Charbonnet runs for career-high 134 yards, 2 TDs as NFC West-leading Seahawks beat Cardinals 30-18

Associated Press  

GLENDALE, Ariz. — On a play that didn’t particularly matter in the final seconds of the fourth quarter, Seattle’s defense was swarming anyway, chasing Arizona’s Kyler Murray across the field before the quarterback dejectedly slid to the ground for a sack as the clock hit zero. Zach Charbonnet ran for a career-high 134 yards and two touchdowns, Geno Smith threw for 233 yards and a score, and the defense had two crucial interceptions in the first quarter. “It’s tough to tackle that guy in the open field,” Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said. “I’ve got to find some answers to get us going a little bit, because we haven’t played great the past couple weeks,” second-year Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said. I’ve got to go back to the drawing board tomorrow, get these things corrected, put them in better position, and we’ve got to win a game.” The Seahawks took a 10-7 lead in the first quarter on back-to-back big plays by the defense and then the offense.
