Falcons coach Arthur Smith shouldered the blame for the lackluster performance of the offense in the recent loss to the Jaguars.
Maybe he should utilize the guys they spent top 10 picks on the last 3 years.

Despite having top-tier talents like Kyle Pitts, Drake London, and Bijan Robinson on the team, the Falcons have struggled to produce a dynamic and explosive offense in the 2023 season.
In the last two games, Atlanta has failed to score more than 10 points. They suffered a 20-6 defeat against the Lions in Week 3 and a 23-7 loss to the Jaguars in London.
While Robinson has been a standout player, delivering impressive numbers with 137 scrimmage yards on 19 touches against the Jaguars, the overall offensive performance has been disappointing.
Coach Arthur Smith had expressed optimism during training camp, promising an entertaining offense.
However, he takes full responsibility for the team’s lack of success so far. It is now up to him to turn things around and ensure that the Falcons’ offense thrives.
“We have to do a better job, and it starts with me jump-starting the offense early,” Smith said after Sunday’s loss, via the team’s official website. “We put ourselves in the hole again, and we can’t turn the ball over. … You’re going to make life harder on yourself.”
