I respect Geno and I’m happy for him. Often time the NFL puts these guys in impossible situations, don’t use the players correctly, don’t put a team around them, don’t give them time to develop, etc.

[@magicrhymesx]

To me one major lesson of Geno’s story is that it can take YEARS for a player to develop enough to be successful in the NFL. I feel like too many quarterbacks get drafted and are expected to perform at an elite level right away and it just doesn’t work well for most. More quarterbacks need to have the time to develop before they become starters.

[@Akronkangaroo]

Facts

[@keeplearning4L]

also adequate and effective coaching and schemes!

[@Nobody-su9km]

To me the major lesson is: your QB can throw two ints per game, you still gonna win if you have actual skill position players.

[@JackRabbit5402]

He did sit behind Russell Wilson for awhile and does kinda have a similar playstyle now

[@nelspas0191]

Facts. That’s why I hate when people crap on players after a bad rookie year.

[@piranhasforscissors]

Before the 2022 season started, I predicted the Seahawks to finish with the worst record in the NFL. It wasn't a personal or biased prediction, it was just how I felt. Geno made me eat those words. I am so proud of him and what he's done at this stage of his career. He deserves all the credit in the world.

[@crungefactory]

Good thing reality doesn't care how we feel. 😎

[@RainmakerXBooty]

Yeah it was completely unexpected. Pete Carroll proved himself as a hall of fame coach with that season too, he deserves credit for coaching up a team of mostly unknowns or forgotten players into a playoff team.

[@piranhasforscissors]

@christiandelaconcha4161 I am not a Seahawks fan [go Ravens], but I've always thought highly of Pete Carroll. I just felt with that QB room he couldn't do much. I was wrong, but that's kind of the point.

[@cnote7408]

Geno is the truth!

[@jimc.goodfellas226]

NFL Films is a treasure

[@TheAmbitiousFilms]

Being a Seahawks fan, this really got to me. Because I still have my person struggles in life. Geno Smith truly is an inspiration. I’m so proud of him with the way he turned his career around. And Pete Carroll deserves a lot of credit for helping him regain his confidence. One of the best comeback stories in NFL history. Keep going Geno!! Go Hawks!!

[@tpeezy1010]

We love our city. And we’re lucky we have Geno. Thank you Charissa. Awesome interview.

[@bobbertee5945]

As a Jet fan, i cant help but feel good for Geno....

[@TechnicalHotDog]

Man, Geno on the 2023 Jets would be a beast too

[@scottyritchie93]

Geno is incredibly humble & that's what I like the most about him. At no point has he ever had an "it's all about me" attitude like Russ did.

[@_Obsessedsports]

Geno is such an inspirational person and he has the acumen and talent to back it up. How can you not love this guy?

[@ZajDabNeeg4SHO]

Geno may not be the best quarterback, he isn't the most athletic, he isn't the smartest, but he is the most resilient. His story, his journey and his leadership has earned him the right to be our starting QB, and when he comes to the podium after every game, he does not read any media script, he doesn't try to butter the situation, he says it as it is, and for some reason he makes me believe!

[@kevincoates5066]

Geno is a really good passer,ive seen him make throws that id expect him to over throw or throw a pick,

[@kylehamadyk738]

Why isn’t Pete Carroll ever in talk for coach of the year? Honestly if there’s 2 Coaches I would want to play for ever would be Pete Carroll and my team the Steelers Mike Tomlin… There’s is nothing these 2 men have not seen in the game of football. Also I do hope Geno brings success to Seattle and people that like them hope they agree too..

[@briane173]

As is usually the case, the couch quarterbacks out there wanna rag on Pete for this one thing that happened when he left USC or one disastrous play in a Super Bowl; he loses a game and it's like "Oh Pete's lost it, fire him and get somebody younger, blah blah blah." No one wants to talk about how loved and respected he is in the locker room and how damn near every player in the NFL wants to play under his program, because he knows how to get the best out of every individual player no matter what their position or what stage of their career they're in. If you simply measure the sustained overall success of the Seahawks throughout Pete's tenure, he's racked up a resume that is every bit as good as Bill Belichick's, without the reputation as a tyrant. There's "The Patriot Way" and then there is "The Pete Way," which in reality is "The Players' Way," because he frees his players to be themselves on the field and play with abandon and have fun doing it. Pete treats his players like the professionals they are, and takes care of them -- "loves 'em up," as he likes to say. When Paul Allen hired Pete I was skeptical too; that vanished by his 3rd season. And what he's done for Geno after cutting Russell Wilson loose is why players love him. Pete always believed in Geno and as long as he continued to compete he'd give Geno his chance; and Geno paid Pete back with a stellar season as the starter. He's been a little bumpy this year but I remain confident he'll be able to figure it out, as long as he lets Pete coach him and he stays out of his own head too much. Compete, but HAVE FUN, Geno; HAVE FUN and let fortune come to _you._ You don't have to try to make every pass play a home run; just trust what you see and let the opportunity present _itself._ We're with ya 100% bruh. Prayin' you have a monster game against the Ravens tomorrow.

[@JamesGorman-vy9zx]

As a Seahawks fan, I would have to say on paper Pete’s resume doesn’t come close to Belichick’s. ON PAPER. That being said, I think Belichick is the most overrated head coach in the history of the nfl. Brady made that man. It was Brady picking apart defenses on his own. I think we have just about proven that Belichick isn’t that great and Pete may be a better coach all together being able to get the most out of his players and turn nothing into something.

[@89volvowithlazers]

[@kyperactive]

Idk if I wanna play for the current ugly football Steelers... but the Seahawks, 100%.

[@_SayitAintSo]

i assume because the seahawks havent been one of the best teams for a decent minute and usually thats how it works. except for 2020. last time he was in was like 2018

A difference between Geno and Rus. Russ says he wants to go to a city that wins. Geno says he's grateful for a city to believe in him.

[@Nobody-su9km]

@@NotaThing13 Russ dedicated his life for seattle both on and off the field, yet all y'all gave back to him was hate, calling him fake, game manager, carried by the lob, corny, that every teammate hated him and blah blah blah blah. He made the second most winning organization in The 2010s decade and y'all spit on his face year after year, next time you want to point the finger at someone point at your self, most fake and disrespectful fanbase in sports. He is currently top 4 on QBs this season while Geno is struggling with a team of elite players to support him. Good luck and enjoying average QB play for the next 10+ years.

[@IHateNicolasCage]

Geno stuck around and just kept hanging on. He is no longer the Jets bust that got punched in the face. He’s the guy with the $100M contract.

[@HardCold-Alquan]

I like his story. He was all but done and made into a laughing stock in NY. He DID NOT look as if he knew what he was doing, but in Seattle, he looked good. he may have gotten nervous towards the end of his first few games as a starter, but he looked. Rex Ryan may have hated him and liked that he got his jaw broken and costing him his job - but he pulled through that as well. Seattle re-signed him and he is doing his thing. Now, we all know that worse QBs when he was wit The Jets, had gotten more time to turn into someone than he did, but some of us knows how it goes.

Its good to have a qb who puts team first not glory. Someone who is humble and realizes teams win games not individual players. alot of this teams success is Not just because of Genos play but because of Genos team first attitude (and team friendly contract). Alot of qbs never figure that out.
