Penix is still struggling to hit the easy passes...his footwork is still a problem, causing him to miss too many easy opportunities; that and his inability to access multiple arm angles—he's stiff as a board. He can make the difficult throws scouts drool over, but routinely botches the layups.

Penix's footwork and accuracy issues persist; mechanical flaws limit early-down efficiency.

Penix continues to struggle with fundamental accuracy and mechanics despite flashing ability on difficult throws. The source identifies persistent footwork issues and inability to access multiple arm angles as core problems causing him to miss easy passes; these mechanical deficiencies exist independent of his rib injury and are limiting his effectiveness on early downs. The source questions whether Penix is a franchise quarterback, noting that his future is uncertain if he cannot resolve these technical issues, and emphasizes that a better throw to Robinson late in the game would have prevented the rib injury from mattering at all.
