Mics picked up Geno Smith’s hilariously relatable reaction to an unblocked Aaron Donald running at him

Aaron Donald Geno Smith Steve Smith Sr NFL

If you were to poll NFL quarterbacks about which player they’d least like to see charging at them with an open lane unblocked, odds are the Aaron Donald would be an awfully popular pick.

So, you really can’t blame Geno Smith for reacting the way he did on Sunday. He experienced that nightmare scenario first hand and lived to tell the tale. And thankfully, we heard it all as it played out in real time.

During the Week 1 matchup between the Rams and Seahawks, Smith had to get rid of the ball quickly on a third-down play because he saw as Donald evaded the pass protection and had a clear path at him. His reaction was picked up on the broadcast mics, and man, it was so good.

Smith saw Donald charging at him and shouted, “OH MY GOD!”

A quarterback never wants to see his pass protection lose track of any defender, but they *really* don’t want to see it happen with Donald.

NFL fans understandably loved that relatable reaction from Smith.

This was how Twitter reacted
