Cardinals vs. Seahawks: Mike LaFleur says history doesn't matter
Arizona Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur is downplaying the Cardinals' recent struggles against the Seattle Seahawks.
The Arizona Cardinals have struggled against the Seattle Seahawks in recent years, especially at home. In the last decade-plus, the Cardinals have only won one home game against the Seahawks, dating back to a 37-34 overtime victory in 2020. Since then, there have been three one-score defeats for the Cardinals, including a heartbreaking 23-20 loss on a Thursday night following a road loss in San Francisco just four days prior.
Over the past five years, the Cardinals' record against the Seahawks at home stands at 1-11-1. On the road, the Cardinals have suffered four consecutive losses after a 23-13 win in 2021. The Seahawks have since claimed nine victories in the yearly two-game series, making it a significant challenge for the Cardinals to secure a win at State Farm Stadium.
When asked about the importance of history in the upcoming matchup, Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur stated that it "doesn't matter" and that the team should focus on the present and the task at hand, with the win being just another in a series of victories.
