Arthur Smith and Titans offense are excelling

Sheil Kapadia cites TruMedia’s EPA model in highlighting Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith as a coach with much to gain during the final stretch of the season…

“He’s your favorite football hipster’s favorite offensive coordinator — and for good reason. After last season’s impressive performance, the Titans’ offense is even better in 2020, ranking second behind only the Chiefs in TruMedia’s Expected Points Added (EPA) model. Tennessee leans on a heavy dose of Derrick Henry, play-action with Ryan Tannehill and yards after the catch with A.J. Brown. Yes, Smith has talent at his disposal, but he’s done a brilliant job of maximizing that talent, putting players in position to succeed and consistently scheming explosive plays. With a strong finish (and he might not even need that), Smith could be interviewing for head-coaching jobs with owners looking for the NFL’s next great offensive play caller.”
