The Rise, Fall and Rise Again of Geno Smith

[@Commonlogicguy]

Geno’a story is the reason why I am a sea hawk fan despite not living in Seattle.

[@JustFootball]

This is why sport is the best

@@Commonlogicguy I've been a Seahawks fan since inception and I've never been to Seattle at all . Love me some Seahawks win or lose .

[@nickelnoserestos2598]

I'm enjoying Geno as our QB.. I hope he's with us for years to come..

[@JustFootball]

He won't be going anywhere if he continues playing like this!

[@Aspetic.21]

Man I know geno is great but if we could draft a qb, let him sit behind geno, it could be the next Patrick mahomes

[@tipring6956]

Geno may be 33, but given the 7-8 yrs as a backup, his body hasn't seen as much mileage as most...so hopefully he has a good number of productive years yet ahead of him in league.

[@JustFootball]

Yeah absolutely, he can last for sure

[@darkrider962]

He just turned 34 but yeah.

[@OliOngNFL]

Man it sucks to say this as a 9er fan, but Geno has it. When given a clean pocket, he is one of the best atm. Damn 😂

[@JustFootball]

Yep fair analysis. Some good QBs in your division!

[@darkrider962]

Yeah but he still has yet to beat the 49er's one single time in his career with the Seahawks. I'm a 'Hawks fan and I need to see him step up and be able to beat the 9er's!

[@JustFootball]

@@darkrider962 This is a good point. Purdy owns that head to head right now

[@atticuslanderholm1516]

@@darkrider962the SEAHAWKS have yet to beat the 49ers since. Not him. It’s tough to beat the 49ers with a bottom five o line and run defense

[@phillipisayev1273]

Even when he doesn’t have a clean pocket he’s fantastic at evading pressure.

[@rodrigodelamacorra6219]

Both, this channel and Geno deserve more praise!!

[@JustFootball]

Very kind, thank you! Hope you've subscribed and are ready for our next one 😉

[@gohawks3571]

I love my Geno! Despite having a heart attack once in a while, Geno is my guy, was my guy, will be my guy. Screw those 'fans" that wanna bench him. Geno all the way baby!!! GO HAWKS!💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚

[@s.williamc.]

The sky’s the limit for Geno Smith! The best is yet to come for Geno and the Seattle Seahawks. Geno is an elite passer, it looks like the Seahawks O-line is about to get healthy and when it does Geno and with all the amazing weapons the Hawks have on offense, and defense I believe they are going to shock the NFL.

[@JustFootball]

Do you feel they're missing anything right now?

[@gohawks3571]

​@@JustFootballWe're in a year of formation, having all new coaches. They are getting organized and testing all the guys. This is not a year where we're realistically looking at the Superbowl. We are getting sorted out. Geno is the cornerstone, and we have great parts. I am so happy, because I felt like talent was getting wasted. What we are this year is simply infancy compared to what is coming (muahHaHaHaHa!) Thanks for the video! Go Geno & GO HAWKS!!! 💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚

[@JustFootball]

@@gohawks3571 Haha love to hear it! And you're welcome!

[@fhedrickcaoili]

his story always gets me emotional man🥲

[@JustFootball]

Yeah I am not surprised, what a guy!

[@chooch027]

There are so many Hawks fans that mercilessly hate on Geno. I don't get it. He has bad games every once in a while like any other player but he deserves nothing but praise overall from us fans.

[@TCVHC1]

Those aren't true seahawks fans. Same fans who think DK is a liability and think offensive lineman have 0 impact in a game

[@JustFootball]

People still doubt him!?

[@damian7894]

I had to leave Seahawks pages bc those are the true haters

[@chooch027]

@@JustFootball Yeah, I know. Kinda ludacris but I come across folks on the regular on socials saying they want to put in Lock or Howell over Geno. C'mon, when our QB is setting records and dodging sacks like he does you wanna bench him?!

[@brohanfromrohan5771]

Because he's 23-21 with them. Seattle is essentially a .500 team with Geno as their QB. At what point do you want them to be a serious contender for another SB run?

[@SunTzu7-cg6nq]

I’ve been fortunate enough to go to a few games in Lumen field when Geno has been starting. I watched Geno and it was the things that happened when he wasn’t on the field that really stuck out to me. When special teams would be coming off the field Geno would be there and saying good job or something to that effect. He would do the same with his oline between drives. NFL Films has captured some of this but I know Geno does stuff like this throughout the game and it’s genuine. I have been beyond impressed.

