I don't understand all the Penix hate. He's a talented QB & it seems like people are being blinded by their hate for ATL. Let's be real, if we drafted Michael Penix Jr (w/ Carr also having 2 years left, like Cousins) would we be saying it was a bad pick? Probably not.
They drafted him at 8 when they had other needs. If they had a lower draft pick like in the mid teens or in the 20s and drafted Penix, then it’d be a different story.
Dude. We already told you that if you sit in Matt's chair you have to get a haircut like his. The player from Clemson for Atlanta sounds like Scooby-Doo talking
The Failcons 2nd pick, im not even gonna try and spell his name but, even tho i dont hate the pick, its the fact that they traded up for him. ANDDDDDD, Jer`Zhan Newton was still on the board. Dumb pick in my opinion, to me it was either Byron Murphy for best DT or Newton, Failcojs will find a way to Fail.
Since the falcons quarterback play has been bad over the years would that not hinder the development of the receivers plus they're all learning a new offense. I'm not saying they are going to be trash but its a possibility that any one of those teams could win the South. And speaking of learning; the defense will also be learning a new scheme. The entire south will have a different install offensively but the bucs and saints will still have the same defensive installs. It's going to be a rough start offensively for the entire South. May have to bet on the veteran defense of the saints because the bucs lost a lot of theirs
Calling a 24 yo qb old is stupid af. Both you and Matt have been calling him old and its stupid. He also hasn’t been injured since he was at Indiana. 3 seasons ago.
I'm doing my analysis based on the #1 pick. You draft to win the division, drafting a QB who might not play until week 8 puts ATL at #4, the Saints and Bucs are tied for #1 because both drafted for needs not eye-candy players as the Panthers did ... so Panthers are #3. They had the 32nd pick to counter what all the others in the division had and they didn't draft a run stopper. Yes the have chose D players in the past years but all were pass rushers and DBs 0 run stoppers. The Saints and Bucs built their OL but the Panthers went WR? Now whose in win now mode, the Bucs. I don't think Baker is that guy he can't put together back to back wining season but its better than what DC has been doing between teams.
They added run stoppers in Wonnum and Clowny. Parr of the reason there run stopping game was so bad last year was they couldn't set the edge and they always played from behind. The offense clearly needed to be the priority in this draft not a run stopper.
@@timothynelson4932 Clowny is a backup pass rusher at this stage of his career, D. J. Wonnum is a LB and just if you didn't know the DT is suppose to occupy the OL so the LB can make a tackle. The problem with the Panthers prior to last year they drafted pass rushers and DBs 1 years all defensive players but no run-stoppers. The Panthers have been gutted vs the run.
@alphasports3743 Clowny didn't play backup numbers last year has always been better at stopping the run then as a pass rusher and will be playing outside linebacker (just like Wonnum) because Carolina plays a 3-4 defense...and just so you know...a 3-4 defense has a NT and 2 DE not a DT.
