Cardinals Look to Stay Hot After Bye Week
You know a team is playing well when there is a question as to whether or not their bye week could be seen as a bad thing. That is the case for the Arizona Cardinals, who won four games in a row prior to their bye. Kyler Murray and the Arizona offense has been operating at a high level coming into this week, averaging 29.3 points per game over their last three games. They will look to put another big number on the scoreboard here against an inconsistent Seattle defense.
Seahawks Look to Build On Comeback Win
The Seattle Seahawks got an impressive win in their last game, coming back from a late deficit to beat the San Francisco 49ers in the final minute of that game. Geno Smith got off to a rough start but he pulled it together late in the second half to help his team improve to 5-5 on the year. Now, Seattle can move into a tie for the top spot in the NFC West if they can beat the Cardinals to move both teams to 6-5 on the season after Week 12.
