Entering the game on Sunday night, the Seattle Seahawks had a chance to stay in first place in the NFC West if they were to win against the Green Bay Packers. Instead, Seattle laid an egg at home against Green Bay and lost by a final score of 30-13.
The Packers improved to 10-4 on the season and the Seahawks are now 8-6. With the loss for Seattle, they are now not in a playoff spot because the Los Angeles Rams are also 8-6 and have the tiebreaker over the Seahawks for the NFC West division lead.
Geno Smith Gets Injured For the Seattle Seahawks Against the Green Bay Packers
One of the most discouraging things for the Seahawks against the Packers on Sunday night was the performance of the offense. Green Bay sacked Seattle seven times in the game. To go along with that, Geno Smith got hurt in the game and Sam Howell came into the game.
Both quarterbacks looked lost against the Green Bay Packers defense. Geno Smith completed 15-of-19 passes for 149 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. As for Sam Howell, he completed 5-of-14 passes for 24 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception.
Seahawks Fans React To Bad Night
Disgusting performance at home again. This team should not make the playoffs. Maybe next year if OL gets improvements.

It got interesting there for a few minutes but we got gashed up front on both sides.
Either way, a loss is a loss.
Just really wish we stopped getting teams coming off Byes or Thursday night games cause I feel like it’s happened a lot this season

Geno Smith needs to go. The Seahawks need to hire like they want to be more than a mediocre team. The Seahawks gave Geno Smith the opportunity to redeem a failed career. Fine. He did that. Now he needs to retire so that the Seahawks can look for a QB with real potential.

Time to start looking towards the future at the quarterback position.

This team is horrible!!!!! Get rid of Geno!, Trade Dk and build the o-line. Can’t have a run game, if the o-line can’t make a hole!

The Seattle Seahawks will next play against the Minnesota Vikings (11-2). The biggest development for Seattle will be the quarterback situation. They need to make sure they are still in contention to win the NFC West by the time they face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 18 of the NFL season.
