The '''Arizona Cardinals''' are a professional [[American football]] team based in the [[Phoenix metropolitan area]]. The Cardinals compete in the [[National Football League]] (NFL) as a member of the [[National Football Conference]] (NFC) [[NFC West|West]] division.

Before the {{Cardinals NFL season|1988}} season, the team moved to [[Tempe, Arizona]], a suburb of Phoenix, where it played  home games for the next 18 seasons at [[Sun Devil Stadium]] on the campus of [[Arizona State University]]. In {{Cardinals NFL season|2006}}, the team moved to their current home field in suburban Glendale, although their executive offices and training facility remain in Tempe. From 1988 to 2012 (except 2005, when they trained in [[Prescott, Arizona|Prescott]]), the Cardinals conducted their annual summer training camp at [[Northern Arizona University]] in [[Flagstaff, Arizona|Flagstaff]]. The Cardinals moved their training camp to State Farm Stadium, then known as University of Phoenix Stadium, in 2013.

The Cardinals have won two NFL championships, both while the team was in Chicago. The first, in {{Cardinals NFL season|1925}}, was [[1925 NFL Championship controversy|disputed]] by supporters of the runner-up [[Pottsville Maroons]]. Their [[1947 NFL Championship Game|second]], and the first to be won in a [[History of the National Football League championship|championship game]], came in {{Cardinals NFL season|1947}}, nearly two decades before the [[Super Bowl I|first]] [[Super Bowl]]. They returned to the title game to defend in [[1948 NFL Championship Game|1948]], but lost the rematch 7–0 in a snowstorm in [[Philadelphia]].

The team has since suffered many losing seasons and, as of 2024, has [[List of NFL franchise post-season droughts|the longest active championship drought]] in North American sports at 77 seasons (one more than MLB's [[Cleveland Guardians]], who last won the [[World Series]] in 1948).

=== Chicago Cardinals (1920–1959) ===
{{Main|Chicago Cardinals}}
[[File:Morgan athletic club team.jpg|thumb|left|The Morgan Athletic Club (pictured c. 1900), predecessor to the Arizona Cardinals|191x191px]]

The franchise dates to 1898, when a neighborhood group gathered to play on the [[South Side, Chicago|South Side]] of [[Chicago]], calling themselves the '''Morgan Athletic Club'''. Chicago painting and building contractor [[Chris O'Brien (American football)|Chris O'Brien]] acquired the team, which he moved to [[Normal Park|Normal Field]] on Racine Avenue. The team was known as the '''Racine Normals''' until 1901, when O'Brien bought used jerseys from the [[University of Chicago]]. After he described the faded [[maroon]] clothing as "[[Cardinal (color)|Cardinal red]]", the team became the '''Racine Street Cardinals'''. Eventually in 1920, the team became a charter member of the American Professional Football Association (APFA), which was rechristened the [[National Football League]] (NFL) two years later. The team entered the league as the Racine Cardinals, but changed their name to the '''Chicago Cardinals''' in 1922 to avoid confusion with the [[Racine Legion|Horlick-Racine Legion]], who entered the league the same year.<ref>{{Cite book|title = To the NFL: You Sure Started Somethin': A Historical Guide of All 32 NFL Teams and the Cities They've Played In|last = Griffith|first = R.D.|publisher = Dorrance Publishing|year = 2012|isbn = 978-1434916815|page = 2}}</ref>

==== NFL champions (1925) ====
In [[1925 NFL season|1925]], the Cardinals were [[1925 NFL Championship controversy|awarded the NFL Championship]] after the [[Pottsville Maroons]] were suspended for playing a game in what was deemed "another team's territory."<ref name="q935">{{cite web |title=Fleming: Cardinals/Pottsville curse |url=https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs07/columns/story?columnist=fleming_david&id=3222796 |website=[[ESPN]] |date=2008-01-30 |last1=Fleming |first1=David |access-date=2024-07-31}}</ref> Having beat the Cardinals in a head-to-head game earlier in the season, the Pottsville Maroons won their extra game against the [[University of Notre Dame]], helping them finish the year with the same record as the Cardinals. The Cardinals were also guilty of breaking NFL rules by scheduling two additional games against the Hammond Pros and the Milwaukee Badgers, both of whom had already disbanded for the season. The game against the Badgers spurred a scandal when the Badgers filled out their roster with four high school players, in violation of NFL rules.

