I like Mike Smith and all, but he is a terrible play off coach. Granted, the 2 teams he's lost to in the play offs made it to the Super Bowl, but it's not like they lost close games. The Giants survived their early jitters and came alive, while Atlanta still needs to wake up.
My assessment is they need to solidify their pass rush and secondary this off season. And Mike Smith, take the points in a what was still close game. The first 4th down try I could see, but the 2nd failure was all you bud! Could've made it 10-6 instead of what turned into 17-2 after that debacle.
