GLENDALE, AZ — Russell Wilson threw three touchdown passes, Rashaad Penny ran for 173 yards and a touchdown, and the Seattle Seahawks spoiled a shot at the NFC West title for the Arizona Cardinals by beating them 38-30 on Sunday.
It was a back-and-forth game that was supplemented by a healthy dose of scoreboard watching.
The Cardinals were still in the running for a the NFC West title with a win on Sunday and the 49ers beat the Rams in overtime.
That could not have shaken out any worse for the Cardinals. Blow chance to win division AND get tougher opponent (IMO) facing Rams rather than Cowboys. Oof

In the end, the scoreboard’s results were moot.
The Cardinals couldn’t take care of business against the Seahawks and will settle for the No. 5 seed in the bracket.
