The Seahawks obliterated the Cardinals in a 44-22 rout — leading 38-7 at halftime after one of the most dominant defensive performances of the season. Mike Macdonald’s defense flew around, forced turnovers, and controlled the game from start to finish.

DeMarcus Lawrence and Byron Murphy II anchored a front that lived in the backfield, while Devon Witherspoon continued his All-Pro caliber season with another statement game. Sam Darnold and JSN kept the offense steady, but this one was all about the defense making a statement to the rest of the NFC.
