Lol I live here in Atlanta and have been one of the biggest Falcons fans all my life... Smith was trash at play calling here man. I'm sorry to say that and maybe he'll do better as oc than a hc but what we got here was absolute hell for 3 yrs n im sooooooooo glad he's gone! Good luck
Steelers DB: thank you for explaining this so well & the way you use videos. I don’t consider myself ADD but some prominent former players drive me nuts the way they pause in tiny increments, talk for a long time & never really run the whole play at once. Your video has a nice flow. Other fans can give their opinions too. IMHO you can’t run a whole play too many times whether on slow-mo while speaking or at speed multiple at the beginning & end. Thanks again for explaining how Smith does these things. Really hoping Russ & Justin immerse themselves in Smith’s offense because they’re not really West Coast timing guys anyway. It seems like these routes also put enough defenders downfield to give a mobile QB a great chance to tuck it & take off laterally. I hope they’re under center a lot & have a violent offensive line that explodes off the snap & pushes around opponents & use play action & deep shots after wearing down opponents. IMHO there’s a lot of “safety LBs” on defenses that could be worn down by a committee of heavy RBs. Steelers offense needs to stay on the field & wear down opponents so that our excellent defense can play from a lead & hunt when opponents switch to a drop back game trying to keep up on points. I know that Russ that Justin have some issues but Smith’s scheme fits them & it can be fun to watch if they can sustain drives.
Would love to see some stuff on his time in Tennessee, particularly how he got the best out of an average quarterback like Tannehill, and how ne blocked up the running game. I know we don't really have the personnel to run outside zone, but he is reportedly well versed with mixing up inside zone and some man blocking, duo, etc.
Yea, outside zone was a staple in Tennessee for a LONG time, Munchak tried to implement it when he got to Pittsburgh, but scrapped it and just did inside zone mixed with other concepts, I expect Smith to do the same, especially with the talk recently from Art about adapting your scheme to fit the players you have
As a falcons fan, good breakdown. Steelers got a good OC for their roster. Don't worry about tight end use. The biggest question mark is QB, but honestly he wasn't given a chance in Atlanta. Fired going into the one off-season you could argue being weak at QB aligns with options. Just my opinion. Think this will work out really well with Pat
Ok my question is, are these plays his playbook or are they from the offensive coordinator there in Atlanta? I thought we would see plays from when he was offensive coordinator in Tennessee because that was definitely his playbook
The main thing for me is just knowing if this is the new stuff or old stuff. When watching breakdowns of Canada’s offense I hated when they’d say we were using old concepts that don’t work anymore and our successful plays were because the defense screwed up and not that we schemed guys open.
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't this Dave Ragone's offense? Can you break down Smith's offense from his OC days at Tennessee for direct reflection?
Wouldn’t the first play you show here be out of 13 personnel? Because you have pits, the tight end on the end of the line and the tight end in the backfield with Bijan split out wide?
OC decisions are an important part of every squads success. YET >2xs as important are decisions a QB makes on any given OC passing play choice.... SIGN MR2!
@@thekingmagnum7331 EVERY WINNING offense is a better fit for Mason Rudolph... Unless the question is... What one is set up for the OCCASIONAL 4th quarter GWD or 4QC? Then; "Jenny Pick your injury" is the guy.
This makes me feel so much better about the decision at oc, BUT this type of play will not work for Kenny Pickett he has zero vision fields would dominate under this play call.
It’s always a pleasure listening to your videos. I really admire your knowledge of football and the way you break things down. Sometimes I listen to the two stooges Noah and Stephen who you use to team with. You are way out of their league and I am glad you got away from them.
So he didn't design the offense. He just called the plays? Are you honestly saying that he designed the offense and called the place and paid someone just to have the title of OC? Do you know how stupid that sounds?
@@ShawnDodrill I’m not one to argue but respectfully, you have no idea what you’re talking about. If you don’t believe me or what he’s said personally, there’s plenty of data and film that back this up.
Atlanta fan here a.smith had some good formations but the concepts are 💩..all routes will be in the same area relying on taller wrs to box out or stretch out for a catch…also wr2 will be dead sorry Dionte😢
Falcons fan here 😂😂😂😂😂😂, y’all about to be so disappointed. Never scored over 30 in three seasons , out coached in most games , three receivers in the same area all the time 😂😂😂 , 4th down warrior lol😂, y’all enjoy
As a pure OC he actually performed at a very high level in Tennessee. I think the workload as HC was too overwhelming for him and it caused his play calling to struggle. It’s not a sexy hire, but if the play calling duties and playbook are his singular focus I believe he actually brings a lot to the table. Was not happy at the time of the news, but as the days have gone on I’m warming up to him a bit.
@@EzBHP NO…. He’s stubborn and not a great play caller he wasn’t over his head he was just flat out wrong on a lot of decisions, he thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room
Let me know if you all would like to see more stuff like this on Smith’s offense.
From one ky guy to another... you have by far the best all 22 videos on TH-cam! Keep it up!
Heard titans were 7th in passing tds that year lets look into how smith passes it into the end zone either way good vid my man
Keep'em coming
Great job yes please 😁
Awesome vid. Would absolutely love to see more!
It's good to get an insight into the kind of offense to expect, and it may calm the flutter that a lot of Steelers fans are experiencing.
its good knowing moreso what to expect from Smith, so yes. for sure keep em comin. always love the content and look forward to it 💪
Thank you!
@@Steelers_DB thank you fr you are one of very few i got set to 'all' 🖤💛
With Atlanta..he did come up with some dope formations
Lol I live here in Atlanta and have been one of the biggest Falcons fans all my life... Smith was trash at play calling here man. I'm sorry to say that and maybe he'll do better as oc than a hc but what we got here was absolute hell for 3 yrs n im sooooooooo glad he's gone! Good luck
I straight up lost it when he had our TE 2 throw to our TE 3 and had our TE 1 blocking in the redzone.@@antoniojames3617
@@antoniojames3617 The Falcons have always sucked
@chriscaswell1212 OK, and lol?! He still trash! You'll see 😂
@@antoniojames3617he was bad for u guys but he was actually a good play caller for the titans just probably needed more experience
Falcons fan here... y'all got a good coach.
Please realize that most fans don't understand football from a schematic standpoint.
Great breakdown. Please breakdown more of Smith's offense!
Thanks!
Good break down. Kenny would check down every time to Bijan.
Thanks again would enjoy more breakdowns
Noted!
Great job explaining
Thanks!
I’d like to see more of his offense when he was only the OC with the titans
these types of vids are so cool, Thanks.
Liked the video would like to see some of smiths run concepts maybe some run to pass ratio?
Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks for breaking this down. Most commentators don't do this. They just talk and seemingly have very little football knowledge. 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, hope you do some deeper dives!
Thanks! Will do!
Good work! I like it! Keep it coming!
Thanks!
33k views, nice!! Looks like you got some algorithm love finally! Everybody wants to know what to expect from Arthur Smith
Heck yeah. Appreciate you!
excellent video !!! we thank you and want more !!!! more more
On it!

