Week 17 – at Seattle Seahawks

The last two seasons the Cardinals have won in Seattle in the final seconds.  Much of the personnel will be different this time around, but it still doesn’t mean the Cardinals can’t find victory again.

After a last second win on Christmas Eve in 2016 in week 16, then a late Phil Dawson field goal in last season’s finale to lead the Cardinals to victory should give them some confidence.  Dawson returns.  So does Fitz and David Johnson, they know too.

Arizona for some reason plays the Seahawks much better in Seattle than in Arizona.  The Cardinals have now won four of the past five games between the two at CenturyLink Field.

It is still a tough place to play though.  Could this game help determine a wild-card spot?  Quite possibly.

Next: Arizona Cardinals can find success in seventh round of draft

One thing for sure, the NFL sure likes these late season matchups between the two teams.  This could come down to the wire, again.  Cardinals finish 9-7.
