Cardinals' Seahawks problem grows with 10th straight loss to Seattle
Jaxon Smith-Njigba finished with 9 catches for 133 yards and 3 touchdowns as Seattle's defense held Arizona to 151 total yards.
On Sunday, the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Arizona Cardinals 31-7 at State Farm Stadium, extending their winning streak against the division rival to 10 consecutive games.
Tied 7-7 at halftime, the Cardinals collapsed in the second half as Seattle scored on its opening drive and dominated, turning a competitive game into a blowout that sent fans to the exits early.
Seattle receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba finished with nine catches for 133 yards, while Arizona's offense managed only 151 total yards with wide receivers combining for four catches for 29 yards.
"They were prepared and we weren't able to hit the things we wanted to hit," Cardinals receiver Kendrick Bourne said of the team's execution struggles against Seattle's defensive scheme.
Arizona falls to 1-1 following the loss to the reigning Super Bowl champions and faces a difficult Week 3 test against the San Francisco 49ers and quarterback Brock Purdy.
