Locked On Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons face an uncertain future after Michael Penix's knee injury threatens to sideline him for the remainder of 2025 and casts doubt on his role as franchise quarterback beyond next season. Host Aaron Freeman breaks down the fallout from Penix's potential ACL tear, detailing immediate roster shifts as Kirk Cousins steps in and exploring long-term options for Atlanta at quarterback. Key discussion points include the disappointing trajectory under Raheem Morris and Terry Fontenot, the impact of recent draft picks like James Pearce, and the likelihood of major organizational changes. Will owner Arthur Blank support a complete reset as quarterback questions mount and the playoff drought looms? The episode also touches on the need for fresh vision and why hope for a quick turnaround might be misplaced. Can the Falcons chart a path out of mediocrity, or is a hard reset inevitable? #atlantafalcons #nfl #carolinapanthers #nflweek11 #week11 #michaelpenixjr #kirkcousins #raheemmorris #terryfontenot #james
