The 2021 season may not be one of the more memorable campaigns in franchise history, but the Seattle Seahawks managed to finish strong and go out on a high note. Following their dominant 51-29 win over the Detroit Lions last week, the Seahawks played spoiler for Arizona Cardinals in a thrilling 38-30 victory.
Seattle won’t be going to the playoffs, but they directly impacted the route their division rivals will be taking. Going into this game, the Cardinals needed to beat the Seahawks and hope the 49ers upset the Rams in order to claim a division title. San Francisco did their part in overtime, but the Seahawks denied the Cardinals a chance for an elusive division crown.
This had to feel good for 12’s everywhere. In 2016 and 2019, the Cardinals played spoiler for the Seahawks by eliminating them from much-needed first round byes when they stole two wins at Lumen Field in those years. Now the Seahawks got a little bit of revenge themselves to end the year.
For a second consecutive week, and for the final time in the year, the Seahawks have only Studs to show for.