==== NFL Champions (1947) ====
During the post-[[World War II]] years, the team reached two straight NFL finals against the [[Philadelphia Eagles]], winning in [[1947 NFL Championship Game|1947]] (eight months after [[Charles Bidwill]]'s death) but losing the following year.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Championship - Philadelphia Eagles at Chicago Cardinals - December 28th, 1947 |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/194712280crd.htm |access-date=2024-07-31 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]]}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Championship - Chicago Cardinals at Philadelphia Eagles - December 19th, 1948 |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/194812190phi.htm |access-date=2024-07-31 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]]}}</ref> In the late 1950s, after years of bad seasons and losing fans to their crosstown rivals, the [[Chicago Bears]], the Cardinals were almost bankrupt, and owner [[Violet Bidwill Wolfner]] became interested in moving the team to a new city.

=== St. Louis Cardinals (1960–1987) ===
{{main|St. Louis Cardinals (NFL)}}

Due to the formation of the rival [[American Football League]], the NFL allowed Bidwill to move the team to [[St. Louis]], Missouri, where they became the '''[[History of the St. Louis Cardinals (NFL)|St. Louis Cardinals]]'''. They were locally called the "Big Red", the "Gridbirds" or the "Football Cardinals" to avoid confusion with the local [[St. Louis Cardinals|baseball team]] of the same name.<ref>{{cite news|last=Wyche|first=Steve|title=Before coming to desert, Cards were substandard in St. Louis|url=http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/story/09000d5d80e52e28/article/before-coming-to-desert-cards-were-substandard-in-st-louis|publisher=NFL Enterprises, LLC|website=SuperBowl.com|date=June 29, 2011|access-date=June 11, 2016|quote=Having grown up in St. Louis, I was always resigned to the fact that the football Cardinals, regardless of where they were located, would never play in a Super Bowl.|archive-date=April 20, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160420090049/http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/story/09000d5d80e52e28/article/before-coming-to-desert-cards-were-substandard-in-st-louis|url-status=live}}</ref> During the Cardinals' 28-year stay in St. Louis, they advanced to the playoffs just three times (1974, 1975 and 1982), never hosting or winning. They did, however, win the [[Playoff Bowl]], a now-defunct post-season game for third place, in 1964 against the Green Bay Packers by a score of 24–17. The overall mediocrity of the Cardinals, combined with a then-[[Busch Memorial Stadium|21-year-old stadium]], caused game attendance to dwindle, and owner [[Bill Bidwill]] decided to move the team to Arizona.<ref name="k874">{{cite web |title=Longtime Cardinals owner William V.

Starting in {{Cardinals NFL season|1947}}, the team had a logo of a [[Northern cardinal|cardinal bird]] ([[pyrrhuloxia]]) perched on the laces of a football.

The Cardinals moved to Arizona in {{Cardinals NFL season|1988}}, and the [[flag of Arizona]] was added to the sleeves the following year. In {{Cardinals NFL season|1990}}, the team began wearing red pants with their white jerseys, as new coach [[Joe Bugel]] wanted to emulate his former employer, the [[Washington Redskins]], who at the time wore burgundy pants with their white jerseys (the Redskins later returned to their 1970s gold pants with all their jerseys).

In {{nfly|1994}}, the Cardinals participated in the NFL's 75th-anniversary throwback uniform program. The jerseys were similar to those of the 1920s Chicago Cardinals, with an interlocking "CC" logo and three stripes on each sleeve. The uniform numbers were moved to the right chest. The pants were khaki to simulate the color and material used in that era. The Cardinals also stripped the logos from their helmets for two games: at [[1994 Cleveland Browns season|Cleveland]] and home vs. [[1994 Pittsburgh Steelers season|Pittsburgh]].

