Arthur Smith entered his second season as the Atlanta Falcons\u2019 head coach with no real expectations, which is a red flag for a head coach in his second year. Luckily for Smith, outside of the spotlight and pretty much off the news map, no one really noticed the Falcons finishing with a losing record once again, thanks to some dismal offensive play, especially at quarterback from then starter Marcus Mariota.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In spite of that, the NFC South Championship, along with the automatic playoff bid that came with it, was attainable all the way up until Week 18. Needless to say, Smith still didn\u2019t make it happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atlanta is getting a lot of love heading into this year\u2019s campaign. Presently Arthur Smith is the favorite to be named the Coach of the Year<\/a> which I find a tad premature. Other than a handful of skill players, I don\u2019t see a lot to like about this Falcons squad and instead of \u201cCoach of the Year,\u201d I think Smith has a much better chance at being the first head coach fired<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023-23 Win Prediction:<\/strong> 6-11<\/p>\n\n\n\n
