Penix's Quiet Win: Falcons Lean on Run Game
Update: 2025-09-15
Description
Michael Penix Jr. played a conservative game in Atlanta's win over the Vikings, completing 13 of 21 passes for 135 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. The Falcons leaned on their ground game, allowing Penix to manage the offense without needing to force throws. With a comfortable lead, Atlanta avoided risky plays, focusing on ball security. The team's strategy suggests a similar approach may be used in the upcoming game against Carolina, prioritizing a low-risk environment for the rookie quarterback to gain experience.
