After back-to-back Super Bowl wins and another appearance, the drop-off caught everyone off guard. Smith shrugged off the outside criticism, saying the focus is simply on playing ball and doing their jobs better.

A big boost comes from offensive coordinator Eric Biannamy rejoining the staff. Smith prays Biannamy's intense style and ability to push players both on and off the field.
