The Atlanta Falcons aren't ready for Michael Penix yet

Locked On Falcons - Daily Podcast On The Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons endorsed Kirk Cousins for another week as the team's starting quarterback. Host Aaron Freeman explains why at this pivotal moment of the 2024 NFL season, the Falcons aren't ready to turn to rookie Michael Penix Jr. The conversation touches on the importance of a nurturing environment for a young quarterback and why the Falcons aren't quite there yet.

This episode dives into the team's playoff prospects, exploring how Cousins' leadership and the strategic decisions by Raheem Morris could shape their path forward. He offers an analytical take on the Falcons' current performance and the team's potential to challenge for a playoff spot atop the NFC South or as a wildcard.
