Seahawks vs. Cardinals Betting Overview

The Arizona Cardinals will head to Seattle to take on the Seahawks in their Qwest Field opener on Sunday. Both teams play out of the NFC West, which has been rated by most experts as the worst division in football. Arizona is currently tied with San Francisco at the top, with a 1-1 record. The Cardinals were able to beat Carolina in week one, but then were downed at Washington last week. The Seahawks have looked pretty bad in the first two weeks. The defending NFC West champions lost to San Francisco in the opening week, and then topped it off with a road loss at Pittsburgh in week two.

The Arizona Cardinals also have a new starting quarterback. In the off-season, the Cardinals traded for former Eagles back-up quarterback Kevin Kolb.

Beanie Wells is the leading running back for Arizona. Wells has ran the football 32 times for 183 yards and 2 touchdowns. The Cardinals on the defensive side must improve. Arizona is allowing 466 yards per game, including a 400+ passing came from Carolina rookie Cam Newton.

Our Cardinals vs. Seahawks Pick and Predictions

The NFC West will have some competitive games this season. All four teams feel they have a chance to win the division, and make it into the postseason. Last season, Seattle made it in at under .500, and then beat the Saints in week one. Both teams know that can happen again in 2011. Look for this to be a fairly low scoring game, as the Seahawks try to control the ball. In the end, Arizona will be too much for the Seahawks, despite being on the road. The Cardinals are more athletic team than Seattle. We are betting the Arizona Cardinals -3 over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
