The Seattle Seahawks have their first two quarters of football in the books and they are off to an unexpectedly strong start. The Seahawks lead the Broncos – who were favored by a touchdown – 17-13 at the intermission.
The biggest reason for this surprisingly hot first half? Longtime backup-turned-starting quarterback Geno Smith. In his first start in eight long years, Geno Smith completed an astonishing 17-of-18 passes for 164 yards and two touchdowns. Smith was responsible for the first touchdown of the season when he found a wide open Will Dissly for a 38-yard score.
