Welcome to Friday. It’s the weekend. Kick your shoes off, relax, hug somebody that loves you. Also, parts of the Geno situation have been answered. After today’s introductory press conferences with, amongst others, new OC Ryan Grubb, it seems obvious that he likes Geno Smith as QB1. In turn, Mike Macdonald also likes King Gene, and logic would suggest John Schneider feels the same. How do you feel about it? How does it make you feel seeing as that Geno Smith is still the QB1 for the Seattle Seahawks? Personally, I love #7 and I think he will continue to grow next season. I smell play-offs. Dive into the links below, join the discourse, and share your opinions.
