Stephen Nover's NFL Game of the Week
(NFL) Arizona vs. Seattle,
Point Spread: -7.50 | -105.00 Seattle (Home)
Result: Win
Point Spread: -7.50 | -105.00 Seattle (Home)
Result: Win
The Seahawks had won three in a row, including beating the Lions, until losing to the Bengals this past Sunday.
Look for the Seahawks to get back on the winning track here. They beat the Cardinals twice last season, each time by 10 points. The Cardinals are worse this season and the Seahawks have gotten healthier in their secondary and offensive line. I see another double-digit victory by Seattle.
Arizona ranks in the bottom-six defensively in the two most important categories, points allowed and yards given up. The Seahawks can open their offense now more for Geno Smith with their starting tackles back in action.
Joshua Dobbs is a very limited QB. He's especially ineffective without the Cardinals' one decent running back, injured James Conner. Dobbs has completed fewer than 50 percent of his throws during the past couple of games. This is really egregious because he rarely throws downfield. He's averaged just 5.5 yards per pass attempt during this span and has more interceptions than TD passes.
Seattle's defense could really come on with cornerbacks Devon Witherspoon and Tariq Woolen along with the return of dominant safety Jamal Adams to shore up the secondary.
