Trust = spike production for that player
Quarterback
Kyler Murray (TRUST): Murray has had an uninspiring open to the season, throwing for 6.5 yards per pass attempt in all five games this season and averaging a league-low 8.8 yards per completed pass.
That said, he still has three top-eight scoring weeks and everyone is getting there versus Seattle.
The Seahawks are allowing a league-high 8.9 yards per pass attempt and 13.3 yards per completion, a 5.4% touchdown rate (27th), and 0.54 passing points per attempt (30th). All of that has come against Russell Wilson, Jimmy Garoppolo (with a touch of Trey Lance), Marcus Mariota, Jared Goff, and Andy Dalton.
As wild as all of the efficiency is compared to their competition, Seattle has allowed just one QB1 scoring week because they have faced just 29.8 attempts per game (the third-fewest in the league). Given Arizona’s struggles to run the football paired with their backfield injuries, I would anticipate that number being much higher this weekend.
