Geno Smith

Geno Smith completed 33-of-44 passes for 327 yards and a touchdown in the Seahawks’ 23-20, Week 2 overtime win over the Patriots.

Smith came alive after his sleepy opener, clearing 150 yards both before and after halftime. He locked onto both DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba for 10-plus receptions, and moved the chains a few times with his legs. His score was a 56-yarder where he recognized a coverage bust on Metcalf’s side of the field. It must be said that Smith was victimized by at least 3-4 drops, including two from Metcalf. The Seahawks have had two surprisingly competitive games against mediocre teams the first two weeks, so throwing will probably remain a theme. Week 3 could depend on how much Dolphins backup Skylar Thompson is able to match blows.
