Former Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray completed 25-of-35 passes for 175 yards and two touchdowns in the Arizona Cardinals’ 31-21 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. He also added 60 rushing yards.
Arizona (3-6) started strong with Murray completing a 22-yard touchdown pass to DeAndre Hopkins, giving them a 7-3 lead near the end of the first quarter. But the Seahawks (6-3) bounced back in the second quarter with a touchdown to take a 10-7 halftime lead.
Murray and the Cardinals offense were quiet for the majority of the second half, only scoring one touchdown.

The Cardinals retook the lead in the third quarter on a defensive touchdown, but another Seahawks score put Arizona behind 17-14 heading into the fourth quarter.
In the fourth quarter, the Seahawks went up 24-14. Despite a late comeback effort sparked by Murray, who cut the deficit to three points on a six-yard touchdown toss to Zach Ertz with 3:32 left, the Cardinals would come up short as Seattle scored a late touchdown to seal the 31-21 victory.
