Falcons coach Mike Smith has put the final touches on his staff by hiring defensive backs coach Joe Danna from the Dolphins and promoting Glenn Thomas to quarterbacks coach. Danna replaces Bob Bratkowski, who was named Jacksonville’s offensive coordinator after former Falcons offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey became the Jaguars’ head coach.

In new general manager Phil Emery’s introductory press conference, he grudgingly admitted that he had final say on the 53-man roster and ultimately the power to fire head coach Lovie Smith if necessary.

But the former Chiefs’ director of college scouting and one-time area scout for the Bears (1998-2004) was much more focused on working together as part of a team than in exercising the authority that comes with his new position.

“My mind is around moving us forward as a team,” the 53-year-old Emery said. “I have that authority, I have full control, but that’s not where my head is. My mind is on helping everybody in this building advance to where we are a consistent winner and a championship team.

It took five years of trying, but the Cardinals defense finally played the way Ken Whisenhunt envisioned. Now it’s up to Whisenhunt to fix an offense that’s been the main reason the team finished out of the playoffs for the past two seasons.

The defense showed great improvement under Ray Horton, the third defensive coordinator Whisenhunt hired in his five years in Arizona. The Cardinals led the league in third-down percentage and were second in red zone defense.

That unit must concentrate on giving up fewer big plays, but by the end of the season, it was forming into a dominating group.

The offense, meanwhile, hasn’t produced since Kurt Warner retired at the end of the 2009 season.
