Overview

  • Jason Myers converted a 52-yard field goal as time expired to give Seattle a 23-20 win and a 3-1 start, dropping Arizona to 2-2.
  • Chad Ryland’s kickoff after Arizona tied the game landed short of the mandated zone, placing the ball at Seattle’s 40-yard line under the NFL’s revamped rule.
  • Sam Darnold went 18-of-26 for 242 yards and a touchdown, finding Jaxon Smith-Njigba for a 22-yard strike to set up the winning kick.
  • Seattle’s defense produced six sacks and multiple takeaways, including a bizarre early sequence when Coby Bryant’s interception became a fumble that Arizona recovered for a field goal.
  • Kyler Murray threw two fourth-quarter touchdowns to erase a 20-6 deficit but finished with two interceptions; per Sportradar, the Cardinals have lost consecutive games on the final play for the first time since moving to Arizona in 1988.
