Geno Smith went from an NFL afterthought to prime-time hero to … poet?
That’s how smooth the Seattle quarterback was with his words following the Seahawks’ dramatic 17-16 win over the Broncos on Monday night. The home crowd in Seattle was fired up all night for the return of Russell Wilson, who was making his Denver debut. The Seahawks never trailed, leaning on an opportunistic defense and an efficient Smith to stay one step ahead. The Broncos attempted a 64-yard field goal in the final seconds, but Brandon McManus pulled his kick wide left.
