Raheem Morris leaves possibility of starting Michael Penix open for Week 16

Kirk Cousins looked lost. Raheem Morris could not have failed to notice that even with a game script that hardly ever called for first down throws and limited the number of passing plays, Cousins was inaccurate, unsteady, and lackluster throughout Monday Night Football. Considering the game was against the lowly Raiders, considering the Falcons put up a season-low point total against that Las Vegas defense, and considering this was the latest in a long string of poor games from Cousins, it was fair to wonder if this might finally be a breaking point.

It appears we’re either there or getting there.
