The Cardinals are tied for the division lead with the 49ers. Both teams sit at 1-1. The Seahawks are 0-2, having lost on the road to the 49ers and Steelers. This will be Seattle's home opener.

Over/Under
Bodog has the over/under for Sunday's clash at 43. Even though the Cardinals' defense is not great, most of these points will have to come from Arizona.
The Seahawks' offense has been very poor this season.
I would take the under here.
Spread
Cardinals (-3.5).
The Cardinals have issues, but this is a game that they should win comfortably. In football terms, a four-point win is quite manageable.
So, take the Cardinals pretty confidently in this one. They are not upset proof by any means, but Seattle has looked awful in two games.
Key Injuries
No major injuries to report for Arizona.
Seahawks' receiver Sidney Rice's status is still unclear.
Seahawks' guard Robert Gallery (groin) is out.
Fantasy Big Plays
While they are certainly a unit with question marks, Arizona's defense is set for a strong week against the Seahawks.
Cardinals' QB Kevin Kolb will likely be on the field a lot. When you have Larry Fitzgerald at your disposal, that's a good thing.
Cardinals' RB Beanie Wells is off to a good start. Look for that to continue in Week 3.
Keys to Cardinals' Win
If the Cardinals don't make mistakes, this is a game that they really should win.
Keys to Seahawks' Win
If the Seahawks can capitalize on whatever mistakes the Cardinals make, they have a chance. Seattle still has one of the toughest crowds for opposing teams. The Seahawks must get them involved.
Prediction
The Cardinals are a much better team than the Seahawks. Look for them to get an early lead and cruise to a relatively easy win.
Cardinals 31, Seahawks 10
