The Seattle Seahawks are going into an offseason of transition after firing offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb after just one season. The Seahawks barely missed the playoffs in 2024-25, and the offense is legitimately bearing a large portion of the fault after Mike McDonald transformed the Seattle defense into a very good one in his first season as head coach.

Previous New Orleans Saints offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak is the new play caller in Seattle, and he is, as of now, exceptionally amped up for the job. Kubiak is pumped to work with quarterback Geno Smith, as indicated by Seahawks beat correspondent John Boyle.

“Geno is an exceptionally great player; he’s had a lot of production,” Kubiak said, per Boyle. “Clearly he’s been doing it for quite a while; he’s overcome a lot in his career. I have a great deal of regard for Geno. It was a huge draw to come here and be able to coach him alongside [quarterbacks coach] Andrew Janocko. We have exclusive requirements for him; we will push Geno and get the best out of him, and we’ll do that by pushing his teammates also. It’s not only his show; it’s a team thing, and he must be the top of that.”

Smith didn’t have an extraordinary year, measurably in 2024, completing the campaign with only 21 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. Be that as it may, he had to manage a poor offensive line and no run game in an exceptionally static offense, so perhaps Kubiak can open this unit next season.

The Seattle Seahawks could win big with Geno Smith

The Seahawks fanbase is separated on whether Geno Smith can lead them profoundly into the playoffs. A few fans need to get rid of him, while others demand that he be a title-level quarterback with the right team around him.

In the event that the Seahawks can fix a portion of the issues in their team that were huge weaknesses last season, Smith can totally lead a contender in the NFC. Jalen Hurts and Jared Goff quarterbacked the two best teams in the conference last season, and Smith is on their level at the position.

The top undertaking for the Seahawks this offseason will be revamping an offensive line that made up one of the most terrible units in the NFL last season. The offensive line kept Smith from having any opportunity to throw and furthermore prevented the Seahawks from having any semblance of a running game, so fixing that must be the first concern.

In the event that they can do that, Smith has shown that he has what it takes as a pocket manager and a pure passer to make this an excellent offense. He has an incredible arm, is exceptionally precise, and is unafraid to utilize those two skills to be aggressive and push the ball downfield into tight windows. That, joined with a defense that ought to be generally excellent once more, is a winning formula for Seattle.
