Michael Penix Jr: The FUTURE Of The Atlanta Falcons.. 

I want Michael Penix to win a Super Bowl for our Falcons so everyone that talked trash, including myself about this pick would have to eat their words. And if he does win the Falcons a Super Bowl, he’ll be one of the greatest draft picks in Georgia professional sports history.

You just lost all credibility by putting JJ McCarth ahead of Penix. Wild

He's not sitting 3 years probably 1 2 at the most

Kirk Cousins contract is really a 2 year 90 million. If the Falcons want to move on from Kirk they will just have to pay him 10-12 million. Which will most likely happen.

Let's hope that Michael Penix Jr will prove all of them wrong and why he belongs in the NFL

Solid video. Appreciate you putting your Saints bias aside 🤝

Penix jr should bring excitement to the Atlanta area.😊

Why do people not learn. Let's take 2 of the flagship programs. The Steelers and the Packers, also the Patriots. The Packers planned for Brett's retirement by drafting Arodge, and Arodge retirement by picking Jordan love. The Steelers had no one to replace Ben, the Patriots have no one to replace Tom . I think all teams should do this year 10 get your guys replacement let him sit a few years and learn, you see what the young guy good at and build around him. 80 million for 3 years when all your weapons have less than 3 years in the league, they will be at their primes when he takes over. Fantastic pick in my opinion,more teams need to do this, give your guy time to grow .

I see why Kirk wanted Ridder as his backup.

First outsider content that I done heard had something good to say about the falcons 👍 I'm subscribing buddy 👍rise up birds

I remember enough to know that the last time the Falcons drafted a defensive player with the 8th overall pick was DeAngelo Hall Virginia Tech but on the offense Running Back Bijan Robinson and Drake London WR who both were the 8th overall picks too but the last time Falcons drafted a lefty QB was Michael Vick Virginia Tech University in the 2001 NFL Draft a 1st Round 1st overall pick don't forget

He’s gonna be a really good QB1 day watch

I liked Michael Penix Jr. in college. Oregon fan speaking and I feared playing this guy. Such a talent for pin point accuracy and as the video said he really can’t be disturbed. This guy is to take over Kirk Cousins if and when Cousins can’t perform or the contract expires.

I like the pick. Developing QBs on the bench used to be the norm.

The evasiveness was in part of Penix being more of a scrambling QB at Indiana and not only has he developed as a thrower but is more disciplined in his runs unlike a Jayden Daniels. Development is needed but assuming they win, they can try and forecast who will be on that 2026 team and fans will be happy if Atlanta ends the third longest active playoff drought.

Great video!! Wish you all the success. Great break down except the hat. But I don’t hate all people. You did great job breaking it down

IF PENIX WINS SUPERBOWL HE WILL BE THE BEST SPORTS PLAYER TO EVER COME TO ATLANTA A TRUE MVP

I hope Penix,Maye,Nix ,and Jj become good somemuch hate on them

Real Talk... Great video !!! We are going to have to send you a Falcons cap... (Lol) Thanks for your sincere opinion...

Dogg! A Saints guy is doin this video about Penix? Is he a spy? 😁

The reason they took Penix even though they're in position to win the NFC South this year, is because now the Falcons will be winning the NFC South for the next DECADE. Penix comes in and is immediately the best young QB in the division by a mile. Not to mention he is surrounded by the best young offensive weapons in the entire division. Atlanta now has 2 years to continue building the defense, keep the o-line a strength, and extend the offensive skill players and then make use of the final 3 years of Penix's rookie scale contract.

What annoys me is that everyone who didn’t like this pick wanted us to draft a QB in 21’ when we didn’t even have a roster at all and we had over 100 Mill in cap hits and we still had Matt Ryan on the roster. Now it’s a problem when the roster is stacked on both sides of the ball and we have a win now QB as well to help out the new guy with enough cap space to still build on what we have.

@16:05 - I think Cousins still starts this year. Pickett kind of proved how you look in camp doesn't really matter in terms of the regular season. Also, I didn't expect such a rational, non-biased video from a gentleman with a Saints hat. Cheers. Liked and subscribed.

It's a private reaction really means cousins is Fucking passed 😅😅

the staff that was just in the same building with matthew stafford said they saw similar traits between him and penix. take him, sit him for a year or 2 then let him play. folks might not like it now but they'll love it later

Penix is the best QB in the class. It’s disgusting how he’s been treated.

FTS but good take. You’re wrong about the Kirk cousins contract though. It’s a backloaded 2 year contract not 3. His cap hit is like $50M in year 3 I’m pretty sure

Love the video bt as a falcons fan man take that hat off lol

Kirk needs to get 2 the SB to get a 3rd yr!😮😅😊

We got him because we are losing atleast 1st round pick next year and he is QB1 of the future.

180,0000 they going be eating that a dent in the cap for them if and when Mike ready no big name free agent they not getting nowhere

Since people keep comparing this to the Packers and Rodgers/Love. How many Super Bowls did GB win with both Rodgers and Love on the roster? 0, goose egg, none. How about with both Favre and Rodgers? Again zip, 0, nada. As a Packers fan the ugly truth of the "Green Bay model" for QBs is that it isn't about winning Super Bowls, it's made for stability and team that good but not great, to ensure the team never gets terrible- but at the cost of greatness, at the cost of going all-in to win a SB. One of the biggest issues why GB didn't win a SB in Rodgers last 3 years in GB was come playoff time GB's one dimensional passing offense with only Davante Adams got shut down completely and our forever suspect secondary got chewed up. Tee Higgins was still on the board when they drafted Love and so were a bunch of soon to be pro bowl secondary players.

Most people go to the bathroom longer than rodgers played this past season

😂😂😂What is Kirk? The past?

