Falcons fan here we’ve been not worried about the playoffs since Kirk played so terribly bad. We wanna see what MP9 can do , no expectations. If he balls it’s a win if he doesn’t he needs more reps it’s a win win for us truthfully. Kirk is absolutely outta there as well
I hope most Falcons fans have your attitude. No matter what happens in these next games, kid has a bright future. Hopefully the fans give him the chance he deserves. This season was on Cousins, period.
Some of Acho's takes are wild, but this one is probably up there. He wants a rookie QB ( first time starting in the NFL), with 3 games left and requires Mike Penix to LEAD the Falcons to the playoffs? 😂 Sometimes, he just likes to hear himself talk 😆 🤣
Hold up let me give you a different perspective. Remember this is Tv so it’s not fun to agree all the time. Which would love more wild or simple. Also he has been . To the championship in college so the spot light isn’t new.
Is he wrong penix didn’t have to be Superman to win these games(3) with our roster great weapons and a top offensive line y’all act like there’s no way for him to succeed
Acho really believes if someone was drafted ahead of him it means that player will always be better. Explains why he didn't make it in the nfl. Low confidence
Facts, as if other players like Tom Brady, Shannon Sharpe, etc haven’t shown that you can be picked late and make a great career for yourself. If you always see yourself as less than, you’ll always be less than
Penix is a seasoned rookie. He’ll be fine. Every rookie was asked to do a lot because they were drafted so high. Yes they’ll be a learning curve but we gotta let this guys be challenged. Penix has a great opportunity ahead for him
He's getting first reps against the Giants which is a terrible team. Then he plays against another rookie QB who had to figure things out on his own and Bryce who looked better after sitting behind Dalton. Young QBs has played a lot better after sitting behind a vet. He's mentally prepared, the question is can he physically do it and he's proved in college that he can ball.
@ you must be just talking as well. Seasoned means he’s played a lot of football prior to be drafted. He’s not a raw talent like Anthony Richardson or Trey Lance. Add on the fact he sat for 15 weeks
@ damn near every rookie the year they come in is “seasoned” then most play atleast 2 years as a starter Joe,Lamar, Sam Darnold, Rosen, Kenny Pickett, Zach Wilson, Caleb
I'm trying to tell everyone he's just horrible TV, and he talks waaay tooo much imo. Let the pros argue and just steer the convo bro your takes are hot garbage 😂
It's called entertainment and yall eating exactly what he's trying to serve.. if they all agreed out would be a boring show.. why do u think skip n shannon was successful
I think the Falcons understand they're not gonna win sh*t anyway. Even if they make the playoffs, they're gonna be a 1st round exit. This is more about getting Penix some much needed experience so he feels more comfortable going into next season.
I don’t even think it’s that . I think they just simply believe Penix gives them the best chance to win moving forward. If they didn’t they woulda kept playing Kirk and wining sloppy games
If penix struggles and the falcons miss the playoffs. NOBODY AND I MEAN NOBODY should put blame on him. The blame should be completely put on the falcons coaches for waiting this damn long and kirk cousins for playing this bad late in this season.
If Penix does great and wins all three remaining games and miss the playoffs, the blame is on the coaching staff for not starting him sooner. Bucs automatically clinch the division winning all three of their games no matter what the falcons do.
@@isaiahj.5304Falcons can still be wild card game if they win all 3 games. They will need Commanders to lose to Eagles this week and for Seahawks to lose to Vikings and Rams. Both of those are more than realistic scenarios
Daniels had 3 bad weeks out of 14 games after a injury and against 2 of the best defense in the league and yall acting like he fell off but praising Drake Maye right after 😂
@@TypicalBlakk that’s moreso true for poorly coached or teams that have far less talent on them, which typically falls under poor management. You look at Shanahan lead SF with Jimmy G at QB making it to the SB and Vrabel lead Titans with Tannehill who were considered one of the best teams in the AFC for a few years…. The QB spot can be a quick fix that can cover a multitude of sins if you get the right one, but when the rest of your team is dogwater the truth will always shine through. Example; Cincinnati Bengals. Burrow is having a crazy season as far as stats go but they’re a sub .500 team due to lack of talent on the defense and poor coaching/ leadership.
They shoulda drafted Penix and started him from the beginning rather than waste time and money on Kirk 1 playoff win Cousins. Tampa ain’t losing to a Dak and Trevon Diggs’less cowboy team, cut it out chase
@@mathewstravarus and Bo took a few games to get up to NFL speed and really settle in… and even still he has his ups and downs. Penix could possibly have 3 good outings but we shouldn’t be surprised if he looks rough in these next 3 games
Lamar started first game at week 11. Not week 15. I won't be surprised if he struggles and NOBODY AND I MEAN NOBODY should put blame him if the falcons miss the playoffs
@@jabaricrewsellis8740exactly!! There should be no pressure on the rook to preserve their season when it’s not his fault they’re even in this position in the first place.
The different opinions about this topic shows the skill level of the panels.. the superstars and the back ups.. back ups seem little jealous/envious of the higher draft picks and the expectations. You get drafted high means you gonna get paid, etc etc. It doesn’t matter when you are drafted, rookie is still a rookie and needs to adjust to professional game.
