Arthur Smith is a bit of an enigma; overachieved with the Titans, was a large part of their success and seemingly resurrected Tannehill's career. Flip side is Smith then went on to underachieve with the Falcons and valued players like Allegier and Jonnu Smith over top 10 picks Bijan and Pitts. Never was able to really utilize the talent that Atlanta has accumulated, the Falcons should be a pretty fun offensive team albeit with not the best talent under center.
More puzzling is that Smith didn't have a problem leaning on Henry/Hopkins in Tennessee. Some of the blame could be with Pitts/Bijan/London but who knows. Interesting hire for Pittsburgh, I can envision Pickens asking for a trade sometime next year.
