Can the Seahawks make the playoffs?

The Seattle Seahawks are hoping for some Week 18 magic to clinch the final wildcard spot in the NFC playoffs.

Ahead of Week 18's games, the Seahawks are the eighth seed in the NFC with an 8-8 record, the same as the Green Bay Packers who currently occupy the seventh seed. 

Seattle will require help elsewhere if they are to reach the playoffs, but their first task is to beat the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium.

If they can beat Arizona, then all eyes will be on the Packers' game against the Chicago Bears - and if the Bears can win at Lambeau Field then Seattle will steal the seventh seed from Green Bay.

However, if the Seahawks lose in the desert against the Cardinals then that will end any hopes of a postseason adventure.

Who do the Seahawks still have to play?
