The Cardinals allowed 89 yards and five plays of at least 10 yards in their first defensive series. The Seahawks scored a touchdown to take a 7-0 lead.

After that, the Seahawks didn’t score another touchdown, they had only 135 yards the rest of the game and only converted on one third down. They sacked Russell Wilson five times and held him to only two rushing yards.

Tyler Lockett only had one catch. DK Metcalf had zero.

It was the best defensive performance of the year by far.
