This week’s Thursday Night Football brings the Seattle Seahawks traveling to Arizona to face the Cardinals at State Farm Stadium in Glendale. Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. Eastern, and you can watch it exclusively on Prime Video with pregame coverage starting at 7 p.m.; tickets for the game are reportedly as low as 44 dollars according to ESPN. Both teams enter at 2 and 1, making this early NFC West showdown a critical measuring stick for each franchise.
The latest odds from ESPN have the Cardinals as slight 1.5 point favorites, with an over under set at 43.5, a sign that analysts are expecting a competitive, moderately high-scoring contest. Much of the speculation this week has swirled around Cardinals quarterback Mac Jones, who led Arizona to a narrow 15-16 loss against the 49ers but has shown growth after being acquired in the offseason. Jones’s chemistry with emerging wideout Michael Wilson is the talk of Arizona sports radio, but the Cardinals will need a cleaner effort after costly turnovers derailed them in San Francisco.
The Seahawks, led by head coach Mike Macdonald, are coming off an emphatic 44-13 rout of New Orleans, a game that saw Sam Darnold, Seattle’s offseason acquisition at quarterback, bounce back with authority after a shaky opener. Darnold’s mobility, combined with dynamic rookie receiver Troy Franklin, offers the Seahawks a new offensive dimension. Seattle's defense, headlined by veteran safety Quandre Diggs, is drawing renewed praise after forcing three turnovers last Sunday.
Notably, both teams are relatively healthy but Seattle remains without standout cornerback Devon Witherspoon, who is still sidelined with a hamstring injury. Arizona’s secondary has been battered, too, with reports from the Arizona Republic describing a day to day status for starting safety Jalen Thompson.
Commentary from The Athletic’s Nate Tice calls this matchup “a classic NFC West chess match: physical in the trenches, but with more quarterback firepower than we’ve seen from these franchises in recent years.” NBC Sports lists Mac Jones as a player to watch, but notes Seattle’s pass rush, featuring Uchenna Nwosu off the edge, could swing the game.
For those who love to wager, oddsmakers are split. Bleacher Report's consensus picks lean slightly to Arizona given their home field edge, but several analysts on ESPN’s NFL Live think Seattle’s weapons make them a live underdog. Keep an eye on the first quarter pace: both teams have started recent games hot, and a quick opening could set the tone for some Thursday night fireworks.
