Game summaries
Week 1: vs. Dallas Cowboys
Week 3: at Washington Redskins
Week 8: vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox Days before the game Cardinals owner Bill Bidwill announced that the team would be moving to another city.[1][2] The announcement increased fan apathy, resulting in an official game attendance of only 22,449, the Cardinals' lowest in four years.
Entering the fourth quarter, the Cardinals were down 28–3 to the Buccaneers. St. Louis would score 28 unanswered points in the final quarter to win 31–28. Tampa kicker Donald Igwebuike attempted a 53-yard field goal to tie the game as time expired but the ball bounced off the crossbar. The Cardinals' 25-point fourth quarter comeback is the largest in NFL history.[3]
Week 13: vs. New York Giants
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox This would be the Cardinals' final home game in St. Louis as the franchise would relocate to the Phoenix metro area for the 1988 season. This would be the last NFL game played in St. Louis until September 10, 1995 when the Rams, who had relocated to St. Louis from Los Angeles following the 1994 season, hosted the New Orleans Saints. However, the Rams would move back to Los Angeles prior to the 2016 season.
Week 14: vs. Washington Redskins
Week 15: at Dallas Cowboys
Шаблон:Americanfootballbox Entering the final week of the season, the Cardinals needed a win over the Cowboys to secure the NFC's final wild card spot. The Cardinals wound up losing the regular season finale, knocking them out of playoff contention. This would be the final game for the St. Louis Cardinals NFL team. On March 15, 1988, NFL owners approved the Cardinals' move from St. Louis to Tempe, Arizona.[4] Starting with the following season, the Cardinals played as the Phoenix Cardinals before changing the franchise's geographic name to the Arizona Cardinals prior to the 1994 season.[5]
