Our best guess is that Smith ends up winning the job, but he didn't exactly do that on Thursday night. He did have a couple of nice throws that picked up big yardage, but that doesn't change the fact that the Seahawks were outscored 17-0 in the first half, and that the boo birds were out in Seattle. Smith missed on a couple of deep passes and also tripped over his own running back off of play-action for a big loss. The very next drive, Jason Myers missed a 47-yard field goal attempt after the Seahawks had a first-and-10 from the Bears' 27-yard line just a few plays earlier. On one drive in the first half, the Seahawks converted a fourth-and-2 at the Bears' 34-yard line to get to the 22-yard line, but an illegal use of hands penalty nullified the play and knocked Seattle out of field goal range. We saw both good and bad from the Seahawks offense, and it wasn't all of Smith's fault. Many were expecting this would be the moment where the vet would run away with the quarterback competition, but that did not happen. With Lock sidelined due to COVID-19, Smith again got the start at quarterback. Geno Smith doesn't run away with QB competition Let's take a look at what went down in Seattle Thursday night. The offense was more consistent, the defense did bend at times, but did not break, and the special teams created several splash plays. Head coach Pete Carroll said before the game that Smith would play into the third quarter, but the quarterback came out of the locker room after halftime with his right knee wrapped and Jacob Eason instead took over.Ĭhicago won in all three facets of the game. Smith played the entire first half, completing 10 of 18 passes for 112 yards, and registered what was an up-and-down performance. Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock was supposed to start this matchup over Geno Smith as the two continue their position battle, but the former Denver Bronco came down with COVID-19 this week, so Smith again started in his place. A 14-0 second-quarter run extended the Bears' lead to 17 by halftime, and the deficit was too much for Seattle's reserves to overcome.
Bears second-year quarterback Justin Fields played just one drive, but that's all Chicago really needed.
