The Seahawks intend to release quarterback Geno Smith shortly so he can continue to produce more yards and points. Even if the solution falls under the category of Captain Obvious, Smith is aware of what needs to be done.
On Thursday, Smith told reporters, "We need to score." We need to score, continue drives, create more plays and opportunities, and, for the most part, just finish drives.
The deep passing game has drawn a great deal of criticism. What should they do to remedy it?
Until they start to play us more in man coverage and up in our faces, Smith added, "We are just going to take what they give us." "Trying to air things out just for the purpose of doing so doesn't make any sense. I'll always attempt to be offensively effective by taking what they give us. Being effective and moving the ball is the essential objective in order to score.
Yes, Smith answered, "I think there will be chances. "We have two games left in the season, and it will be a long one, but I think there will be more chances. That comes with various game scenarios and circumstances. I only doubt that we have encountered that circumstance frequently. As I previously stated, we will take advantage of shooting opportunities when they arise. We attempted a shot in the most recent game, but it was called back. We need to be effective and move the chains if they keep playing us off and soft, and we are okay doing that.
According to Smith, he hasn't been passing up big-play opportunities to be safe. He was also questioned about if he believed the coaching staff was holding him back.
Smith responded, "That's really a matter for the coach, but I haven't felt hampered." "I believe we are once again keeping to schedule and doing what it takes to play complimentary football and be an effective football team. We are not attempting to throw the ball into double coverage out there. We will be effective and do whatever it takes to score, whether that means throwing the ball deep, short, or immediately because we have excellent men and they run terrific routes. To score points for the scoreboard. The essential thing, in my opinion, is that whether the game is long or short, it doesn't matter when you earn points since it doesn't matter when you don't.
He is correct, but the pressure will only increase, especially with receivers like DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett around. They must use those individuals who are "deep, short, or intermediate," as Smith put it. They also have to win points.
If they don't, Drew Lock can easily provide a spark.
