Key match ups in my mind:

-how will our rising corners fair against a very solid wr tandem in metcalf/njigba

-will ralis be able to expose a Seahawks offensive line that has dealt with retirements/injuries - doesn’t seem the 49ers were able to

-Does Murray keep the offense rolling in a difficult stadium at a key moment? Murray only has one win in Lumen field in his career-5 years ago in 2019

That's pretty good, agree! Weird about the SEA center retiring midseason!

And we've gotten enough pass rush the last two weeks with guys like Luketa and X. Hope it's enough again this week. We'll see more of Browning, and will this be Darious Robinson's pro debut?

Maybe when someone has a moment, they'll post the updated SEA rushing defense stats. I'm wondering about the match-up between our OLine/TE group vs. their front seven.

If the offense really wants to claim they're top five or whatever, they need to be able to go on the road in the division and post 24, 27, or something similar. 13 won't win this game.

Though I’m glad Seattle won, I also wonder if this win could rejuvenate their locker room. Regardless, it’s not about them, it’s about us and how we play. Thankfully I know that’s the mindset of a JG led team.

The rams play the Eagles next week and the 9ers play GB. We could be two games up in the division at the end of the day on Sunday.
This post gave me goose bumps!

This is going to be a tough game. We haven't beat the Seahawks since '21, although had some close ones, and it's a team finding itself again.

They held the Niners to 159 yards passing so it's a decent defense and they have a smart HQ. Also the Cards have been bad coming off bye weeks for a while.

This is a very different Cards team, but going to be a tough game.
The difference is the Cards can survive and win with 159 yards passing, because if the balanced attack.

And we could be tied for first with a loss

The only time to rest on your laurels is when you are holding up the trophy

And then only for a bit until you go back to work

At no time before

This is a divisional game and they are always slugfests. Seattle is only a game back and with a win will own the tiebreaker with the Cards until they play again in two weeks. This will probably be the most difficult test for the Cardinals in weeks. I could see it going either way especially if the Hawks take an early lead and the crowd gets into it.

Thanks for the pep talk, Coach Lombardi. ;)

Going to be a fun week.

Hopefully we hear about Robinson today.
Everyone should be healthy.
Can we win 5 in a row?
Take a commanding lead in the division.
We are a 1pt dog right now so basically a pickem.

We should be able to run on the Chickens and their offense likes to pass.

kyler's been balling out - geno just saved the day - so id say this game comes down to defense - i simply don't see this being a high scoring game

our defense is terrorizing offenses right now but the chickens handled purdy and frisco - we might have to keep it short and simple

this will be another data point in my "do i trust this coaching staff and team" journey

years past: big road game after a bye week? almost a guarantee of a sloppy, lackluster effort where they lose by 3 scores

nobody can guarantee a win, but I sure expect a focused, quality effort that comes down to the end
