The Cardinals score in the first quarter!
They have the ball first and get on the board with a 23-yard field goal from Matt Ammendola. It is their first points in the first quarter all season. Kyler Murray highlights the drive with a 42-yard run. They get inside the 10 but can’t get the ball into the end zone.

Thomas, the first of the Cardinals’ two third-round picks, picked up his first career sack with a third-down sack of Geno Smith to force a field goal.
With the release of Devon Kennard, it appears he will now get so more playing time.
Seahawks 3, Cardinals 3
The Seahawks tie the score at 3 with a 39-yard field goal after Smith is sacked on third down by Cameron Thomas.
Rookie running back Ken Walker’s runs of 17 yards and 34 yards get them into field goal range.
Turnover on downs after passing on field goal
On the Cardinals’ next drive, they get into field-goal range but, instead of attempting a 38-yard field goal on fourth-and-4, Kliff Kingsbury elects to go for it and Kyler Murray’s pass to Rondale Moore is short and incomplete.
Justin Pugh hurt
Just before the fourth-down attempt that failed by the Cardinals, Pugh exits the game with an injury. Max Garcia takes over at left guard. It is a knee injury and he is questionable to return.
Seahawks 6, Cardinals 3
The Seahawks force the Cardinals to go three-and-out as Uchenna Nwosu has a third-down sack of Kyler Murray.
The Seahawks get into the red zone but Rashard Lawrence tackles Ken Walker for a loss on third down and the Seahawks kick a 27-yard field goal to take the lead.
It is a 10-play, 51-yard drive.
