On this episode of Buck’s Beat, Buck Belue breaks down the Falcons’ heartbreaking season-opening loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Positives:🏈 Rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. looked legit — showing outstanding pocket presence, mobility when needed, and a clutch gene that gives fans hope.🤝 Kyle Pitts is starting to build real chemistry with Penix.💪 Tyler Allgeier ran hard and effectively.✅ Elijah Wilkinson held his own in a tough spot on the line.🔒 Defensively, rookies Billy Bowman Jr. and Xavier Watts impressed in their first NFL starts. The Negatives:⚠️ GM Terry Fontenot has left way too many holes on this roster — center, OT, WR2, DL, and CB2 all need upgrades.❓ What are the Falcons doing with first-round pick Jalen Walker? Buck says they must put him in a better position to succeed.📉 Both coordinators get a failing grade for Week 1.🚫 Mike Hughes was exposed again at CB2.😬 Younghoe Koo’s missed kick to tie it at the end was tough — but Buck says that’s not why Atlanta lost. 📺 Buck calls it like he sees it: the Falcons have talent, but glaring roster holes and bad coaching decisions cost them the game.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
