With their backs against the wall for much of the game against the defending NFL champion Seattle Seahawks, the Arizona Cardinals’ defense did what it has done all season: It bent, but didn’t break.

But in a game in which the team had its lowest offensive point total since a 58-0 defeat at Seattle two years ago, flaws and mistakes tend to be highlighted more than successes.

“We could’ve tackled a lot better,” coach Bruce Arians said after the Cardinals’ 19-3 loss Sunday at the Seahawks. “We could’ve tackled (quarterback Russell Wilson) about five more times for losses, and they ended up being big plays down the field.”
