Valiant in defeat, Geno Smith nominated for Air Player of the Week again

For the third time this season, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is up for the FedEx Air Player of the Week honor.

In a losing effort against the Dallas Cowboys, Smith was 23/41 for 334 yards, 3 touchdowns, 1 rushing touchdown, and 1 interception. It’s the most passing yards the Cowboys defense has allowed all season, and Geno pulled this off despite a pressure rate of 54%. Even Micah Parsons was impressed.

I don’t think people realize how insane this is! https://t.co/x3EvHs25Ad

Geno previously won Air Player of the Week in Seattle’s 37-31 overtime win over the Detroit Lions in Week 2, and had a nomination for his career-high 369 yards passing and game-winning drive in Week 10 versus the defensively-challenged Washington Commanders.
