Seahawks had Cardinals where they wanted them and let them off the hook

Sunday night the Seattle Seahawks dropped their first game of the season to the Arizona Cardinals, leaving the team with a 5-1 record heading into the Week 8 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The Hawks had more than their fair share of chances to win the game, but between penalties, turnovers and other bad plays, they obviously came up short.

The defense surrendered more than 500 yards for the third time in six games and has yet to hold any opponent under 20 points or 400 yards yet this season. Yet in spite of three turnovers and a myriad of penalties, Seattle faced a third and two with 1:42 left and a chance to seal the win with a first down.
