SB Nation Reacts Results: Seahawks fans with concerns about pass defense
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of followers throughout the NFL. Every week we ask questions of probably the most plugged-in Seattle Seahawks followers and followers throughout the nation.
The opening week of the 2022 NFL season is within the books, and the Seattle Seahawks sit alone atop the NFC West. The Hawks journey to Santa Clara for Week 2 to tackle the San Francisco 49ers in a divisional tilt that can see the winner of the competition assured to be in first place within the division to open Week 3.
As for the way the on subject efficiency of the group in Week 1 impacted the assumption of followers within the group, properly, there’s no scarcity of confidence following the upset victory over the Denver Broncos.
As for the way followers graded out the efficiency, nearly all of responding followers didn’t imagine the trouble warranted an A, however moderately a really strong B.

Why a B as an alternative of an A? Nicely, that’s a query one must pose to the followers who responded, however the unit which followers felt struggled probably the most was the cross protection.

That’s not a shock after surrendering 340 yards by way of the air to the Broncos, however maybe most troubling is the truth that the second most concern was expressed relating to the run protection. If the protection as an entire has points stopping opponents both by way of the air or on the bottom, it may make for a protracted season. And, sure, it’s just one week, however after that one week the Seahawks offense ranks twenty ninth within the league for yards generated and twenty ninth within the league in yards given up.
As for the portion of the offense which followers felt struggled the least towards Denver, vital parts of that success are definitely attributable to Geno Smith, who led the unit that almost all impressed followers.

Talking of Smith and the offense, he met or exceeded the expectations of nearly all of followers.

The one logical clarification for the one p.c of followers who felt that Smith failed to satisfy expectations is that they’re the Drewanon followers whose expectations for Smith included restricted offensive manufacturing, sacks and a number of turnovers, resulting in a benching in favor of Drew Lock.
Seattle didn’t simply impress its personal followers, although, because the efficiency Monday impressed followers throughout the nation sufficient to place the Hawks on the prime of an inventory of contenders. Form of.

So, sure, the Seahawks are possible the most important contender out of that group of groups which might be possible not contenders. In any case, it’s on to Week 2 and San Francisco.
