Seahawks vs. Cardinals score: Russell Wilson survives early defensive onslaught by Arizona to avoid sweep - CBSSports.com

What began as a defensive stalemate in the first half ended as anything but, with both the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks coming alive in the second half, but it was Pete Carroll getting the best of Kliff Kingsbury with a 28-21 win in the Pacific Northwest. The first quarter saw only one touchdown scored between both usually high-powered clubs led by MVP candidates in Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray, but things ratcheted up in the second quarter when both Wilson and Murray turned on the stove -- the latter helping the Cardinals tie the game before the former hit Tyler Lockett on an 11-yard toss to remind everyone he can cook, too. 

They'd miss the extra point attempt though, and in a game this close, that loomed largely, but wound up not mattering because it was forgiven by a fourth-quarter safety fueled by a controversial offensive holding penalty in the end zone by J.R. Sweezy. That gave the Seahawks a four-point lead and some much-needed breathing room, after seeing Murray connect with running back Chase Edmonds for a wide-open touchdown that shrank the Cardinals deficit to only two-points to start the fourth session. 

In the end, and despite the Cardinals landing three sacks on Wilson -- who's night was more efficient than it was eye-popping -- the Seahawks avoid the 2020 sweep in the series and regain the No. 1 seat in the NFC West.
