The Seattle Seahawks have been capable of climate the early Arizona Cardinals storm and win 30-18 in entrance of a Seahawks-heavy crowd at State Farm Stadium in Glendale. It’s the third consecutive sweep of the Cardinals, whose playoff hopes have been successfully dashed on Sunday.
I do know that the Cardinals version of Enemy Response tends to not be all that entertaining given the small Arizona fanbase. We’ll make due anyway with the perfect moments from that sport (with feedback from Revenge of the Birds) and a few amusing Atlanta Falcons reactions from some of the inept performances I’ve ever seen from an NFL secondary (plus one other Kirk Cousins decide parade). The one purpose I’d spotlight them is for any Washington Huskies who are usually not followers of former head coach and present Atlanta defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake.

The one actual brilliant spot for Arizona was its opening-drive landing, the place it regarded like quarterback Kyler Murray and the offense had moved previous their earlier points.
Spoiler: They didn’t.
And it begins with Murray.
The quarterback continues to throw it to the opposite group, including two extra interceptions to his 2024 resume. Seattle made the many of the turnovers, scoring a pair of touchdowns on the following drives.
Murray’s now as much as 5 picks throughout the previous three video games after throwing simply three in 10 video games performed.
The sign caller did handle to toss a pair of touchdowns, nevertheless it’s the interceptions that stand out like sore thumbs on the stat sheet.

Enemy Preaction: Inexperienced Bay Packers
The Seahawks have been in must-win mode for basically 4 straight weeks, they usually’ve gained all of them. That is the primary comparatively snug win throughout that stretch, they usually got here away nearly unscathed when it comes to accidents.
Now the actually arduous half comes with the NFC North gauntlet to finish the common season residence schedule. The Inexperienced Bay Packers are 9-4 and just about finished within the division, however they’ll nonetheless wish to at the very least safe that playoff spot as quickly as doable earlier than serious about probably resting gamers towards the tip of the season. Jordan Love pushes the ball downfield very properly and there are some trick shot throws he’s able to making that no protection can take care of. Inexperienced Bay’s protection is significantly improved from final season, though the move rush and center linebacker play could be very questionable, plus there are accidents within the secondary. It’s a primetime return to Lumen Subject and the Seahawks can’t afford one other residence slip-up.
Anyway, what’s ever occurred in a nationally televised Packers vs. Seahawks sport in Seattle?
Thanks for studying and go ‘Hawks!
