Seattle quarterback Geno Smith promises to check down if necessary against 49ers’ top-ranked defense.
For years, Russell Wilson tortured the 49ers by going off schedule, creating something out of nothing and delivering another win for the Seattle Seahawks.
Although Smith had his first game with two interceptions last Sunday in a 30-24 loss to Carolina, it’s still been a breakout season at age 32 after starting five games in six years as a backup for the Jets, Giants, Chargers and Seahawks. The first meeting in Week 2 was a turning point for both teams. For the 49ers, it meant their transition to Trey Lance as the starting quarterback was aborted when the second-year player, with Smith completing 24 of 30 passes but for only 197 yards and an interception by Tashaun Gipson off a deflection from Talanoa Hufanga. After that game, coach Pete Carroll authorized offensive coordinator Shane Waldron to turn the offense loose.
