Thursday night's NFC West showdown will be impacted by defensive injuries on both sides. The Seahawks defense is seriously hurt coming into their Week 11 matchup. They will miss both of their starting corners in Shaquill Griffin and Quinton Dunbar, and with Neiko Thorpe on IR, this leaves them with limited options outside. Going up against Kyler Murray, their issues in the secondary could be exposed, and this could quickly turn into a shootout. The Cardinals' are now missing all 3 of their starters on the defensive line as Corey Peters, Leki Fotu and Jordan Phillips are all down with injury. Mixed with the fact that they're also missing Chandler Jones, this front seven is well below strength as they face Russell Wilson. This game has serious shootout potential as two top tier passers face down depleted defenses, and it has a good chance to go over.
