Seattle Offense vs. Cardinals Defense

palmer4530Seattle QB Russell Wilson (65.9 COMP%, 5 TDs, 1 INT, 10 Sacks) will look to a few receivers on Sunday night. WR Doug Baldwin (28 REC, 361 YDs, 12.9 AVG, 2 TDs) and TE Jimmy Graham (22 REC, 355 YDs, 16.1 AVG, 1) will be essential to the success of the air game. Graham is injured and is questionable for the game. Christine Michael (81 ATT, 354 YDs, 4.4 AVG, 4 TDs) leads the rush attack.

Seattle will most likely have a tough time against the Arizona defense. The Cardinals come to this game with 19 sacks, 23 TFL, 9 interceptions, and 10 forced fumbles. LBs Markus Golden (6 Sacks, 2 TFL) and Chandler Jones (4 Sacks, 2 TFL) are enforcers while corner Marcus Cooper (3 INT, 6 PD, 1 TD) is the anchor in the secondary. Arizona is holding teams to 17.3 PPG.

He’s caught five touchdown passes while averaging 11. YPC. RB David Johnson has been effective, averaging 5.0 YPA while scoring eight TDs. He’s rushed for 568 yards total.
