I hate Cardinals week; it’s too weird. And it sucks that it happens twice a year. How weird? Well, the home team has only won one of the last eleven matchups, which is honestly one of the most bonkers head-to-head stats I’ve ever heard for any rivalry. So on the one hand, I guess it’s good for Seattle that this game was in Arizona but on the other, that stadium has been an absolute minefield for the Seahawks.
That field has not only seen that awful 6-6 monstrosi-tie, it’s also where Super Bowl 49— the most heartbreaking moment in franchise history— happened, and where Cliff Avril, Kam Chancellor, Richard Sherman, and Earl Thomas all played the final snaps of their Seahawks careers.
