Cardinals vs. Seahawks

Arizona -2.5 in a NFC West showdown. These two have split their meetings the last two years, home teams winning last year 28-21 in Seattle, 37-34 OT in Arizona. The Seahawks at 3-6 coming off being shutout for the first time ever with Wilson at QB are in a must win if they are to keep their streak of playoff appearances going. 18 games vs Arizona for Wilson, 7.3 YPA, 221.3 YPG, 29 TD and 8 INT, a 10-7-1 record, 4-5 at home vs. the Cardinals. 150 career starts without losing 3 in row for Russell, he has lost 2 in a row now. Defense had to step up in the absence of the starting QB allowing 15 per game in the last 4 games.

The Cardinals are 5-0 on the road and you can’t even really hold their home loss to the Panthers against them considering a backup QB and out top WR. They are 5th in offense, 10th in defense, 5th in stopping teams from converting 3rd down. 4 games for Murray vs Seattle, 247.0 YPG, 6 TD, 2 INT and a 2-2 record.

My prediction 23-19 Seahawks.
