If he was the starting quarterback and didn't have that oblique injury to start the year, I think he could help them maintain a competent offense. They have enough weaponry and Stefanski is a good enough play caller where they would have been able to be effective.

Penix's return could stabilize Falcons offense, but roster limitations remain.

Michael Penix Jr. is expected to return to the Atlanta Falcons after missing the first two games with an oblique injury. The source notes that if Penix was the starting quarterback and didn't have the oblique injury to start the year, he could help the Falcons maintain a competent offense given their sufficient weaponry and Stefanski's play-calling ability. However, the source also emphasizes that even with Penix's return, the team's overall roster quality, coaching, and difficult schedule limit upside.
