As the Seattle Seahawks gear up for another weekend matchup, they find themselves again labeled as the underdogs. This marks the eighth consecutive game where the Seahawks are predicted to lose, with the Arizona Cardinals emerging as the favorites. Interestingly, despite the Cardinals currently facing a two-game losing streak, they are seen as stronger contenders than during their first encounter in Week 12.
Here’s a snapshot of the betting odds for the Seahawks versus Cardinals game:
– Point spread: Cardinals -2.5
– Money line: Cardinals -145, Seahawks +120
– Over-under: 44.5
While the Seahawks have been on a winning streak, taking their last three games, questions linger about the effectiveness of their offense. The Cardinals, on the other hand, are in a more precarious position and have generally fared better against the Seahawks when playing at home. The upcoming game is expected to be a close call, but many analysts predict the Cardinals will narrowly secure victory due to Seattle’s difficulties in making big plays in the red zone.
Prediction: Cardinals to edge out Seahawks with a score of 19-17.
For those wishing to catch the action, the game is set to begin at 1:05 PM Pacific Standard Time and will be broadcast on CBS.
In a season that has tested the Seahawks’ resilience, their recent victories provide a glimmer of hope as they look to leverage their momentum despite the odds against them. It will be interesting to see if they can defy the predictions and emerge victorious.
This game presents an opportunity not just for the Seahawks to prove the odds wrong, but it also highlights the competitive spirit of the NFL, where each game can shift the narrative dramatically.
