Tonight at 8:25 p.m. the Arizona Cardinals (3-3) will try to establish themselves as true threats in the NFC West when they host the division leading Seattle Seahawks (5-1) on Thursday Night Football, being broadcast on NFL Network. Live stream the game here; Cardinals fans can listen to the radio broadcast on KTAR-AM, while Seahawks fans can tune in to KIRO-97.3 FM.
The Seattle Seahawks have a sterling record through six games this season, but haven't always won pretty. Last week's victory over the Tennessee Titans was one such occasion; the Seahawks fumbled the rock five times and lost two, but still earned a W.
"It's nice to learn while you are winning and I think that's where we are," coach Pete Carroll said. "That's what we're hoping to continue."
They also took a while to get into gear offensively, something that wasn't happening to them as 2012 wound down and they made their playoff push.
"I don't know if we'll be able to reach the levels that we saw late last year where we were scoring points at a huge rate (while winning the final five regular-season games). That was an enormous run that we had. But that's good to expect that and I'd like to see that too," Carroll said.
Tonight, they'll take on the Cardinals, who Carroll said present an entirely new set of challenges from last season. "There are things that look similar, but it's not the same. All kinds of stuff has changed, so we have to look at them all over again," Carroll said of the Bruce Arians-led Cards.
The Cardinals best weapon, Larry Fitzgerald, may have a rough go of things tonight. He's facing one of the best cornerbacks in the league, Richard Sherman. On top of that, he's dealing with a nagging hamstring injury.
"It gets a little better and then he plays on it and it gets worse," Arians said. "So hopefully we can continue to nurse it into the small open week and get it better."
