Michael Penix Jr. just proved everyone wrong in real time in Falcons' Week 4 win

The Atlanta Falcons delivered the exact sort of redemption fans were hoping for in Week 4 against the Washington Commanders. The Falcons knocked off the Commanders 34-27 on Sunday afternoon, improving to 2-2 in a much-needed victoy entering the bye week. The offense was hiring on all cylinders at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and it looks like Raheem Morris and Zac Robinson put all doubt to rest.

After being blanked by the Panthers last weekend, there were rumblings of a quarterback controversy in Atlanta, but Michael Penix Jr. instead made a statement, proving exactly why Morris believes in the second-year quarterback.
