Following the Atlanta Falcons’ Week 2 win over the Green Bay Packers, head coach Arthur Smith made a point to compliment the crowd at Mercedes-Benz Stadium before he began his press conference.

“It means a lot for us to win at home and I thought our crowd has been unbelievable the last two games,” said Smith. “It really made a difference — our guys fed off that energy. It’s a shared experience when you get into it like that and you could feel them, especially on that last drive.”

Smith went on to talk about the confidence he had in the team coming into Sunday’s game.

“I had a lot of confidence that we would come out and execute pretty well today,” continued Smith. “Again, a lot of things we’re always going to have to work on. But we’ve got so much belief in our guys. You know you get in those critical situations — going for it on those fourth downs — and our guys keep swinging.”

Watch Smith’s full postgame press conference below, as shared on the team’s YouTube channel.
