On Thursday night, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Seattle Seahawks in a big early-season NFC West matchup. The 49ers easily won the turnover battle despite the officials giving up one point because they couldn’t see as much in New York’s control center as the home fans.
Geno Smith threw two interceptions and completed just 30 of 52 pass attempts. His frustration boiled over as he was looking at something on his tablet in the fourth quarter. At least, we assume this is what happened because the Prime Video broadcast showed him hitting his head with a Microsoft Surface in a way not described in the instruction manual.
As if the bashing wasn’t enough, he topped it off with a Tom Brady-like tablet spike. Honestly, quarterbacks shouldn’t be allowed to handle tablets after a bad drive.
The 49ers and Seahawks are currently tied for first place in the NFC West with the same 3-3 record. They are scheduled to meet again on Sunday, November 17th. Smith’s tablet is currently listed as questionable for that matchup.
