He looks like he's gonna make the QB decision really difficult for Atlanta.

Looks almost as good as Matt Flynn used to.

ESPN didn't qualify his debut as stupendous as thread title might indicate...
Falcons: Rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. performed just about exactly as he has so far in practice during training camp: wowing with some big plays, but also missing open targets with overthrows. That's completely fine for the Atlanta Falcons, since Penix won't be starting this year behind veteran offseason addition Kirk Cousins.
Penix was 9-of-16 for 104 yards without a touchdown or an interception, playing for the majority of the first quarter. Coach Raheem Morris said at halftime he felt "great" about Penix's play in his first NFL game. Penix's best pass was a beautiful floater on a go route down the sideline to WR Chris Blair for 41 yards.

Watched Mike and he looked just about how I thought he'd look. I wasn't as blown away as some but I guess that's because I'm well aware of his capabilities. I saw a kid that needs to spend less time thinking and more time reacting and surrendering to his ridiculous skillset. He'll get there and soon. If he can stay relatively clean, sky is the limit. Kirk is going to have his work cut out for him.
