The NFL is the ultimate “what have you done for me lately?” league, and unfortunately, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith had the worst possible timing for his worst game of the year. Throwing three interceptions – including one returned 103-yards for a touchdown – in a 26-20 overtime loss to the Rams is the last game on memory for the 12th Man and the rest of the league.

Though his touchdown to interception ratio isn't good, Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith's numbers have been impacted by factors largely out of his control.

A look at what's led to an up-and-down first half for Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith and how he compares to the rest of the league.

Following a scoreless first quarter, Sean McVay’s Rams took a 3-0 lead near the conclusion of the second period. That’s when Smith caught absolute fire for the Seahawks. Smith completed 6-of-9 attempts for 125 yards and two touchdowns in the final 3:31 of the opening half, locating Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba for late touchdowns.

With the Seahawks losing five of six, some fans have started clamoring for a quarterback change, ignoring the real reasons why the team has struggled.

Geno Smith entered the week as the NFL leader in pass attempts. He threw the ball another 34 times on Sunday, three of them resulting in interceptions.

The Seattle Seahawks have designated offensive linemen Abraham Lucas and George Fant to return to practice, opening their 21-day window, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. These are significant developments for the Seahawks,
