Probably not, but that would depend on the sizes of the meteoroids. Technically, meteoroids refers to fairly small-ish space rocks, up to perhaps 100 feet in diameter. Bigger than that, one would talk about asteroids rather than meteoroids. To make the entire Earth uninhabitable, it would take rocks a few MILES in diameter.
The typical meteoroid is the size of a grain of rice or smaller, and the Earth hits tens of thousands of them per day. A meteoroid the size of a Baseball is relatively rare; a few per week, perhaps.

What does pangaea mean in Greek?

What two layers of the atmosphere protect you?
The stratosphere and the mesosphere protect you from harmful ultraviolet radiation and most meteoroids. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, which absorbs and scatters the sun's UV radiation. The mesosphere helps burn up most meteoroids before they can reach the Earth's surface.
