The Seattle Seahawks face the Arizona Cardinals in a crucial Week 14 matchup with NFC West implications. Both teams are looking to bolster their playoff hopes.
Week 14: Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals , December 8, 1:05 p.m., State Farm Stadium, Glendale, AZ - CBS\Preseason Prediction Results: 7-5 (if I didn’t change on game week)\The Seahawks defense appears to have stabilized. Enough can’t be said about the addition of Ernest Jones IV, he’s been the catalyst to shoring up the run defense which has opened up Macdonald’s playbook. However, the offense is still a mess, with significant lack of quality coordination.

But after that it’s all average at best. They play hard, disciplined, team football, and are opportunistic. On offense the Cardinals are balanced and explosive. Kyler Murray is playing outstanding with excellent pocket awareness, explosive runs, and accurate timely passes. However, he still avoids throwing to the short to intermediate middle of the field. Their passing game lives outside the numbers with an occasional 15yd post, dig, or short comeback, on the hashes mixed in. They also run a wide variety of screens. Harrison Jr is everything you want in a receiver and will be a significant challenge for Seattle’s secondary. Running back James Conner has amazing vision and patience and always gets the extra yard. The Cardinals run game loves to run sweeps and wide zone and will test the Seahawks edges all gam
