NFL
Seattle enters with a stronger statistical profile on both sides of the ball, led by 23.13 points per game, 5.27 yards per play, and a defense that has held opponents to 19.88 points per game and 156.0 passing yards allowed per game. Arizona is more balanced offensively, but the Cardinals have been less efficient, averaging 21.88 points per game and 4.78 yards per play while allowing 29.75 points per game and 5.73 yards per play allowed. That gap in defensive quality is the key handicapper here, especially because Seattle has been far better at limiting explosive passing output and overall efficiency.
Seattle has the better defense, the cleaner efficiency profile, and the stronger scoring prevention numbers, so the most likely outcome is a Seahawks win with Arizona held below its usual scoring level. The projected final score is Seattle 27, Arizona 13, which keeps the Cardinals under their team total and leaves the game below the full-game total as well. The Seahawks should control the game flow at home, while Arizona’s offense runs into a defense that has consistently limited yardage and points.
