The Atlanta Falcons have fired defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake and defensive line coach Jay Rodgers following first-year coach Raheem Morris’ sharp criticism of his defense.

Two games into the Michael Penix Jr. era, it's clear the Atlanta Falcons are in good hands at quarterback. Trouble is, there might not be enough time to salvage a trip to the playoffs.

Michael Penix Jr. won his debut as Atlanta's starting quarterback, thanks largely to a defense that returned a pair of interceptions for touchdowns, and the Falcons bolstered their playoff hopes by handing the hapless New York Giants their franchise-record 10th straight loss, 34-7 on Sunday.

Atlanta Falcons head coach Rahim Morris announced on Tuesday that he has named Michael Penix Jr. the starting quarterback moving forward.

Atlanta is a contender in the weak NFC South despite another shaky performance from quarterback Kirk Cousins that led the Falcons to become a run-first team.

Kirk Cousins threw his first touchdown pass in five weeks and the Atlanta Falcons did just enough Monday night to beat the struggling Las Vegas Raiders 15-9 and keep pace in the NFC South race.
