In a pivotal NFC West matchup, the Arizona Cardinals fell to the Seattle Seahawks 30-18, extending their losing streak to three games and dropping their season record to 6-7.
The Seahawks, now 8-5, have widened their division lead over the Cardinals.
Arizona struggled across all phases, with quarterback Kyler Murray throwing two first-quarter interceptions, marking the first time in his career he has thrown multiple interceptions in consecutive games. The Cardinals’ passing game mustered just -0.030 EPA per play, and Murray finished with a sub-65.0 passing grade on the first review.
Despite missing starting running back Kenneth Walker III, Seattle's ground game thrived. Backup Zach Charbonnet rushed for a career-high 134 yards and two touchdowns, forcing six missed tackles and averaging a very healthy 5.7 yards after contact per carry.