Oh, Penix belongs in the NFL. Just not on the Falcons! This selection at #8 is bad on so many levels. The obvious: why did you pay $100 million GUARANTEED to Kirk Cousins then? If you were going to do something like this you don't sign Cousins. Obviously, they didn't plan ahead. This is the same group of executives that talked Arthur Blank out of hiring Bill Belichick to save their jobs - only the greatest head coach in NFL history. They went all-in on signing Cousins, and now they're hedging their bets. What if he gets hurt? Well, you sign a capable backup QB in the off season. Did they do that? No. So you used up a highly valuable 8th pick in the Draft to sign a guy you HOPE doesn't play a down for you. Nice. Because if Cousins gets hurt, you're NOT gonna win anything with Penix at QB. In the future? Maybe. But now, no chance. Even though Penix is talented - he's still a rookie. And you've flushed 100 million down the toilet. All offense players went in the 1st 7 picks, so you had the cream of the crop of defensive players in the entire college ranks. Did you shore up the defense with a great player for Cousins? Nope. Their pass rush was HORRENDOUS. So now you have to try and fill it with a bunch of lesser-talented players, which means those picks could have been used to shore up other needs. Think about this Falcons fans: the next time they give up 35 points because their defense isn't good enough, will you be happy you have Penix as your backup QB - who isn't even playing? The fans should be pissed. The owner should be pissed because he'll probably die before the Falcons win a Super Bowl. The Vikings are pissed, because by signing Cousins to such a mammoth contract, Minnesota couldn't re-sign him. Michael Penix should be pissed. He's not gonna play (barring a serious injury to Cousins again) until he's at LEAST 27 years old - if not later. Kirk Cousins is an excellent QB. But even excellent QBs need a defense! Is Michael Penix gonna rush the passer? If he is, great pick! Even the great John Elway didn't win championships until Denver made the defense top-notch. Without the #8 pick being spent on a defensive player, the chance of them being top-notch are slim and none. And this crap that they were following the Jordan Love model of the Green Bay Packers is bogus too. Love was 21 and inexperienced AND he was a low first round pick. Penix is 24, very experienced as far as games played, and was a HIGH draft pick in the first round. Not the same at all. The sad thing is Michael Penix is ready and able to be an NFL QB right now. Instead, he's gotta sit around for 2 or 3 years when he could be out there learning to become a great player. The Atlanta Falcons decision is worse than them not just kicking a field goal to beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl. With morons like these guys in charge, they'll NEVER get back there. NEVER.

I know kirk cousins is NOT happy right now

Plz give us a byron murphy jr video. us hawks fans live for videos on our dudes

"Could this be the best pocket passer in the entire draft?" Yes he is and it wasn't even close? Did you research the prospects or not? Only competition for him would have been Caleb Williams who is MUCH better out of the pocket/extending plays.

Part of me thinks this whole video is a saints fan trolling the falcons fans

Talking Falcons witha saint hat on?

If you like saints why talk about Michael penix

PENIX EQUALS SUPERBOWL

Falcons should’ve just drafted penix and ignored Cousins altogether

nice video tho

Kirk might have another really bad injury. He’s getting old. I feel like they should let penix start because Kirk is trash in playoffs in my opinion

Poor. Morris - freeman and ridder scared him so much

Idc wat happened long as Ridder gone I’m good I’ll take Brucie from longest yard over Ridder

what is wrong with leftys 11:34

He lost all credibility when he had J.J. over Jayden wtf bro

We really have to stop drafting back up QBs in the 1st round! And making a big deal about these bumbs! That would be like someone in the early 2000s getting excited because Spurgon Win was drafted by their team. Every year, we take 5 QBs and 5 teams go for these jobbers in round 1. It's a wasted pick and sets the team back years. Only 2 of these years QBs will be good at best, and JJ, Penix, and Nix are not one of them. The vikings are the only ones that make some sense because they are desperate. This will be the last year of this nonsense after Broncos Falcons and Vikings show the league how stupid this is.

I don’t disagree with them taking a qb cause if Kirk gets hurt they need a good backup and he’s the most nfl ready QBs ready to step in whenever Kirk gets hurt. However taking him that early is wild and they should’ve waited and seen if he fell.

The most intriguing and also misguided picks I have ever seen.

They got a out after two years

Kirk is old and injured

Drake Maye helmet for giveaway

Right now no matter how you dress it it’s still a shit show in the making penix in three years will be 27 he a play now QB no body going to pick up cousins hope they hungry they about to eat that bad move that’s not win now that’s a set back they’re going to have to lose in order to win

Falcons are gonna have cap problems in 3-4 years with hiw they have been drafting

Penix is already 24😂

First Comment?

Penix may end up being okay in the NFL sitting for a few years behind Cousins, but he just doesn't have what it takes to be an elite level QB like Dak. He is too injury prone for one, but he lacks the intangibles and ability to oversee the entire field. I think he is way better than JJ McCarthy, but he will be lucky if he reaches half of Dak's level when it comes time for him to start.

I hate when people think they are the GM or head coach… like what the f🤬 will they do if cousins was to go down?

KIRK IS THE NOW BUT PENIX IS THE LATER PENIX IS THE FUTURE

Think. Of this Rome odunzda London Pitts Robison all weapons for Kirt cousins or the 180 million dollar man now look at this the falcons trade penix for a first round pick that give them two first round picks to trade up for a top pick or take the best pick available on both buildings the team

Why the hell a saints fan give a damn about the falcons

Pennix gonna be a star his only problem was injuries

One day the Atlanta falcons will win multiple superbowls 🖤🤍❤️ go Michael

I think the Aints are worried 😂🤣😂🤣😂

Giants need. A QB
