Cardinals vs. Seahawks Prediction, Odds, Spread and Over/Under for NFL Week 6
By Josh Yourish
The Arizona Cardinals nearly used their backyard football style to upset the unbeaten Eagles in week 5, but a missed kick leaves them tied with the Seattle Seahawks at 2-3 in the NFC West. Now, Arizona needs to win in Seattle if they want to keep treading water until Deandre Hopkins returns from injury.
The Cardinals have playoff hopes and Seattle is rebuilding, but both are 2-3 and the Cardinals are only slim favorites.

Cardinals vs. Seahawks Prediction and Pick
If we know anything about the Seahawks and Geno Smith through five weeks, it’s that this team can score and this offense works. They only scored 17 on Denver in a Week 1 win, and were held to seven by the 49ers who have the best defense in football. Since then, they've scored 23, 48, and 32 in three straight weeks. Geno Smith is third among starting QBs with 8.3 yards per attempt, first in completion percentage, and has nine passing touchdowns to just two interceptions.
Oh, and the Seattle defense knows how to give up points too. They are allowing 8.6 yards per attempt, the worst in football and only have eight sacks. They can’t get pressure consistently and their rush defense gives up five yards per carry. Kyler Murray and the Cardinals offense has been the worst in the NFL in the first half of games, so I expect them to get behind and have to air it out against maybe the worst secondary they’ll face all year.
I came into the year thinking Seattle would be the worst team in football, but this Shane Waldron offense is working with Geno, and they run the ball very well too. They will simply score too many points this year to be a pushover.
Pick: Over 51.5 (-110)
