The Cardinals handed the Seahawks their only home loss in 2013, winning 17-10 on Dec. 22 to end Seattles 14-game home win streak and move within striking distance of the franchises first postseason berth since 2009.

Wilson also carried the ball 10 times for 73 yards. Its a special win because we did it together, said Seahawks safety Earl Thomas. For the first time this year, I think we played for pure reasons. Steven Hauschka made 4-of-5 field goals in the win. Drew Stanton connected on 14-of-26 passes for 149 yards and an interception for the Cardinals (9-2), who lost for the first time since Oct. 5 at Denver. Everybody took turns today. It wasnt one position group or anything like that. Offensively, we didnt play well enough to win, said Stanton. Any time you score three points and come in here and only put up that number, youre not going to be successful.
