00:00So when you break down Arizona seat Seattle today, what do you like?

00:04Well, it's an interesting because Seattle has won three straight heading into this game

00:07They've won those games by an average margin of six points per game and they defeated Arizona a couple weeks ago in their building

00:1416 to 6 completely handcuffed Kyler Murray held that team to field goals instead of touchdowns limited James Connor

00:20I think he only had eight yards rushing in terms of that matchup if they bring that type of effort

00:25They're gonna win it now, Arizona has lost two straight, but they're four and two at home

00:29I like what I saw in regards to the first half of that matchup against a very good, Minnesota

00:34Defense Tyler throws for 246. I think this is a big game for Kyler as much as I I think that Seattle

00:42You know is the better team heading into this matchup because they're more consistent

00:45I'll bounce back with Arizona outright today

00:48And I think the game is a dead over completely different from what we saw two weeks ago in Seattle

00:53I think they'll push tempo. I think Kyler we how about Trey McBride to 12 receptions 96 yards

00:59We talked about powers. We don't talk about McBride enough. I think it's a breakout performance for Arizona

01:04Give me Arizona in the over today

01:06Yeah, if McBride was on one of those power teams that we always watch on TV

01:09Let's just say it was a Dallas Cowboy

01:11I mean be one of the biggest superstars in the NFL still seem the

01:13Unknowing even though he gets 12 to 13 targets a week and usually dominates

01:17But this seems to be like Joe a springboard game for me if you're the Arizona Cardinals

01:21You take a look at two weeks ago to go to Seattle. It's hard to win on the road

01:24It's hard to win on Seattle. I get it

01:25They did play decent football that one little fluky pick six throw it up which went back the other way which doing them in

01:30But make no mistakes about it. The Vikings one of the better football teams in the NFL

01:34They had them dead to rights and let that one get away

01:36So it's one of those where if you're Jonathan Gannon

01:39Let me sort of circle the wagons two straight losses should have won last week didn't win

01:43We have to win this week here, and I think they get the job done

01:45But the reason I say it's a springboard game look at the next couple games after this

01:48Patriots and Panthers before you take on the Rams and the 49ers to end the season you need a 3-0 jet here

01:55And I think they get the job done as well for me Kevin

01:57I'm gonna go ahead and say you know what Arizona's my play today, so Seattle this game

02:01It's a game that especially when I was betting a lot more sides early in the year

02:04I had a few of these where you show me the line on you know Monday

02:09And I go boom Arizona no doubt in my mind by the time we get to this that's gonna Sunday

02:15I've completely flipped my brain around and it's like nah Arizona's obvious

02:21Seattle the defense is playing really well, which it is right. They're awful by the defense is playing very well

02:27Arizona's not playing well all the site. I don't think Kyler's been super trustworthy

02:31I'm on him actually to throw an interception in this game at a plus price

02:34We've seen Seattle pick off six consecutive opposing quarterbacks. I think it's a nice number

02:39But it's why I step back. I actually

02:42Weirdly lean Seahawks now, but I'm this is one of those games

02:45And I think every better has these when the games over you go. I knew it

02:50It's like someone in the room should be there actually you didn't know anything. Yeah

03:00Yeah, but I need someone to say to me right like yeah, listen, I'll tell the boat

03:05But it's not serious. I made that my best

03:08All over Arizona on Monday by Tuesday, Seattle

03:11I almost had a seat on the team, but that's that is to me

03:15How I'm starting to feel when it comes to this football game

03:18And I think part of the reason is if you kind of strip everything down of how they're playing coming in or where the game

03:25is I

03:26Think there are a lot of similarities between these teams where all right, the defenses are playing a little bit better

03:32There's a few key skill guys that you like Metcalf. You mentioned McBride, right?

03:37I think in Smith and Jig was really really come on

03:39We know James Conner usually reliable and then two quarterbacks where on any given day

03:46You're like man, do they got a dude because Kyler's great games are unreal

03:50And I know at least you've never big been big on Gino, right?

03:53But where you look at Gino, you're like, yeah, this is gonna be their quarterback for the next half decades

03:58Yeah, and and that's where we're gonna get into this in a little bit more

04:01But we talk about the NFC outright market if you could find conviction on who you believe

04:08Is gonna win the NFC West right? I think that is the best bet you can make in the NFC outright

04:14It's a great look and that's why when we do look at just the NFC West. I you only look to the top three teams

04:20I'm completely writing off San Francisco at 14 to 1 so for me though. It isn't Seattle

04:26It is Arizona and the LA Rams

04:28I do believe in both of those teams more than I believe in the Seattle Seahawks

04:32We saw this and think about this right Seattle has won three straight when Arizona went into Seattle. They had won four straight

04:39They potentially were playing their best football up until that point went on the road and got handcuffed, right?

04:44And think about how Seattle responded. So I understand the assessment they fall behind, you know, 14 nothing 21 7

04:51They fight and they win that game against Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets still a difficult game when you're down by double digits

04:58They grind they shut down that offense and they win it by five points

05:01So they're playing with confidence right now

05:03The biggest thing for me is that I just believe in Gannon that defense, you know prior to that

05:09Seattle game was playing lights out and they held Seattle to only 16 points. There are four and two at home

05:14I just think we'll get a bounce back spot playing at home. And again, I do feel that they push tempo

05:19That's why I love the over today

05:20And by the way on the opposite side here is I just told that breakdown of the Arizona team like now's the time to get

05:24Going for Seattle you got at the Cardinals today, then the Packers and the Vikings back-to-back, but you got them at home

05:30But still that's a little bit to run through right now

05:32Which is why I look towards Arizona out in the West and say you know what?

05:35They just might be that team and today a massive game if they could pick up that W