[[File:Chicago cardinals.png|thumb|150px|Chicago Cardinals logo.]]

The Cardinal head on the helmet also appeared on the sleeve of the white jersey from 1982 to 1995. In 1996, the state flag of Arizona was moved higher on the sleeve after the Cardinal head was eliminated as sleeves on football jerseys became shorter, and black was removed as an accent color, instead replaced with a blue to match the predominant color of the state flag. In 2002, the Cardinals began to wear all-red and all-white combinations, and continued to do so through 2004, prior to the team's makeover.

In {{nfly|2005}}, the team unveiled its first major changes in a century. The cardinal-head logo was updated to look sleeker and meaner than its predecessor. Numerous fans had derisively called the previous version a "[[parakeet]]".<ref>{{cite web|title=Cards Brush Up Bird|url=http://www.azcardinals.com/news/news_details.html?iid=2588|publisher=NFL Enterprises, LLC|website=AZCardinals.com|date=January 27, 2005|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051122212338/http://www.azcardinals.com/news/news_details.html?iid=2588|archive-date=November 22, 2005 |access-date=August 26, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref> Black again became an accent color after an eight-year absence, while trim lines were added to the outside shoulders, sleeves, and sides of the jerseys and pants.

Hoping to break a six-game losing streak, the Cardinals wore the red pants for the first time on October 29, 2006, in a game at [[Lambeau Field]] against the Green Bay Packers. The Packers won 31–14, and the Cards headed into their bye week with a 1–7 mark. Following the bye week, the Cardinals came out in an all-red combination at home against the Dallas Cowboys and lost, 27–10. Arizona did not wear the red pants for the remainder of the season and won four of their last seven games. However, the following season, in {{Cardinals NFL season|2007}}, the Cardinals again wore their red pants for their final 3 home games. They wore red pants with white jerseys in games on the road at the Cincinnati Bengals and Seattle Seahawks. They paired red pants with red jerseys, the all-red combination, for home games against the Detroit Lions, San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns, and St. Louis Rams. The red pants were not worn at all in {{Cardinals NFL season|2008}}, but they were used in home games against Seattle, Minnesota, and St. Louis in {{Cardinals NFL season|2009}}. The red pants were paired with the white road jersey for the first time in three years during a 2010 game at Carolina, but the white jersey/red pants combination was not used again until 2018, when they broke out the combination against the [[Kansas City Chiefs]].<ref name="x683">{{cite web | last=Root | first=Jess | title=Cardinals to bust out uniform combo not used since 2010 | website=Cards Wire|publisher=USA Today | date=2018-11-10 | url=https://cardswire.usatoday.com/2018/11/10/az-arizona-cardinals-uniform-week-10-jerseys/ | access-date=2024-08-19}}</ref>

The Cardinals' first home game in Arizona, in 1988, saw them play in red jerseys. Thereafter, for the next 18 years in Arizona, the Cardinals, like a few other NFL teams in warm climates, wore their white jerseys at home during the first half of the season—forcing opponents to suffer in their darker jerseys during Arizona autumns that frequently see temperatures over 100&nbsp;°F (38&nbsp;°C). However, this tradition did not continue when the Cardinals moved from Sun Devil Stadium to State Farm Stadium in 2006, as early-season games (and some home games late in the season) were played with the roof closed. With the temperature inside at a comfortable 70&nbsp;°F (21&nbsp;°C), the team opted to wear red jerseys at home full-time. The Cardinals wore white jerseys at home for the first time at State Farm Stadium on August 29, 2008, in a preseason game against the [[Denver Broncos]].

The Cardinals wore white at home for the first time in a regular-season game at State Farm Stadium against the [[Houston Texans]] on October 11, {{nfly|2009}}. In October 2009, the NFL recognized [[Breast Cancer Awareness Month]], and players wore pink-accented items, including gloves, wristbands, and shoes.

