Here's how Geno Smith, playing behind a makeshift line, still had a banner day in Detroit. Who else is rising and falling in the NFC West?
He finished 32-of-41 for 328 yards, with two touchdown passes and no interceptions for a 116.3 passer rating. He completed passes to nine different receivers and was sacked just once behind a makeshift offensive line.
According to Next Gen Stats, Smith was 13-of-20 for 103 yards with a touchdown and just five quarterback pressures when either Cross or Lucas was in the game in the Week 1 loss against the Rams. However, with both tackles out against L.A., Smith was 3-of-6 for nine yards, with four quarterback pressures and two sacks.
"You saw us move the football all around with the quarterback and the actions and stuff," coach Pete Carroll told reporters this week."I just thought they took advantage of the stuff that made it a game that we could really be highly productive."
