Geno Smith Files Trademark for Now-Famous Line After Week 1 Win

After Geno Smith and the Seahawks beat the Broncos on Monday Night Football to open the season last week, the Seattle quarterback delivered a now-famous line during the postgame celebration.

“They wrote me off. I ain’t write back though,” Smith exclaimed in the postgame interview.

After the clip of Smith’s interview went viral following the Week 1 win, Smith decided to make the most of the now-famous line. Smith has filed a trademark for the phrase, with a filing date of Sept. 14, two days after the victory.

After Seattle’s season opening victory against former franchise quarterback Russell Wilson and Denver, the Seahawks were unable to keep the momentum going in Week 2, as they fell on Sunday to division rival San Francisco 27–7 on the road.
