It is a relatively short flight, no fans at the game and we have played well up there. It is a short week for them too. I say we win again.
lol at “character” narratives
we are three point dogs. it will likely come down to last possession and a couple plays

They are saying to expect more of a run oriented attack.

This IS a must win game. Right now the Cardinals are a novelty... young team... fancy new offense.... been historically terrible.... college coach.... yada yada bing bang.
Sweeping Russell Wilson and the Hags legitimizes this team as a serious playoff contender... this is the first step in getting anywhere or doing anything.
The next step is beating Sean McVay... Kliff needs to get that monkey off his back. We don’t have to sweep the lambs but we have to beat them once this season. If Kliff wants to be an nfl coach it has to happen... if Kyler wants to be MVP and get the next Madden cover it has to happen.
we passed the biggest hurdle already when we finally beat the hags at home.....
time to take the next step

Would much rather take one of the two Rams games than this one.
We can do both
Good memory!
In 2015, the Cards were 4-0 on Monday night, back-to-back Sunday nights, and Thursday night.

Yep.
If the Murray MVP hype is real he beats and outplays Russell Wilson in primetime again.
As DHOP would say, do you wanna be good or do you wanna be great?
Yeah I saw that...Though he only has 3 passing TD’s. Yikes!

This is not a must win game. That is BS. There are many games left to be won/lost by us and our opponents. This is not the last game of the year. Things change weekly, just like my bed sheets.

uh, pin point passes I still see from RW. It's likely he is just wearing down as he has played at a high level dragging his team with him.
Gotta be tiring for the elder statesman...

AZman, you got me to a tee with this summation.
The thing that worries me is the Seahawks are like a wounded animal. They are well versed in big games. Thinking of them losing 3 straight is kind of weird. For a mindset This is a must game for them.
We may have to play our best game of the year. Limit the penalties and no turnovers is a must. I think they will try to control the time of possession by running the ball.
Win and we move up the totem pole. Lose and we’ll be back “ in the mix”. This is a great opportunity to put our stamp in the NFC.

I think we lose if Carson plays.
Very curious to see
(1) if we try to establish the run early
(2) if we blitz Russ early
I think Kliff will call a designed Kyler run in the first set of downs. Maybe out of an empty set.
I do not think Vance will come after Russell early. I think he wants to keep that card in his back pocket for higher leverage situations later in the game, like he did so masterfully in the first meeting. I think Vance realizes that Seattle had to make some incredible plays in the passing game to move the ball in the first meeting and their offense has regressed in recent weeks. I think he sits in a soft zone, especially if Carson is out, and forces Russ to make window throw after window throw.

I’m ready to call this race after week 10. The current 7 teams in the playoffs are the 7 teams that will be in the playoffs in January.
It just looks like he has concussion.
I'm not sure I want to win the division if coming 2nd means we play the winner of the NFC East. That's basically a bye. And from there anything can happen.
AT the moment we would play the Bucs I think? So while I want to win the division I'd rather get the NFC East winner.
I expect the old Seahawks on Sunday. Lots of running the ball, draw defenders in, hit us with the deep ball. Maybe a whole 3rd less passing for Wilson.
