With both teams looking to gain momentum, the Seahawks' victory sets them up as a formidable contender in the NFC West. C.J. Stroud led the charge for Seattle, throwing for 256 yards and exhibiting poise in the pocket. Zach Charbonnet contributed significantly on the ground with 78 rushing yards, while Jaxon Smith-Njigba was a standout receiver, racking up 94 yards and providing key plays to sustain drives. Despite Carson Beck's two touchdown passes for Arizona, the Seahawks' offensive firepower proved too much to handle.

The turning point came late in the second quarter when Jones IV's interception set up a touchdown that extended Seattle's lead to 21-7, effectively putting the game out of reach for the Cardinals.
