This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER on the Seattle Seahawks.

Here's a huge divisional battle, Arizona is the best team not only in the competitive NFC West, but also in the NFL. The defending champions have struggled for the most part this year, but when the smoke clears at the end of this one, I look for the home side to take care of business and send the Cardinals a resounding message. This is also a revenge game for Seattle after Arizona handed the Seahawks their only home loss in 2013. Arizona has won six straight since losing to Denver in Week 5 and has continued its success despite some offensive issues, most notably in losing QB Carson Palmer to season-ending knee injury in Week 10; so far Drew Stanton has been decent, he's now 3-1 as a starter this year. The Cards are coming off a 14-6 win over Detroit last week. Note that star WR Larry Fitzgerald suffered a sprained MCL on Sunday. I think that Arizona is going to be overwhelmed today though, the one two running punch of Marshawn Lynch and QB Russell Wilson is a formidable one. From a trend based stand point, there's no question that this is a sound play as well, note that Arizona is just 6-8 ATS in its last 14 as an underdog in the 3.5 to 9 points range, while Seattle is a perfect 7-0 ATS its last seven as a home favorite of 3.5 to 7 points. I think the Cardinals numerous injuries on the offensive side of the ball finally catch up to them here and the home side pulls away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover; play on SEATTLE.
