Poll: How do you think Geno Smith fared in Russell Wilson’s absence?

Our fearless leader here at Field Gulls Mookie Alexander threw this poll up on the official Field Gulls Twitter account and it clearly got a lot of people thinking, “Did Geno Smith meet, surpass, or fail to live up to your expectations in Russell Wilson’s absence?”

Geno Smith's stats over his 3 starts:

55/78 for 571 yards, 5 TDs (4 pass, 1 rush), 0 INTs, 1 lost fumble, 13 sacks taken, 1-2 record

Did Geno meet, surpass, or fail to live up to your expectations in Russell Wilson's absence?— Field Gulls (@FieldGulls) November 4, 2021

While the reactions from Seattle Seahawks fans did not surprise me in the comments, as they were generally “Met expectations” with Mookie agreeing in a later tweet, but I think that's entirely wrong and unfair to Geno Smith.