==Rivalries==
===Divisional===
==== Los Angeles Rams ====
{{Main|Cardinals–Rams rivalry}}

Both the oldest and most intense divisional rivalry for the Cardinals, the matchup saw both teams first meet during the [[1937 NFL season]], while the Rams played in Cleveland, and the Cardinals were still originally located in Chicago. Both teams had played in St. Louis for a brief period in their histories. Their Rivalry with the [[Los Angeles Rams]] has resurged in recent years as both teams found playoff success, despite the Cardinals' best efforts; the Rams have been 9–1 since hiring head coach [[Sean McVay]] in 2017. The Week 17 matchup of the 2020 season saw both teams playing for a playoff berth; despite the injury to Rams quarterback [[Jared Goff]], the Cardinals lost 18–7 and were eliminated from the postseason. The Cardinals' streak ended against the Rams the following season. They took the lead in the NFC over the Rams and started the season 7–0. In the following matchup, the Rams won on Monday Night Football; the Cardinals lost 6 of 10 games after their 7–0 start. The Cardinals would clinch a wild card berth after a week 17 win over the [[Dallas Cowboys]]. They played the Rams in Los Angeles and lost 34–11 as Kyler Murray threw 2 interceptions with one returned for a touchdown.<ref name="k468">{{cite web |title=Stafford propels Rams past Cardinals 34-11 in playoff rout |url=https://apnews.com/article/nfl-sports-los-angeles-tampa-bay-buccaneers-arizona-0fd1e5a6a4bf169e32b62796f22c023a |website=[[AP News]] |date=2022-01-18 |last1=Beacham |first1=Greg |access-date=2024-08-05}}</ref> The Rams lead the series 50–40–2 while leading the postseason series 2–0.<ref>{{Cite web |title=All Matchups, Chicago/St. Louis/Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals vs. Cleveland/St. Louis/LA Rams |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi?tm1=crd&tm2=ram&yr=all |access-date=2024-07-31 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>

==== Seattle Seahawks ====
{{Main|Cardinals–Seahawks rivalry}}

One of the newer rivalries in the NFL, the Cardinals and [[Seattle Seahawks]] became divisional rivals after both were moved to the [[NFC West]] as a result of the league's realignment in 2002.<ref name="u522">{{cite web | last=Cox | first=Seth | title=Arizona Cardinals' rivalry with Seattle Seahawks closer than you would think | website=Revenge of the Birds | date=2022-10-07 | url=https://www.revengeofthebirds.com/2022/10/7/23391378/az-arizona-cardinals-rivalry-with-seattle-seahawks-closer-than-you-would-think | access-date=2024-08-19}}</ref> This rivalry has become one of the NFL's more bitter in recent years, as the mid-to-late 2010s often saw the Seahawks and Cardinals squaring off for NFC West supremacy. The rivalry featured such clashes between the likes of [[Carson Palmer]] or [[Kyler Murray]] for the Cardinals against [[Pete Carroll]] and [[Russell Wilson]] for the Seahawks during the era. Seattle leads the series 25–22–1, and the two teams have yet to meet in the playoffs.<ref>{{Cite web |title=All Matchups, Chicago/St. Louis/Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals vs. Seattle Seahawks |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi?tm1=crd&tm2=sea&yr=all |access-date=2024-07-31 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>

==== San Francisco 49ers ====
{{Main|49ers–Cardinals rivalry}} Though they first met in 1951 and would meet occasionally until 2000, this would not become a full-fledged rivalry until both teams were placed in the NFC West division in 2002.<ref name="u551">{{cite web | title=When the NFL added two divisions -- and weakened the AFC West | website=NBC Sports | date=2014-05-22 | url=https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/when-the-nfl-added-two-divisions-and-weakened-the-afc-west | access-date=2024-08-19}}</ref> While a close rivalry, it is often lopsided on both ends. After the 49ers won nine of ten meetings between 2009 and 2013, the Cardinals won eight straight meetings between 2014 and 2018. The [[San Francisco 49ers|49ers]] lead the series 34–29.<ref>{{Cite web |title=All Matchups, Chicago/St. Louis/Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals vs. San Francisco 49ers |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi?tm1=crd&tm2=sfo&yr=all |access-date=2024-07-31 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>
