It took four games to prove the Seahawks were right about Geno Smith

The Seattle Seahawks made the shocking decision to move on from Geno Smith in the offseason, sending him to the Las Vegas Raiders for a third-round pick. Instead, they signed Sam Darnold to a three-year, $100.5 million deal that included $55 million in guarantees.

The move has paid off as Seattle's new quarterback has been incredibly productive, as his 91.1 Pro Football Focus (subscription required) grade leads the entire league. Meanwhile, the Seahawks have been among the best teams in the league as they have rebounded from a season-opening loss to win their past three games -- including two blowout victories and a road divisional win.
