂😂
