SEATTLE (AP) — Kurt Warner completed 32 of 41 passes for 276 yards and two touchdowns while tying an NFL record for being the fastest to throw for 30,000 yards in a career. Arizona scored 17 points before Seattle knew what hit it in a 27-3 victory Sunday.

Larry Fitzgerald tied his career high with 13 receptions for 100 yards and a touchdown for the Cardinals (3-2), who led 14-0 before Seattle's offense ran its first play 12 minutes into the first quarter.

That was after a 15-play opening drive on which Warner completed all nine throws, and after the Seahawks failed to cover the ensuing pooch kickoff that set up another touchdown.

Arizona's swarming defense held Seattle (2-4), which romped 41-0 over Jacksonville last week, to 128 yards and its fewest points in a home game since 2002.
