Seattle Seahawks
For the third time in as many weeks, the No. 1 seed in the NFC has shuffled hands. And for the third time in as many weeks, it alternated between the 49ers and the Seahawks. The Seahawks losing 27-13 to a Cardinals team that entered Sunday with only four victories might have completely wiped away its chances of holding the No. 1 seed in the conference. Now, they need a bunch of help from other teams in an extremely unlikely scenario. Oddly though, Seattle losing home-field advantage might not be a death knell. The Seahawks have struggled at home this year, going 4-3, meaning that the one silver lining in all of this is that with the NFC playoffs no longer running through Seattle, the Seahawks will need to win on the road, where they went 7-1. But to make a bad day worse, coach Pete Carroll told reporters after the game that running backs Chris Carson and C.J. Prosise are out for the rest of the year, and that left tackle Duane Brown will have knee surgery.