Enjoyed this! I know very little about Smith’s offense other than some high level article. Keep these videos coming if possible and thank you!
Your channel is the only thing giving me motivation to watch Steelers content/film rn after the end of the season lol
I appreciate that
Would love to see some stuff on his time in Tennessee, particularly how he got the best out of an average quarterback like Tannehill, and how ne blocked up the running game. I know we don't really have the personnel to run outside zone, but he is reportedly well versed with mixing up inside zone and some man blocking, duo, etc.
Will do some run game stuff but he’s about as heavy as you can be on the wide zone stuff.
Yea, outside zone was a staple in Tennessee for a LONG time, Munchak tried to implement it when he got to Pittsburgh, but scrapped it and just did inside zone mixed with other concepts, I expect Smith to do the same, especially with the talk recently from Art about adapting your scheme to fit the players you have
That's a good film breakdown.
hi coach yes please to more breakdowns on smiths O
Awesome please keep it coming
More to come!
As a falcons fan, good breakdown. Steelers got a good OC for their roster. Don't worry about tight end use. The biggest question mark is QB, but honestly he wasn't given a chance in Atlanta. Fired going into the one off-season you could argue being weak at QB aligns with options. Just my opinion. Think this will work out really well with Pat
Really appreciate the feedback!
To sum it up 50 50 % chance good move by Pittsburgh
You gotta love the Play action
100%
Love this stuff! Thanks you!
Glad you enjoy it!
Great Video - Keep it up !!!!
Thank you!
Yea bring it on my man need to know more on him
Definitely quality route scheming.
Can you get into his red zone offense? Seems to be very efficient
Exactly 💯. I wanna see his red zone schemes. Tomlin made it a point that he wants to see more points.
would love more of this type of film for sure
I'm very interested to see your take on if there's any opportunities for Calvin Austin III in Smith's system or will he have been a squandered pick.
Yes! More of these, many more but carefully cause some of the teams they gotta play might be watching lol
Ok my question is, are these plays his playbook or are they from the offensive coordinator there in Atlanta? I thought we would see plays from when he was offensive coordinator in Tennessee because that was definitely his playbook
My sentiments exactly
Its the same offense. He was the play caller.
Clicked this vid thinking it was the titans and its the falcons lol threw me all the way off
DB! My only concern is block execution. A QB can perform miracles with a little time.
The main thing for me is just knowing if this is the new stuff or old stuff. When watching breakdowns of Canada’s offense I hated when they’d say we were using old concepts that don’t work anymore and our successful plays were because the defense screwed up and not that we schemed guys open.
Yes you did a good job!
Thanks
We got the right players!!!! Hands down
What I want to find out is what does he do when they cannot run the football. Does he have the type of passing scheme that can also free up the run???
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't this Dave Ragone's offense? Can you break down Smith's offense from his OC days at Tennessee for direct reflection?
Same offense
I like it
Yes I would love to see more film but I want to see when he was the OC not the head coach
Same offense.
Oh so that explains why the Atlanta falcons were better than the Tennessee Titans 3 years prior?? That makes no sense. Atlanta sucks
Truthfully I would like to see his time in tennessee.
Wouldn’t the first play you show here be out of 13 personnel? Because you have pits, the tight end on the end of the line and the tight end in the backfield with Bijan split out wide?

Do you think this a better offensive style for Mason or Kenny?
Mason
@@thekingmagnum7331 EVERY WINNING offense is a better fit for Mason Rudolph...

Then; "Jenny Pick your injury" is the guy.
I’m not sure those play are open in Picketts eyes. These are the plays he will not throw that leads to him not being good.
❤
yes more
Willing to give buddy a chance. But this hire was down right lazy.
But I’m riding with my guys no matter what
This makes me feel so much better about the decision at oc, BUT this type of play will not work for Kenny Pickett he has zero vision fields would dominate under this play call.

Come on man!!!
He was not the OC at Atlanta.
You need to look at some old Tennessee Titans video
It’s his offense… he was the play caller… lol
Oh he was the OC and the head coach?
@@ShawnDodrill they had an OC by title but Smith was the play caller all three seasons. Same offense.
So he didn't design the offense. He just called the plays?

I just think those concepts work better in the AFC. Atlanta plays against teams who throw the ball a lot more than they run.
@@sleepinglady2778 you might be right but the route pairings aren’t innovative by any means more so pre meditated based on
Also maybe pitts and hijab aren’t the playmakers they were in college
