Arizona Cardinals Football Club Game Release Game #15 THIS WEEK S GAME The Cardinals will look to earn their 10 th win of the season, and seventh in eight games, when they travel to Seattle for a matchup against the division-leading Seahawks. Arizona will also be looking for its first win in Seattle since 2009 while facing a team that has won 14 straight on its home field. This week s game features two teams that have combined for 21 wins this season, more than any other teams that will square off in Week 16. The contest also showcases two of the NFL s top defenses as Arizona s top-ranked run defense looks to shut down Seattle s second-ranked rushing attack. At 9-5, the Cardinals are fighting for a spot in the postseason in the midst of a tight NFC playoff field. A win this week would give Arizona double-digit wins in a season for the first time since 2009 and it will also keep the Cardinals playoff chances alive entering a Week 17 matchup vs. the Niners. Arizona improved to 9-5 with its 37-34 OT victory in Tennessee last week. Despite holding a 34-17 lead late in the fourth quarter, the Cardinals needed OT to earn the win after Tennessee scored 17 points in the final four minutes of regulation to tie up the score. CB Antoine Cason provided the highlights on defense, recording two INTs one returned for a TD and one in OT to set up the game-winning FG and also recovering a muffed kickoff. On offense, QB Carson Palmer posted his fifth game with a 100.0+ passer rating and RB Andre Ellington became just the second rookie in team history to record 70+ rushing yards and 80+ receiving yards in a game. Next week, Arizona returns home for the regular season finale against the division rival 49ers. Seattle remains home as they take on the St. Louis Rams.

QB Russell Wilson threw 3 scoring passes and Marshawn Lynch ran for 91 yards and a TD. Seattle took advantage of two Carson Palmer interceptions, converting each into touchdowns. Cards LB John Abraham notched 2 sacks of Wilson and the AZ defense forced two fumbles of the QB, each of which led to AZ scores. However, Seattle s dangerous pass rush got to Palmer 7 times and overall held the Cards to 30 rushing yards on 18 attempts. The Seahawks jumped ahead early after Wilson threw TD passes on each of their first two possessions. The first was a 31-yarder to WR Sidney Rice at the end of a 5-play, 83-yard series. The ensuing AZ drive ended when Earl Thomas intercepted a tipped Palmer pass at the SEA28 on a play that was initially ruled incomplete but reversed after a challenge. From there, Wilson took Seattle 72 yards in 11 plays and capped the drive with a 15-yard TD pass to TE Zach Miller. Seattle reached the AZ43 on its next possession but failed to pick up a 1 st down on 2 nd or 3 rd and 1. They went for it on 4 th down but linemen Frostee Rucker and Calais Campbell combined to stuff Wilson on a sneak attempt in a key momentum swing. That stop led to a 49-yard Jay Feely FG that made it 14-3 and on the 2 nd play of the next Seattle drive the D again came up big. LB Matt Shaughnessy sacked Wilson forcing a fumble that Campbell recovered at the SEA3 (Campbell started just 4 days after leaving the game at San Francisco on a stretcher with a bruised spine). One play later RB Rashard Mendenhall ran it in to make it 14-10. Seattle tacked on a 51-yard Steven Hauschka FG with 0:05 left in the half to make it 17-10 Seattle. On Arizona s opening drive of the 3 rd quarter, Feely hit a 52-yard FG that pulled the Cards to within 4 at 17-13 but it was as close as they would get. The Seahawks answered by going 80 yards in 10 plays on their next drive and Wilson s 1-yard TD pass to TE Kellen Davis made it 24-13. CB Brandon Browner then picked off a Palmer pass and returned it to the 1 where Lynch punched it in for a 31-13 lead late in the 3 rd. The Cards would add a FG and TD an 8-yarder from Palmer to rookie WR Jaron Brown - in the 4 th quarter but the deficit was too great to overcome. SEAHAWKS 7 10 14 3 34 CARDINALS 0 10 3 9 22 Team Qtr.

This week, the Cardinals will look to end a twogame winless streak against the Seahawks and earn their first win in Seattle since 2009. The Cards and Seahawks have split the season series each of the last two seasons and Arizona will need a win this week to break even in 2013. Seattle won the first meeting this season 34-22.

