Arizona Cardinals Defense Faces Another Tough Test

Arizona Cardinals Defense Faces Another Tough Test

11 months ago

As the Arizona Cardinals defense gears up for a critical Week 18 clash with the Seattle Seahawks, the stakes are high. The Cardinals' defensive unit, showing resilience in the previous week, now faces a Seahawks offense that at first glance seems to be another winnable game. However, a deeper dive into the statistics reveals a challenging matchup. The Seahawks boast an 8th-ranked passing Off. DVOA (26.4%) and a formidable rushing attack (19th, -7.8%). Meanwhile, the Arizona defense, ranking 31st in pass DVOA (29.1%), faces an uphill battle. With the Seahawks fighting for a playoff spot, their offensive prowess could exploit the Cardinals' defensive vulnerabilities. Fantasy managers should exercise caution in Week 18, considering the Seahawks' offensive efficiency and the Cardinals' defensive struggles. To that end, keeping the Arizona defense on the fantasy bench would be a prudent move in this potentially high-octane face-off.
