“I don’t know if there is either”.

Arizona’s running game had little success against the Seahawks until a late 48-yard touchdown run from Andre Ellington provided the final blow.
Seattle finished with 14 penalties for the third time in Carroll’s tenure. Both totals were season highs for the Seahawks.
“Just on to the next, but it shows that we’re here and we mean business”, Arizona safety Deone Bucannon said. “I just came out”. “When we stay on schedule and when we stay in our flow of the game, we really capitalize, I feel”.
In what figures to be the best game of Week 11, Cincinnati does appear to be a force on paper, but it forced only 12 turnovers through eight games, while San Francisco’s porous D should fold, the Rams were just lit up for three first-half touchdown passes from Jay Cutler, the Eagles haven’t found a consistent formula, and the Seahawks were just burned by Palmer for 363 yards and three scores. However, through nine weeks Seattle had been penalized just 6.4 times for 57.4 yards per contest, ranking tied for eighth and 12th, respectively. But it was a different story Sunday.
A few might deem Palmer’s celebration inappropriate, but in the words of Cam Newton, if the Seahawks didn’t like it, they should’ve kept the Cardinals out of the end zone. Michael Floyd will be day-to-day with a hamstring, Cory Redding will be day-to-day with a low ankle sprain and we’ll have more updates on Wednesday when we practice. “Our guys know that when you get an undefeated-well we’ll see if they’re undefeated, but probably undefeated – team come into your house, a first place team from the AFC, and we’ve got a lot at stake still”. We have no control over that. “It’s the only thing you can do playing this game, playing this position”. It’s not hard there. On any deflection, you always want to go and get the ball. It played into a great opportunity for them, really. “On defense, the Seahawks took three penalties in the secondary on third-and-8 or longer which gave Arizona automatic first downs, with nickel corner Deshawn Shead, cornerback Richard Sherman and linebacker Bobby Wagner drawing the flags”.
Sunday’s game embodied the storyline for this season, from the absolutely atrocious start to the comeback that stirred memories of the Seahawks’ success the past two seasons only to see their defense unable to hold onto a lead in the fourth quarter. “We got in our own way”. I think it speaks volumes about the character of the group of guys we have, especially our leader, our quarterback, and our defense.
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll spoke to reporters on Monday afternoon, and broke down Seattle’s loss to the Cardinals.
“A couple balls got away from Jimmy”, Carroll said. “They hurt us today”. “It’s a shame because we had a great plan”. “Carroll said Sunday’s officiating crew largely called the game the way the Seahawks expected”. Unfortunately for the Seattle, that proved to be bad news for the Seahawks.
Two years ago, Floyd caught a 31-yard touchdown pass with 2:13 left as Arizona handed the Seahawks their only home loss that season. He described both injuries as “pending” and “legitimate.”… Francis, a 6-foot-5, 330-pounder who went undrafted out of Maryland in 2013, appeared in one game with the Dolphins this season.
