Chris Simms and Mike Florio think Seattle's momentum could carry over to challenge New Orleans in Week 5.

Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith was the NFC’s offensive player of the week for Week 4 and he’s off to a great start in Week 5.

Smith hit wide receiver DK Metcalf with a deep ball that went for a 50-yard touchdown to cap their first offensive possession. The extra point put the Seahawks up 7-3 with just under seven minutes to play in the first quarter.

Smith also had a 15-yard completion to tight end Noah Fant and Rashaad Penny ran three times for 10 yards during a crisp opening drive for the visiting team.

The Saints also moved the ball well for a bit on their first drive, but they ultimately stalled in Seahawks territory. Wil Lutz hit a 56-yard field goal to open the scoring.
