The Seattle Seahawks are 3–1 after surviving a Thursday night thriller in Arizona, edging the Arizona Cardinals 23–20 on Jason Myers’ walk-off 52-yard field goal. What looked like a comfortable 14–3 advantage turned into a nail-biter when Kyler Murray led a furious fourth-quarter rally. In the end, Seattle steadied itself just enough to escape the desert with a win.

From my perspective, this game underscored two major truths about this team. First, Sam Darnold is playing winning football. He finished 18 of 26 for 242 yards and a touchdown, managing the game with poise and avoiding costly mistakes. And second — Jaxon Smith-Njigba is a star. JSN continues to prove why he’s the focal point of Seattle’s passing attack, hauling in 4 catches for 79 yards, including a back-breaking 36-yard grab.
