Dumbest thing I’ve read this week: Geno Smith is better than both 49ers QBs

It's Seahawks week, and we can always find plenty of Seattle fans tweeting dumb things. They seem to think that having a good team for ten years equals a dynasty, and that they somehow have surpassed the San Francisco 49ers in historical greatness.
Forget the fact that you can't have a dynasty with only one Super Bowl Championship. Seahawks fans want you to pay attention to what their team has accomplished the last decade. But, they don't want 49er fans referring to the Camelot days, when San Francisco won five Lombardi trophies.
I hate the Seahawks—that's no secret, and it's partly because of their annoying fans, most of which just started paying attention to the team in 2012. They don't like when San Francisco fans mention that the 49ers dynasty lasted almost 20 years, and produced multiple championships. They say that's history, and history should be ignored. Yes, teams with no history hate talking about history.
But one Seahawks fan really got my attention this week. And I rewarded him by giving him the "dumbest thing I've read this week" award.
Congratulations to Seahawks fan, Evan Hill, for his ridiculous statements regarding quarterbacks. Hill was bold enough to suggest Seattle backup Geno Smith is better than both 49ers quarterbacks, Jimmy Garoppolo and Trey Lance. Personally, I don't even know that Smith is better than either C.J. Beathard or Nick Mullens.

We're just 10 days away from the start of the 2024 NFL Draft.