[@JustFootball]

That's a leader right there!

[@kiwi5596]

As a hawks fan I fucking love geno 💙💚

[@JustFootball]

I am not surprised!

[@lovehurtslowkey]

holy fuck I am in awe. This is the greatest, saddest shit i’ve ever watched. As a seahawks fan I’m speechless. His story is one of those you have to make a movie about. He leads the league and is well off to a 3rd pro bowl. If you told me 5 years ago geno smith would be my starting qb bringing us to the playoffs and winning comeback player of the year. I’d call you insane. Well done on the video bro. God Bless you Geno. Godspeed

[@JustFootball]

Thank you mate, appreciate it. And it is a hell of a story. Geno is a legend!

[@Diiixiiinormus]

I’ve always held the belief that geno isn’t the problem. We relied on Wilson and his mobility to basically be our o line FOR YEARS. Finally getting some protection on this team, and people see geno has one of the more accurate and pretty balls (no diddy) I’ve personally seen on tv.

[@JustFootball]

No Diddy... 🤣

[@justmyopinion7594]

Well done. Anyone who hates on Geno are stuck with preconceived notions from his New York jets days and clearly don’t watch Seahawk games

[@JustFootball]

This is true!

[@einundsiebenziger5488]

Anyone who hates (...) is* stuck (...) and clearly doesn't* watch ...

[@andrewd5139]

My favorite thing about geno is that he can fit the ball in tight spaces. Hes a first rounder for a reason but had bad luck on bad teams

[@JustFootball]

The Jets are the ultimate QB killer!

[@stilesslosson7403]

All I know is we love Geno in Seattle!!!

[@JustFootball]

He's at home in Seattle! 🙏

[@einundsiebenziger5488]

This guy can throw some really beautiful deep balls, but I'm still waiting for him to throw three or more TDs in one game.

[@JustFootball]

It will come...

[@snbpro1944]

It genuinely blows my mind on how Seahawks fans hate on Geno Smith. Geno is genuinely one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL and his stats over the last few years for the Seahawks prove it. Geno has one it takes to be a top tier QB.

[@JustFootball]

Yeah you won't here any disagreements from us at Just Football! Guys a stud

Rise again? He's on pace for 19 TDs, which is less than last year, and 14 INTs, which is more than last year. Yards don't mean shit if you can't score and turn the ball over constantly. Does anyone realize his record with Seattle is 23-21?

[@JustFootball]

You wouldn't say he has enjoyed a rise over the last few seasons...?

[@brohanfromrohan5771]

@@JustFootball, I'd say he's had one feel good year his first year starting with Seattle, then he's been middle of the road since.

[@ACE-sx8mo]

Geno's continued success will obviously depend on the quality of his offensive line. After years of a terrible OL, the Seahawks finally invested in quality linemen, but they've spent too much time on the injury list.

[@JustFootball]

Agreed, that has to be the next area of investment

[@MegaTriumph1]

Who is Geno Smith does he work for Safeway groceries or a Walgreens Pharmacy or at Jack in the Box as head Chef. Yes Geno is all that he's really the Seahawks QB. Kind of unbelievable that somehow Geno snagged a job with the Seahawks.

[@JustFootball]

One hell of an upgrade!

[@evanvargas3170]

Crazy how Geno still gets shit on by fans and media both nationally and locally. The dudes been balling since Seattle gave him a chance. One of the main reasons Seattle has been able to remain a decent team after the Russ trade.

Jesus had 12 disciples. So if GS was the reincarnation of JC, the Seahawks would permanently be flagged for illegal formation (too many men on the field).

[@dontsupportrats4089]

Geno didn't beat Locke for the starter role lol. That was just Pete and his "always compete" mantra. They knew before they traded Wilson off that Geno would be the starter. Or they would never have traded him.

Love this view on it! Pete was so good.

@@Monarch-lf7yc No. They were supposed to split the games pre season, and locke got C. and looked like crap. Just like he did in Denver. Geno was the planned starter or at the very least they knew he could be the starter or they NEVER would have traded. It's a Billion dollar business. Do you think they did the trade on the hopes Locke was the starter? That simply isn't how big business works.
