GLENDALE, Ariz. — Everything the Seahawks weren’t last Sunday in a surprising home loss to the New Orleans Saints they were this Sunday in beating the Arizona Cardinals, 27-10.
The Seahawks started fast — leading at the end of the first quarter and halftime for the first time this season in building a 20-3 halftime lead.
They were efficient — no turnovers for the game and no penalties during a first half in which they took control of the game.
And they were opportunistic, a pick-six by defensive end Jadeveon Clowney in the first quarter giving the Seahawks an early cushion they would never relinquish.
