Tom Brady said it best. This era is all about rushing rookies into their position instead of DEVELOPING an elite player. Rookies never started they always were behind the flagship QB. They learned, replicated & applied the lessons they learned from the veteran. Then when the torch was ready to be handed over.. the rookie is actually ready for the NFL instead of crumbling under pressure and under DL which we've seen destroy young careers both physically and mentally.
When the league became a model T well what else can you expect? It’s all about skilled positions now(smart teams still get the main pieces together). Spread and throw with just running to offset
Through two weeks not 1 TD pass has been thrown by a rookie QB. They are getting beat up, picked off and their confidence is being hit every game. This is a BLESSING for Penix, especially to watch Cousins, someone who has to fight every game for his respect.
@@Corbin2the man said a passing td! Running in a td isn’t a passing td. His point is definitely valid. The commanders obviously forgot the lesson with RG3. Daniels will suffer the same fate eventually if they allow him to keep running like a mad man. I’ve seen open receivers yet he still wants to run. He has talent but he needs to balance it out. He should mimic Josh Allen
Jordan love hasn't proven a thing lmao.. dude had 1 decent year and all of a sudden hes a franchise QB and one of the best in the league? I don't think so, buddy. It's obvious you're a Packers fan.
@@speakinfaxonly21 it isn’t obvious. He just said it paid off very well for Jordan Love, not the packers. He finally got to start, went to the playoffs, won a playoff game, and then got paid. Regardless of whether or not he ever goes back to the playoffs it worked out very well for him. Getting to sign a big second contract is a win. Mac Jones and Fields would love that type of security right now. Instead one isn’t playing at all and the other one is trying to beat out a washed Russel Wilson.
He’s garbage, the huskies were held back by his poor play he had what will likely be 3 maybe 4 first round draft pick players to throw to, without that he would have been trash.
Good for him and bad for Kirk considering this team still has obvious holes and they used the #8 pick on a backup qb projected to go in the 30s. Coulda had one of the best linemen in the draft. The best linebacker. The best pass rusher. The best TE. The best DB. But no they took a dude who specifically won’t help them win in the near future. It’s like the jordan love pick but worse because Penix is already like 25 years old. Because even tho the qb jordan love has panned out after sitting for 3 years, the effectively punted on ever competing with Aaron Rodgers by doing that when they were arguably a first round pick away from a SB. And by the time Love became the starter, the veteran talent on the team aged out of being elite so they had to restart with their Oline, WRs, and defense. Again it’s working out for them so far… but you gotta wonder if they’ll ever get as close as they were with Rodgers
@@eliyarrows2456They tampered to get Kirk. They knew they would get caught, so they drafted their QB while they still had a chance. Miami lost a pick for attempting to tamper Tom Brady, they were protecting themselves in case they lost multiple 1sts. They only lost a 5th rd pick, but they had no way of knowing the punishment would be a slap on the wrist.
The greats don't. Its irrelevant when you looking at reality and not a snippet of the world. Brett Favre, Peyton Manning, Steve Young, Joe Montana, Troy Aikman, John Elway, Dan Marino.
I'm so glad they're taking their time to develop Michael behind Kirk Cousins. To be fair, right now Kirk is one of the best QBs he could sit behind. The alternatives were younger and less experienced, so it wouldn't have been as good.
His helmet is on so he can Listen to the Play-calls from his OC and watching Kirk execute them. He's just learning and observing. Notice he takes his helmet off once the offense leaves the field.
Probably. All the others got rushed into starting positions on bad to mediocre teams. Jayden Daniel's is looking the best so far out of the 3 main ones. Drake Maye is mostly just sitting while Brissett plays sacrificial lamb behind that high school O-Line the Pats have
sitting and Learning from a veteran your rookie year has worked out well for Patrick mahomes as well. This was the right move and Penix Jr will be thankful in the future...
I loved both Penix Jr and Jayden Daniels coming out of college this year! They are 2 guys I loved watching in college and hope they dominate the nfl level!