LAST WEEK S GAME CARDINALS 37, Titans 34 (OT) December 15, 2013 LP Field (69,143) In a chilly late afternoon game in Nashville, the Cardinals seemed to clinch their 9 th win of the year when CB Antoine Cason returned an INT off Ryan Fitzpatrick for a TD to put AZ up 34-17 with 6:13 left. But the Titans stormed back to score 17 points in the final 3:12 to send the game to overtime. On the opening drive of the extra period Cason again picked off Fitzpatrick to set-up Jay Feely s game-winning FG. With the win AZ improved to 9-5 and remained a game behind San Fran & Carolina for a wild card spot. Rookie RB Andre Ellington became the first Cardinal in more than a decade to lead the team in both rushing and receiving yards in the same game and fellow RB Rashard Mendenhall scored two rushing TDs. The Titans opened the scoring with a 45-yard Rob Bironas FG on their 1 st series. AZ responded with a 77-yard drive on which Ellington had a 13-yard run & 26-yard reception; it ended with Mendenhall s 1-yard TD run. On the final play of the 1 st quarter, Fitzpatrick scrambled in the pocket before finding Chris Johnson down the left sideline for a 25-yard TD. The Cards again answered. Feely s 25-yard FG capped a 13-play, 67-yard drive that made it 10-10 at intermission. On the opening kickoff of the 2 nd half, LB Patrick Bailey muffed a short kickoff and Cason recovered at the TEN23. That led to a 47-yard Feely FG that put AZ up 13-10. Tennessee responded with a lengthy drive that ended on a 1-yard TD catch from Delanie Walker. On the 15-play, 74-yard series they converted four separate 3 rd -n-longs and were aided by 4 defensive penalties. For the game AZ was penalized 9 times for 69 yards by Pete Morelli s crew (Titans 3-16). Late in the 3 rd, Carson Palmer s 6-yard TD pass to TE Jake Ballard put AZ up 20-17. After the Titans missed a 50-yard FG early in the 4 th, the Cards cashed in with a TD drive that made it 27-17. Cason s pick 6 on the next series made it 34-17 before TEN mounted its comeback. Fitzpatrick s 10-yard TD pass to Michael Preston made it 34-24 with 3:12 left. After a 3-n-out, the Titans got a 24-yard Bironas FG with :47 remaining and then recovered the on-side kick. Preston tied it at 34 with :10 left when he caught an 8- yard pass from Fitzpatrick, sending the game to OT. Tennessee won the toss and got the ball first. On the 3 rd play of OT, the Titans were at the AZ43 when Cason picked off Fitzpatrick and returned it to the AZ46. Five Mendenhall runs gained 22 yards and a Jim Dray catch netted 9, putting AZ in position for Feely s game-winner that went right down the middle.

CARDS THROUGH 14 The Cardinals defeated the Tennessee Titans 37-34 in OT last week, improving to 9-5 on the year and securing their first winning season since 2009 (10-6) and fourth winning season in Arizona (9-7 in both 2008 and 1998). With a 9-5 record so far in 2013, the Cardinals have their best record through 14 games since a 9-5 mark in 2009. The 2013 season represents the ninth time in team history the Cardinals had at least nine wins through the first 14 games of a season.

It would also mark the seventh time in franchise history that the team posted 10+ wins in a season. Since University of Phoenix Stadium opened in 2006, the Cardinals have five seasons in which they are.500 or better. They had two in the 18 seasons prior to that. Arizona has a 6-1 record dating back to their Week 8 victory over Atlanta. In that span, the Cards are tied with Seattle for the second-best record in the NFL behind Carolina (7-1).

In 2011, the Cardinals became the first team in NFL history to win four OT games in a single season, posting a perfect 4-0 mark in OT. CONSISTENT SCORING After scoring at least three points in all four quarters of regulation last week in Tennessee, the Cardinals have scored at least three points in 11 consecutive regulation quarters. That ranks as the second-longest active streak in the NFL behind only Cleveland (13 straight quarters). Arizona has scored at least three points in 26 of the last 27 quarters this season dating back to their Week 8 game against the Falcons. The only quarter in which the Cards did not score during that period was in the first quarter against the Eagles (Week 13). PILING UP POINTS After posting 37 points against the Titans last week, Arizona has scored 341 points so far in 2013, which already surpasses their point total for the 2010 (289), 2011 (312) and 2012 (250) seasons. Arizona is currently on pace to score 390 points in 2013. At that rate, it would represent the fifth-highest season point total in franchise history.

