Seattle has a bye week following the Jaguars game, then will hope to have Wilson back for a Week 10 game against the Green Bay Packers. Seattle's playoff hopes are dwindling fast, but would be all but dashed if Smith can't notch a win over the Jaguars; since , teams that start have reached the playoffs at an 8.
Carroll also praised Smith for the way he's protected the ball; he hasn't thrown an interception since the late pick against the Rams, and has lost one fumble in nine-plus quarters of action. However, Carroll also wants to see Smith recognize better when a play is dead, adding that he took "two or three" sacks that should've been throwaways against the Saints.
On Thursday, Wilson discussed White's performances and areas where can he grow as a first-year pro. Following Beckham signing with Los Angeles on Thursday, Johnson isn't sure how the pairing will mesh. Robert Hunt made the most memorable play of Miami's Thursday night win over Baltimore, hauling in what looked to be a TD catch-and-run.
The only problem for the offensive lineman: He wasn't an eligible receiver. Ravens coach John Harbaugh repeatedly took blame for Baltimore's poor performance Thursday night in a loss to the Dolphins. This guy is extremely talented. I believe he does learn from that experience. The last time I got to hang out with Geno and talk about all that, he said he really took that opportunity to really soak up the information and all the learning he was able to do, hoping that one day he was going to be given that chance.
That is his job. The Seahawks are not asking Geno to go win them football games. He doesn't have that same pressure on his shoulders as Russell Wilson would have. So just go be you and be yourself and distribute the football and not force things in the middle of the field. I believe he will, and that's why I think Geno Smith is going to do just fine over the next three weeks.

The Seahawks' wide receiver had a monster performance against the Jaguars to get his team back in the win column. With all those throws, plus all the reps this week. Smith was asked how tired his arm is. Smith said the week of practice was good and efficient, with Wilson doing his usual to prepare his teammates.
For Wilson, it was like usual. I think that's why we're so close -- we both love what we do. We have love for the game. Ultimately, it's about setting the standard for one another. That's the only thing you have to live up to: the standard you set for yourself. Whatever someone else thinks, that's their problem. I love Russ for being the ultimate competitor and a super tough guy. He just goes out and prepares to play like he always does. I'm just taking reps on the field, he's not.
The former Jets starter, who famously filled in for Eli Manning with the Giants as well, has an opportunity, beginning tonight. He can, perhaps, show a few people that he belongs in the league as a starter. Not that he's not focused on that or anything.
It's one night, not the rest of my life. Mostly, it's a game I love to play, a game that I'm passionate about.
