SEA 21, ARI 20

The Seattle Seahawks' playoff hopes were dashed on Sunday after they lost a heartbreaker to the Arizona Cardinals 21-20. The Seahawks were looking to win their final regular season game and secure a wild card berth, but the Cardinals had other plans.

Sam Howell started at quarterback for the Seahawks in his Seattle debut and threw for 130 yards and a touchdown. However, the Cardinals' defense was able to force three turnovers, including two interceptions, which proved to be the difference in the game.

The Seahawks finished the regular season with a record of 7-10, good for fourth place in the NFC West. They missed the playoffs for the second consecutive season.
