Falcons - Giants Week 16 open thread

Related Topics: Atlanta Falcons, New York Giants

The Atlanta Falcons are still chasing their playoff hopes, and a win over the New York Giants is a must if they’re going to do that. But this is also a big game for another reason: It’s Michael Penix’s debut as the starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons.

The hope is that an injury-ravaged, crummy Giants team can’t spoil the party, and the Falcons will be better with Penix under center than they were in that Kirk Cousins swan song against the Raiders. We’re about to find out.

Use this as your open thread for Week 16, and go Falcons!
