Seattle Seahawks vs. Arizona Cardinals Prediction, Pick, Odds: Will Kyler Murray, Cardinals Score Points?
One thing in life that is underrated is having action on the 4:05 pm ET NFL game on Sundays. Sure the better game is usually at 4:25 pm ET but there's just something about having action on the 4:05 game that feels right. I think it's because we get to go right into the battle the second the early slate wraps up. In many cases, games are still happening. I hate coming down from that feeling where everything is happening at once only to realize I still have to wait 20 minutes. I'm sure I'm not alone.
Back in the day, all the games started at 4:00 pm ET so we didn't have to wait. I'm sure you can all figure out why times were pushed back and it's a good reason, I'm just saying it's fun to have continuous action. Lucky for us, we've got a game this week at 4:05 pm ET that features a play with no chance of losing. Feels good.

Seahawks vs. Cardinals Prediction
Arizona Team Total Over 26.5 (-110) - DraftKings (Bet $110 to win $100)
We're at DraftKings for this one but it really doesn't matter since FanDuel has the exact same number and price. If you have to play at BetMGM, they are hanging 26.5 (-115) so they aren't too far behind the others. It's all deadly people. I'm just happy that this is one that is widely available to all people. We deserve that.
Now everybody is saying the Cardinals stink and that Kliff Kingsbury isn't what people thought he was. I would never say something like that but people are saying that. Still, I think this is a week that these Cardinals can be trusted. I know that sounds crazy given the fact that they've only topped this number once this season but stay with me here. I think I may have something we can all be proud of.
In sports, how good you are usually correlated with how good the team you're playing is. For instance, teams look better when they are playing teams that aren't good. That's a thing. They also look bad when they are playing teams that are good. That's another thing. So far, the Cardinals have played four teams in the top 13 of the opponent yards per play metric. They didn't top 26.5 points in any of those games. The only time they faced a team in the bottom half of the league in that metric, they dropped 29.
Lucky for the Cardinals, and us, they play a team in the Seattle Seahawks that ranks dead last in the NFL in opponent yards per play. That defense is an absolute sieve and they've given up at least 27 points in four of the five games they've played this season. The only time they didn't give up 27 was against the Denver Broncos when they were gifted with two goal-line fumbles. If we're being honest (we are), this could be the greatest play of our lives.
