We have the first offseason show of 2024 on the podcast. Seth Cox and I grade each position group of the Arizona Cardinals for the 2023 season and also head coach Jonathan Gannon. We give our offseason awards and then delve into the NFL offseason and playoffs.

We make some early coaching predictions (although one has already been announced since we recorded the show as Jerod Mayo replaces Bill Belichick in New England) and wrap things up with NFL Wild Card playoff predictions and prop bets we like.

Expert picks for Seahawks-Cardinals matchup in Week 18

Who do the experts expect will win between the Cardinals and the Seahawks?

The Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks face one another for the second time this season in Week 18. This time, it is in Arizona. The Seahawks beat Arizona 20-10 in Seattle in Week 7 despite turning the ball over three times.

This time, the Cardinals are coming off their best win of the season and are 3-4 in seven games with Kyler Murray back in the lineup at quarterback. The Seahawks have lost five of their last seven games and need a win and some help to make the playoffs.

How will this game play out?

We have some expert picks and predictions below.

They have won 11 games and have one of the best offenses in the league.

The Cardinals have only three wins and one of the worst defenses in the NFL.

So who wins?
