#falcons Tua fumbles the snap, dolphins recover

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

#Falcons Offense led by Tua scored a TD on the opening drive.

Tua was 3/4 with 54 passing yards, most of the yards were YAC , but Tua did what he needed.

@JoePatrick what performance would tua have to have tomorrow in your opinion to change that

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

I do think tua will end up being all right with just short passes mainly, I don’t think the offense will be scheming anything crazy.

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

Tomorrow’s preseason i would say is one of the most important pre season games in recent #Falcons history.

If Tua plays BAD i think that makes it very likely Penix starts week 1, if he plays good I don’t think it wins him the job, but it definitely would help his chances.

[Kurt Benkert @KurtBenkert]

Give him time, he’s just getting started.

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

#Falcons coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters that Michael Penix Jr won't play in the preseason final, with Penix adding that three practices is just too soon.

But Penix has put himself in position to win the job with his play.

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

ok ok tua balled today

[Daniel Flick @ByDanielFlick]

Very good day for Tua Tagovailoa.

He went 8-for-9 passing in 11-on-11 with a touchdown to Jahan Dotson on a busted coverage, and he went 4-for-5 passing in 7-on-7 with two touchdowns.

Worked w/ ones in 7s, mix of ones & twos in 11s, some scout work against third-string D, too.

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

Looks like we have a competition

[Daniel Flick @ByDanielFlick]

Both Falcons QBs off to good starts today.

Tua with the starters in 7s, twos in 11s. Penix worked with twos in 7s and ones in 11s.

Falcons did redzone drill for 7s — both threw two TDs — then two-minute for 11s.

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

@Mowas861 i thinks it’s trying to back it’s guess on who is gonna win so just glazing penix

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

I had chatgpt make this graphic on who it thinks will win the #Falcons QB battle and this is what it came up with. (stats are since Penix has been cleared)

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

Penix was safe with the ball last year, but maybe too conservative to prevent turnovers.

Guy to keep an eye on, every preseason game he has played he has been impressive…

[Marc Raimondi @marcraimondi]

Justin Hood says this is the best S DeMarcco Hellams has looked in his three years with him. #Falcons

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

@Xionnn13 yeah for sure

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

I don’t only think Michael Penix will be the #Falcons QB this year, i think he will be for many more years to come…

He has the traits such as leadership and arm power….

but my favorite thing about him is his mental toughness, he has had 5 season ending injuries

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

@Quan2000edk @PodcastTheRun those haters gonna hate

[Atown Breakdown @ATown_Breakdown]

#Falcons QB Michael Penix has started in 12 NFL Games…

In 5 of those he led the team to a game tying or lead taking drive…

Out of those 5 these lost all 5 due to either missed kicks or poor defense.
