The Seattle Seahawks are getting ready to take on the Arizona Cardinals at home to complete their season series in Week 9.

The Seahawks have come out on top the last 10 times against the Cardinals, including their Week 2 matchup at State Farm Stadium.

The Seahawks are coming off a Week 8 loss on Monday Night Football against the Chicago Bears, while the Cardinals pulled out a gutsy comeback victory against the Dallas Cowboys, which resulted in a quarterback change.

The team traded Jacoby Brissett to the Baltimore Ravens and inserted Gardner Minshew into the starting lineup. This is his first start of the season and his first overall start since Week 16 of the 2025 campaign, when he was Patrick Mahomes' backup with the Kansas City Chiefs.

With the stage set, here's a look at the announcers, referee crew, and uniform combination for the Seahawks and Cardinals in their divisional showdown.
