Arthur Smith knows a lot has and will continue to change for him. The former Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator does not shy away from the fact.
Named the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons this past Friday, Smith will have many more responsibilities. He will call the plays for the Falcons offense in addition to being responsible for the rest of the roster. He will also be involved with constructing a roster and establishing a culture and an identity in the locker room.
The 38-year-old will begin all of those duties without the one player that made his offenses in Tennessee over the last two seasons so dangerous: Derrick Henry, who has led the league in rushing in each of the last two seasons and just became the eighth 2,000-yard rusher in league history. Smith admitted the obvious, and that is that there is no clone of Henry.
