New York Giants defensive coordinator Wink Martindale had some high praise on Thursday for Geno Smith, the former New York Jets and Giants quarterback who is now setting the NFL afire with the surprising NFL West-leading Seattle Seahawks.
“I’ll give you the first name, Kurt Warner,” Martindale said when asked for a comparison to Smith’s ascent. “I don’t know if they’ll make a movie with Geno, but as a football fan and respect for the game, I really respect what he’s done with his game. Besides playing against him, it’s fun to watch the success that he’s had.