Ngl this is good for him to sit and learn. Everyone throws rookies into the fire. Sit learn grow the hunger and become humble. He will be great in the future. Patience is the key.
Bro's making good money, learning from a vet, and is always on standby. Ready to go when his number is called. I doubt he's upset, he's in a really good position right now.
A backup QB is like any other backup player with one exception. They’re all potentially a play a way due to injury, from being out in to play. But a backup WB has to absolutely ready to go when called. Paying attention to the game like this will make for an easier transition
It’s actually nice seeing Penix get to sit behind a guy like Kirk rather than throwing him to the wolves and making him fend for himself. I hope MP is able to learn and develop into the player he has the potential to be.
If im being Honest, Kirk Cousins is one helluva quarterback and he seems like such a quality human being, Michael Penix Jr could not have landed in a better position, he goin learn from watching his rookie heacoach and 12 year veteran qb make mistakes so he doesn't have to when he gets his opportunity
He’s the only rookie qb I think will have staying power in the league. Having watched his games from about week 5 of college and on he looks incredible.
I’l think waiting and learning behind a veteran is the best move.
Absolutely.. look at Bryce young and Caleb. two big stars in the college level having rough starts
Jordan Love, Jalen Hurts, and especially Mahomes have greatly benefited by doing so.
@@topsykretts2264who was mahomes a backup too?

Could of been starting on the Vikings but might have to sit behind Cousins for 4 years that’s his entire rookie contract

True definition of “put me in coach” he’s ready for when it’s his time
He will appreciate that time on sidelines someday. Lots of greats started that way.
The next Warren Moon. Kid almost lost it all due to injury...he knows he's been given a gift. Hope I get to see him in a game that matters soon.
You won't
Smart move. I'm glad he seems to be soaking it in. I truly hope for nothing more than the best for Penix for carrying my Hoosiers.
I think this is the best route for him to take. Excited to see what he can do in a year or two time. Dudes a baller
This is what every rookie quarterback should be doing sitting behind a veteran quarterback that knows what to do
He will do well
It's cool Lil bro....when it's here...we wanna see you shine
Your time will soon come son.
Be patient
Don't rush this guy... His tyme will come!
I’m just glad we’re slowly going back to rookie QBs being backups and becoming starters later on
Penix will be a beast. Kirk is a solid qb to learn from.
Him learning from cousins is good. Hopefully he’ll be a good quarterback one day
What you didn't see is the green dot on his helmet. He's listening to Kirk and coach calling plays as he stands watching. Full immersion
That's very insightful thank you for telling.
Remember young man you're the future your tume eill come
As a saints fan, I want to see Cousins as long as possible cause I know Penix is going to be a beast
Watch and learn Michael! Learn to prepare and be ready!
Falcons are doing a wonderful thing by bringing this young man along slowly.
This will pay off in 3 years , I promise!
I like how hes just observing by himself with no distraction to make him look away from the play so he memorize every detail of the play
He’s being set up for success
Best thing for him. Watching and learning from a vet and will get his chance and do great in the near future
Keep working and eventually you’ll be the one teaching the rookie 🫡
Penix JR looking great out there in his Atlanta Jerseys.
After watching the others rookies who are starting right now this looks like the best move lol
I'm happy for MPJ. That's a great situation
You can tell he was brought up the RIGHT way, if your helmet’s off, you’re not ready nor prepared
He’s listening to the play calls every backup does this
Hes gonna be the truth. Packers fan
He’s going to be great once he finally gets his chance.
Father time is undefeated. He will definitely have his time to shine and he will be ready if he puts in the hard work.
That’s how the best literally are made
I think he'll be great. Got a good gut feeling.
He should be a top 10 QB in the league if he can stay healthy - Bears fan
He's gonna be great soon
Any rookie who who doesn’t just start day 1 because the team is desperate should be thankful
In due time, you.....will....be....next up💯💪🏿🙏🏿🔥