A PAIR OF SAFETIES LB John Abraham s sack of Rams QB Kellen Clemens in the end zone during the third quarter of Arizona s Week 14 win over St. Louis was the Cardinals second safety of the 2013 season. The first came in the Week 5 victory over Carolina when DE Calais Campbell sacked QB Cam Newton in the end zone.

TURNOVERS TELL A TALE The Cardinals finished last week s game with a +3 turnover ratio after forcing three takeaways and not committing a turnover against the Titans. With the win, Arizona improved to 6-0 this season when winning the turnover battle. When the Cardinals lose the turnover battle, they have a 1-3 record. During the six games in which the Cardinals have won the turnover battle they have a +11 ratio and have scored 50 points off those turnovers. Opponents had five total takeaways in those games and scored nine points off those turnovers. In the past few weeks, the Cardinals improved dramatically when it came to taking advantage of turnovers. In the last two games both victories Arizona recorded five takeaways and scored 27 points off those turnovers, averaging 5.4 points per takeaway. In the previous 12 games Arizona scored 67 points on 23 takeaways, averaging 2.9 points per takeaway. THE HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE The Cardinals improved their home mark to 6-1 with a win over St. Louis in Week 14. With the win, the Cards matched their highest total for home wins in a single season since the NFL went to the 16-game schedule in 1978. Only New Orleans (7), Denver (7) and New England (7) have more home wins than the Cardinals this season. After scoring 30 points in the win over the Rams, the Cardinals have scored at least 27 points in every game during their current four-game home win streak. For the year, Arizona has averaged 27.6 points in its seven home games while allowing just 17.0 points per game. During their current four-game home win streak, the Cardinals have outscored opponents 124-58, an average margin of 16.5 points per game.

RECORD WINS OUTSIDE THE WEST After defeating the Titans last week, Arizona finished the 2013 season with a 4-0 record against the AFC South and earned its first season sweep of an interconference series since the realignment in 2002. Combined with its 3-1 record against the NFC South, Arizona finished with a 7-1 against the NFL s South divisions in 2013. Arizona posted an 8-2 record against teams outside their division this season, establishing a new record for wins outside the division since the realignment in 2002. QUICK TURNAROUND Bruce Arians has been a part of 13 different playoff teams in his 20 seasons as an NFL coach. He has an 11-11 playoff record, including three Super Bowl appearances and two Super Bowl titles (XL, XLIII). He has also been known for quick turnarounds where he has coached and has shown that ability so far this season with the Cardinals. Arizona sits at 9-5 on the season and is in the middle of a heated postseason push in December after taking over an Arizona team that finished 5-11 in 2012. The Cardinals (+4) join Kansas City (+9) and Philadelphia (+4) as the three teams in the NFL this season who have already surpassed their 2012 win total by at least four games. ARIANS KEEPS ON WINNING Bruce Arians has now recorded nine wins this season in his first year with the Cardinals.

During the 2008 postseason, he broke virtually every major playoff receiving record, establishing new single-season marks for receptions (30), receiving yards (546) and TDs (7). His four 100-yard receiving games that postseason established a new NFL record for consecutive games with 100 yards receiving. His nine TD receptions in six career postseason games are an NFL record for a player in their first six career playoff contests. With a franchise record 103 receptions during the 2005 season, he became the youngest player in NFL history to record a 100- catch campaign when he reached the mark at 22 years, 123 days old. Led the NFL in receiving TDs in both the 2008 (12) and 2009 (13) seasons. In addition to his 10 receiving TDs in 2007, he became the first player in franchise history to record at least 10 TDs in three consecutive seasons. At 29 years, 23 days old when the Cardinals faced the Eagles in Week 3 of the 12 season, Fitzgerald became the youngest player in NFL history to reach 700 career receptions. The previous record was held by Dallas TE Jason Witten, who was 30 years, 133 days old when he reached the mark in Week 2 of the 2012 season. At 29 years, 44 days old, he joined Randy Moss (28 years, 314 days) as the only two players in NFL history to reach 10,000 career receiving yards before the age of 30. One of just 13 players in NFL history to record 11,000 receiving yards and 85 TD receptions in their career. One of just nine players in NFL history with at least 10 TDs in five different seasons.
