The only teams to rank ahead of the Seahawks were the Miami Dolphins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Philadelphia Eagles and Detroit Lions.

The Seattle Seahawks find themselves in first place in the NFC West after a dominant defensive performance from Leonard Williams and crew against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday in a 16-6 victory.

The Arizona Cardinals could not keep up their recent success. Coming off their bye week, they failed to score a touchdown and were limited only 298 yards as the Seattle Seahawks defeated them 16-6 at Lumen Field. Kyler Murray threw a pick-six and was sacked five times, and the Arizona offense was only 3-for-12 on third down.
