Film Room: Steelers OC Arthur Smith's Windback Counter Run Concept 

If Jaylen was doing that in the same concept from Canada’s offense, imagine what he’ll do in Smiths 🔥🔥🔥

Love these breakdowns DB!

I can totally see heyward motioning from in-line TE to the FB role. His versatility is underrated especially with that dawg in him

Still doesn't feel real that we're about to enter a new season with an actual NFL OC and QB. It's so exciting man

Great analysis. Can’t wait for this season!!

At the 9:36 mark, if the QB throws it to London, that could've been a td. Lets hope that Russ will read well and make those throws.

You should consider investing a little bit of time into figuring out how you can quickly draw and erase on the film as you're speaking. It's evident that you know your stuff so I think adding a touch like that could really elevate these videos for you. Either way, you've earned my sub! Look forward to hearing your takes throughout the season.

Man, great break down boss, pumped to see this in action... Thank you! 2 questions. Hollins is ALONE on that last play. Because of the immediateness of that drift route, can that even be a read, or do you have to read the drift all the way because of how quick that closes? I could see Wilson taking that shot. Also, with the athletic ability of the tackles, could you see Arthur using them as the puller and leaving the wr/te play side to help create explosive plays?

Great stuff. Thanks for posting.

Less than two weeks to training camp!

On that first play action play u showed the WR on the left side busted WIDE OPEN 😳lol Damn Ridder missed an east Tuddie lol

Thanks for breaking this down. ❤

Najee is going to absolutely feast on. He’s been missing heavy zone scheme ever since leaving bama.

I think Jaylen is going to excel in Smith's offense. I have no doubts that Naj will get his too, but much of what I have seen has Jaylen written all over it.

Muth and Washington are gonna make that block on the first play. I don’t think this type of blocking comes easy. How long do you think it’ll take for the OL to gel?

Great video as always db. You mentioned that the Mack Hollins role will need to be filled by someone and I feel like Pruitt is the best answer. We don’t have that bigger body slot guy that can block like Allen Robinson or juju

Great content bro 👍🏽

Gotta break down linebackers and dbs next!!!!

6:07 this wasn’t a jumbo package it was an unbalanced formation with a TE lined up as LT and the LT on the end of the line replacing the TEs spot in the formation

I forget the guys name but we do have a FB on the roster right now

My favorite Steelers brake down podcast this and the one with cris Carter

So which RB is best for this offense? And what type of o-linemen are ideal for this?

DB the man, learn a lot from you my friend.

Jack Colletto is going to turn heads this season.

Arthur Smiths' play designs are definitely more creative than the last guys'.....what was his name, again?

The krazy thing is fields would have 100 yard games with this scheme

This concept makes it seem like Najee won’t be the primary back in this backfield because it requires vision and Speed

Hey can you tell me how to get film like this?

good concept for warren not so much for najee...najee has to be north south run up the middle to be successful

I can see Jaylen adding some wrinkles to this scheme, he act as the "full back" but then option out into a screen pass.

Going to be great watching Pickens NOT block in a running offense.

Cannot wait to see what the (ex-Falcon HC) 7-10 Arthur Smith brings . He is coming from ONLY division of the #8 in NFL without double digit victories. NFL division where #9 wins captured the division title ('23); Big news because #8 wins did it the year prior ('22) ... NEITHER were Arthur Smith's teams.... Arthur Smith couldn't even manage a runner up campaign in that "WORST division". He logged 3rd place all #3 yrs. NFC South over Arthur Smiths time there.... #3 years & #4 teams nets #12 campaigns.. In said #3 yrs. only one single campaign with double digit victories. Just a quick contrast with AFC North where Arthur Smith landed... Same #12 Campaigns, NFC South: #3 playoff teams (IF parity & no demand division winner ...would only be #1) AFC North: ONLY #3 sub 500 records, #6 double digit victory; #7 playoff participants seven to one ratio. The 4th place squad from AFC North would have WON the AFC south division in the '23 season. So we are conditioned to believe he will find success after transitioning from the WORST division into the very best division. SURE...

Very nice run plays but it takes a lot of OL choreography and is an incorrect strategy with 2 rookies and our sophomore slump player switching sides from last year.

hi coach sup?

It will all be for not. As a falcons fan, yes you will get a few dominant run games and break some big ones. But you have to have rhythm, balance, and urgency as a play caller, and smith has none of the above. Absolutely trash as a play caller. Perhaps a better run game coordinator or tight ends coach. I will never get over the three years of frustration in Atlanta.
