Seahawks week 4 breakdown against the Cardinals
By Geoff Shull
Special Teams and Keys to Watch
The Cardinals Kicker Zane Gonzalez is one of only six kickers to complete 100% of the field goal attempts this season. This includes 2 between 40-50 yards, and 9 total makes. The Cardinals punter Andy Lee has the 7th most punts in the league at 17 attempts with an average yards per punt registering at 7th best or 48.4 yards per punt. The Cardinals Special teams is proving to be an absolute monster this year. I expect them to utilize this often throughout the game.
Keys to watch:
Can Wilson and Lockett continue their on-field success averaging 10.5 receptions over the last two weeks?
Will Carson get ball security under control, or will he relish carries to C.J. Prosise and Rashaad Penny?
After just 2 QB hits last week, will the defensive line generate more QB pressure?
Can the Seahawks secondary improve and keep the Cardinals air raid offense under control?
I expect the Seahawks to win this contest. Divisional games are always tough; however, I think after the wake-up call last week, we will come back stronger than ever. Look for a Seahawks win and a 3-1 record after this week’s matchup.
