STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Penix's pistol-heavy usage limits offensive flexibility and suggests coaching concerns.

Penix is predominantly used in pistol formation (14 pass attempts under center so far this season, compared to six attempts two years prior), limiting his effectiveness in the offense. Matt Harmon notes the Falcons' reluctance to develop Penix under center despite having a decent run game and offensive line, suggesting a lack of confidence in his ability to execute from that position.
