Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith had a rough day at the office in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills. With top wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) out of the lineup, Smith and the Seahawks offense as a whole struggled to get anything going. Smith continued to be accurate (72% completion percentage), but he failed to throw a touchdown for the first time this season. Smith and the Seahawks seemed to be building offensive momentum after a great Week 7 in Atlanta, but that came crashing down in Week 8. Overall, the game was a mess for the Seahawks as they lost 31 to 10. Luckily, Metcalf's injury is not serious and he could return as soon as Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams. Either way, expect Smith to have a better day next week against a softer defense.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud returned to his efficient ways on Sunday against Indianapolis, completing 25 of 37 attempts for 285 yards and a touchdown in a 23-20 victory. The Ohio State product had no turnovers and completed passes to eight different receivers for Houston. Unfortunately, Stroud may be without another member of his talented receiver corps, as Stefon Diggs (knee) departed the game with a non-contact injury. Top target Nico Collins (hamstring) will be on injured reserve for at least another week. The second-year quarterback and the Texans will travel to play the New York Jets in Week 9.
