Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald spoke to the media on Wednesday, and all indicators point out that Geno Smith is trending in the suitable route.
“He feels good”, Macdonald mentioned, indicating he’s gone by way of walkthroughs and can follow in a “important capability”
The necessary disclaimer at this level of the season is that this may occasionally or might not have something to do with Geno Smith’s knee truly doing any therapeutic. It’s win or die mode for the Seahawks right here on out, and Sam Howell was statistically a hindrance to Seattle’s try to maneuver the ball ahead final Sunday.
DK Metcalf additionally spoke to the toughness and warrior mentality of his quarterback in Wednesday’s feedback.
It’s a house recreation with every little thing to lose, so whereas Smith gained’t be formally introduced as starter for the time being, I’d count on it’s him. I count on it nonetheless hurts. And for the primary time this season, Ryan Grubb’s full lack of bootleg playcalls or the rest to get Geno on the transfer will lastly match the offense.
The saving grace for the Seahawks right here is that they face a Minnesota Vikings staff who didn’t look stellar in opposition to a very horrible Chicago Bears staff. I had figured the Inexperienced Bay Packers is perhaps the extra winnable of those consecutive video games in opposition to the NFC North, however now it’s time to see what a decently wholesome staff and banged up Geno Smith can do in opposition to the Vikings to maintain the season afloat.
