Geno Smith faced the music after the Seattle Seahawks' 26-20 overtime defeat to the Los Angeles Rams, taking responsibility for critical errors that led to the loss. Smith's two red-zone interceptions in the fourth quarter proved pivotal, turning a potential victory into a heartbreaking defeat.

Coach Mike Macdonald highlighted the offensive line's struggles, as Smith was sacked seven times and faced relentless pressure. Despite some improvement in the run game, consistency remains a major issue for the Seahawks.

With the team sitting last in the NFC West, Macdonald emphasized the need for adjustments across all phases. The upcoming bye week presents an opportunity for reflection and potential reinforcements, including tackle Abraham Lucas, as the Seahawks aim to regain their footing in a tight division race.