Telling a rookie “hey we need you to go 8-9 or 9-8 throughout the entirety of a season” is different than saying “hey you need to go 3-0 right away” Like everyone needs time to learn and adjust. A first round pick is drafted high bc their talents is expected to make the adjusting period go smoother and faster, but they still need time to adjust nonetheless. Saying to a rookie you need to win your first 3 games as a pro or you failed is crazy
@@Briana-a13 right it’s beyond crazy. Bro has had minimal full speed reps thus far and hasn’t started a game all season. To expect him to immediately hit the ground running with the pressure of leading this team to the playoffs….. bro’s neurons aren’t firing at all
these guys thinking carolina is a walk in the park. since bryce young was reinsterted in the starting lineup, they've been difficult to beat, giving above 0.500 teams a hard time. i'm even giving them the advantage over this shaky falcons team with a bad o-line
And Bucs should have won against the Chiefs and Falcons this year but the refs + They had a shot if Godwin turn around at that Hail Mary against the Bills last year
I don't care if Baker is 0-8 in primetime he's going crazy this year plus the Bucs have an elite run game. When's the last time the cowboys beat a team that can run the ball? And it's his home state on Monday night Baker winning that!
The problem is expecting a rookie to be the Savior to your franchise. That's like expecting the youngest sibling to provide for the whole family. Bad management from the top down, and people wonder why franchises stay in the mud
@@jeremiahtbarmes exactly. Penix ain’t the reason they’re in this “do or die” situation but now all the expectation of success lies on him for the next 3 games? When he hasn’t even played a full game yet this season? Acho and Chase buggin hard with their takes
Already putting pressure on the black man… always a narrative. If he throws 7 picks in 3 games it shouldn’t matter. He is a ROOK. Stop with the expectations already please keep this same energy when Macarthy comes back next year he better start 3-0😂 Drake maye was trash, Bo Nix was trash it takes time bro.
I see you didn't mention Caleb who is black. Or Jayden Daniels who is black. And not to mention 3/4 of these guys on this show are black. What does race have to do with this one again?
😂😂chase and Acho sounds crazy man, it’s exactly what James said, let the young fella get some playing time experience and maybe some playoff experience to 😂😂
Don’t forget that Penix was in college for like 6 years. He’s not your average rookie off of that. Plus the season damn near over. Basically had almost a full season to study and watch and get used to things. Expecting him to just be steady when he was drafted at #8 on top of all of that ain’t asking that much like Shady and James is saying
Acho and chase is crazy. A rookie QB in week 16, needing to win 3 games in a row? If he wins 2/3 that’s great for experience. 1/3 is probably most likely. To expect him to step in and take them to the playoffs is crazy.
Man a rookie is still a rookie. The NFL is ALL professionals the very best. A rookie QB who hasn’t even played yet will definitely make mistakes. We will see what happens
It's house money, as long as the Falcons see it that way. QB is the most important piece to find. Cousins seems like a good guy, and understands he's getting older. I think he will certainly help the rookie. It's worth his contract, to help the Rook become the franchise. No pressure. Good luck kid. Go Bills!
The difference between penix and other rookies this year, penix has been sitting behind a veteran QB while the others had to start. So I think penix balling out will be more controlled than the others.
I think that managed expectations is the reasonable thing here. I am a lifelong Falcons fan. I expect MPJ to do well. If that results in enough Ws to make it to the playoffs then fantastic. If KC got hurt in the season, then he would still be expected to play and do well.
Its alot to put the pressure of a playoff birth on the rookie seeing his first game action, would be different it he was playing to due injury like Lamar did back in 18
As a Falcon fan, no i don't expect to make the playoffs. Even if we weren't in the hunt for the playoffs, it would still be time for Penix. If we do win out and make the playoffs, then it'd be a good experience for Penix and gives us Falcon fan a look toward next season. We weren't going to make the playoffs with the way Kirk playing anyway so why not move to Penix. On a side note, our most tragic mistake was thinking Kirk was the missing piece to us competing for a championship.
Acho expecting M Penix to play like Lamar did and score 5 TDs against the giants is insane. Dude is making his first start. Acho you never produced like that to have this kind of expectations for players
Absolutely not, in any other conventional situation, Micheal Penix would be already out there anyway, for example if the falcons don't draft him and some other team drafts him --OR-- if the falcons don't sign Kirk, Micheal Penix had to know that it was a possibility he could be a starter on an NFL team when he entered the draft
They might be putting Michael P in the lions den 💪🏾💪🏾🏈🏈😎😎🔥🔥🔥🏈🏈, but I do believe he's going to be all right. He's already played in big games last year like Michigan, now he's with the big boys and I think he'll do just fine 💪🏾💪🏾😎😎🔥🔥🏈🏈. So with that being said, our Hotlanta 🔥🔥🏈🔥 Falcons 🔥🔥🏈🔥 quarterback Michael P 💪🏾💪🏾🏈🏈🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾🙂🙂 will be ready to play and have fun 🙂👏🏾👏🏾🔥🏈💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🏈🔥🔥👏🏾🙂🙂🏈😎😎😎👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾. He already knows he's in the Lion's den, and he don't have to prove nothing to nobody this late in the season.
