MNF: Seahawks at Lions

Trainmaster : 9/30/2024 8:17 pm
We'll likely see if the 3-0 Seahawks are for real on the road versus the Lions.

Seahawks are the Giants next opponent, so some "scouting" interest.

I've gotten ripped on BBI for defending Geno Smith

He's had a nice career for himself. Another guy McAdoo was right on.
Seahawks had a soft road

first three games:

Broncos in Nix's first game.

Patriots.

Dolphins without Tua.

This game is a test.

Would be a shocker if they win. So not sure you can point this game as some barometer.

Geno Smith had somewhat of a revival as a starter in Seattle. He couldn't hold Eli Manning's jockstrap. There should be a meme about "McAdoo was right"

yeah if he ever gets in a more wide open offense i feel like he's going to have a year where he pushes for 2k yards. just an impossible cover 1 on 1 all game.

Crushed that kid when he jumped into the 1st row seats after his 78 yd TD. Got an unsportsmanlike flag and the lions fan kid looked hurt or pissed trying to get Williams off of him. I mean the kid really scrambled to try and get out from under him and didn’t look happy.
Sunday in Seattle should be a real hoot.

Given how careful the league is to avoid lawsuits I am honestly astounded that players are still allowed to jump up into the stands for exactly the reason you just talked about. It’s just way too much of a liability for a crazy fan to stab or injure a player or a player accidentally hurting someone landing on them

i think that's the situation where they go for 2 hoping to give themselves a chance to win with an XP on the road.

And now I'd settle for Jones improving into a one-legged version of Goff.

I feel like I'd prefer it if the next Giants head coach has a defensive background, but Ben Johnson would be pretty exciting too
Fun watching good QB play

Goff is on fire tonight
Geno also playing a good game

There are "injuries" and injuires that have a direct impact on the game. Seattle missing their entire frontline on Defense means a lot more than a team with 2 backup players being injured.

Yep. I thought Smith’s 2017 outing vs the Raiders was comparable in quality to Manning’s Late Period performance, and Smith had room to grow.
Geno rescued himself from obscurity  
Maijay : 10/1/2024 5:28 am : link
and it is good story that he he is their franchise quarterback. Seattle is another place that the Giants don't play well. This game could start the countdown for DJ's benching for good.
Good game  
Lines of Scrimmage : 10/1/2024 6:27 am : link
Seattle was missing a bunch of players and I like that HC. We will see how many make it back for Sunday. Enjoy Detroit's offense and its commitment to the run game and getting the QB under center more. Would at least want the Giants to look into Johnson if they move on from BD.

You were the only one. Geno threw a total of 9 passes the following 2 years between the Chargers and the Seahawks. He was a fill-in in 2021 with Seattle when he threw 95 passes. He had a big year in 2022 that he did not come close to matching in 2023 and so far this season he has thrown 4 td's and 4 picks. No sane person in 2017 would have thought he was the future.

He looks good in comparison to what came after Manning and what Seattle is getting for what they are paying. He's a decent qb at $25,000,000 per year. Right now we would take that in a heartbeat.
not sure what to think of Seattle...  
BillKo : 10/1/2024 11:08 am : link
...watching the game they looked pretty good.

Then you see the score - and I know the Lions are good.

Goff didn't throw an incomplete pass the entire game? What is with comp % this year?

Seattle has some good players and seem to play fast.

You should be ripped. He’s been solid. Not some world beater MCAdoo is so good he’s where ? mcAdoo sucked. You’re probably rne type of guy that now thinks Ray Handley was t that bad either. We deserve to suck w stupid fans
Smith is a non-factor

Yes then you see the score. And you also saw Gneo throw for nelary 400 yards. They put up 29 points. You know that they are good, though not great, right? What else are you questioning?

Well, since you are asking...their defense? Isn't there coach a defensive guy from BALT?

Yes I know they have injuries.

If oyu knwo they have injuires, thenwhy are you questioning?

Can you name one team in the NFL this past year that missed their entire frontline for entire game other than exhibition and looked good on Defense?
