Arizona rallies by Forsett, Seahawks

Warner passes for 200th career touchdown

Kurt Warner passed for his 200th touchdown in the Cardinals (6-3) win over the Seahawks (3-6) 31-20.

The Seahawks jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead thanks to an 11-yard touchdown by Justin Forsett and a 31-yard catch by John Carlson. Forsett, who replaced an injured Julius Jones, ran for 123 yards and one touchdown while adding an extra 26 yards through the air.

However the 14 point lead was quickly erased as the Cardinals scored 31 of the next 37 points.

"[Arizona] has a ton of talent on offense," Mora said. "They started making plays."

Arizona Rookie Beanie Wells had two rushing touchdowns in the second half, one of them giving the Cardinals the lead for good. Wells has had fumbling problems early this season, but is starting to win over his teammates trust.

"I think we all see why we drafted him where we did," Warner said, "and what he brings to the table and the power and the strength and explosion that he brings to an offense."

Matt Hasselbeck, playing with an injured shoulder, went 26 for 52 for 315 yards and one touchdown and two interceptions. The most costly of the two interceptions came late in the game with the Seahawks were three yards from scoring. Hasselbeck nearly dropped the snap and attempted to dump it off to Forsett, but Cardinals� Adrian Wilson dove in for the interception.

"The shoulder is OK. It's the same, no worse," Hasselbeck said. "I felt like last week I didn't really have much to offer, by way of zip on the ball, but I felt much better this week."

The Seahawks� offense made it into the redzone four times in the game, but only managed to score once after being stopped at the one-yard line, settling for an Olindo Mare field goal.

The Seahawks will be playing the rest of the season in urgency. They are three games behind Arizona for a playoff spot. Next week they travel to the Minnesota Vikings (8-1) in a very tough match-up.