I don’t think the expectations are really high. My guess is they’re like “what do we have to lose” right now. Let’s see what the rook can do/ see if he can breathe life into this offense. There should be no expectation to lead them to the playoffs Acho buggin here acting like “all I need from Penix is 3 good games”…. Like bro all these other dudes had more games to get their stuff straight. Bro gets 3 late season games to try and lead them to the playoffs when rookies sometimes need AT LEAST 3 games worth of full speed reps under their belt to get all their faculties straight. If Penix can do it, good on him. If not, there should be no slander for him seeing as how he’s not had the opportunity to get a good section of “runway” to get up into the air
He didn’t have to carry like shady said we have a top 3 backfield a plethora of weapons that Kirk before the last 5 weeks would feed. He’s been learning form some of the more favorable qbs. He’s didn’t have to be Superman he just has to play competent football. If we have to run a lot so what we have 2 1k running backs
I only came to see what JJ had to say on this but decided to give Acho a chance… that was a mistake and I knew better. I’ll just skip past him talking from now on like I usually do 😂
My mindset is, if they wasn't going to start him midway through the season, then they shouldn't start him at all. I don't give a dang if you're a top ten anything, you still need time to build chemistry Which you're guys that takes time. I don't care who you are.

These are the low IQ type of comments
He won a playoff game I think mahome got hurt on a playoff run one year
I'm convinced that Acho loves to hear himself talk. He'll use 2 paragraphs to ask a 6 six word question.
Even if he reads this - he won't change a thing.
N a riddle n a quote lol

He's already played in big games last year like Michigan, now he's with the big boys and I think he'll do just fine 💪🏾💪🏾😎😎🔥🔥🏈🏈. So with that being said, our Hotlanta 🔥🔥🏈🔥 Falcons 🔥🔥🏈🔥 quarterback Michael P 💪🏾💪🏾🏈🏈🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾🙂🙂 will be ready to play and have fun 🙂👏🏾👏🏾🔥🏈💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🏈🔥🔥👏🏾🙂🙂🏈😎😎😎👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾. He already knows he's in the Lion's den, and he don't have to prove nothing to nobody this late in the season.
Yall talking crazy to expect a rookie in this spot to deliver off the rip...
I don’t think the expectations are really high. My guess is they’re like “what do we have to lose” right now. Let’s see what the rook can do/ see if he can breathe life into this offense. There should be no expectation to lead them to the playoffs
Acho buggin here acting like “all I need from Penix is 3 good games”…. Like bro all these other dudes had more games to get their stuff straight. Bro gets 3 late season games to try and lead them to the playoffs when rookies sometimes need AT LEAST 3 games worth of full speed reps under their belt to get all their faculties straight. If Penix can do it, good on him. If not, there should be no slander for him seeing as how he’s not had the opportunity to get a good section of “runway” to get up into the air
He didn’t have to carry like shady said we have a top 3 backfield a plethora of weapons that Kirk before the last 5 weeks would feed. He’s been learning form some of the more favorable qbs. He’s didn’t have to be Superman he just has to play competent football. If we have to run a lot so what we have 2 1k running backs
Replace Chase with another brother. He doesn’t mix
And acho does?
Another terrible take by Acho nothing new here
I only came to see what JJ had to say on this but decided to give Acho a chance… that was a mistake and I knew better. I’ll just skip past him talking from now on like I usually do 😂
MICHAEL PENIX JR READY TO PUT ON A SHOW .. HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLAYING 2-3 GAMES AGO ..
Chase do you think it’s to much to ask
Chase no
Also Chase I know it’s alot but you drafted him at 8 😂😂
Thats easy even Mama gonna listen to Grandma, you listen to Grandma .
This segment showed which 2 guys were great & which 2 were mediocre 😂
Falcons players saying this guy is a special talent
Beyond special, an he's a hard worker. He will take the league by storm next year💯. Don't be surprised if they only loose 2-3 games next year
"Press play" 😂😂😂😂😂
Here to remember people talking that Chase has the same playoff wins as Dak and Kirk and only 1 less than Lamar
So because you reach on a player means now it’s on them to play like the position you drafted them in
Its ny and Carolina lets be real here only wash is the tough matchup
My mindset is, if they wasn't going to start him midway through the season, then they shouldn't start him at all. I don't give a dang if you're a top ten anything, you still need time to build chemistry Which you're guys that takes time. I don't care who you are.
Chase brought up glizzy and they tried to pause ⏸️ the man, he replied with press play ▶️
They started him against the Giants. They knew what they were doing and it was against the right opponent
Ok now Shady is back. James also.
The other 2 i have no idea
What they are saying; i have no idea.
"My mama said this but grandma said that. Who you listening too?"
Chase: "I never had that problem because we listened to our dad."
All Penix has to do is make the plays that are there to make and hand the ball off. the strength of the falcons is the run game
Reasoning like Acho is why MOST young QB’s are set up to fail from the beginning. The development process for QB’s for the most part is terrible.
