His statement reflects a broader sentiment that many fans and analysts are unhappy with coaching decisions despite not recognizing strategic changes. Kirk Cousins' calls for more preseason reps highlight some disagreement, yet the real concern is player health, especially after recovering from an injury. The team's preseason choices, rather than causing failure, were based on prioritizing player well-being and readiness for competition.
Penix has his coach's back, emphasizing that in college there are no exhibition games; players must be ready to go from the start.
