Facing poor attendance and an aging stadium (and unwillingness on the city's part to build another multi-purpose stadium, by then the concept was falling out of favor), the team relocated to Phoenix in 1988, being called the Phoenix Cardinals until taking its current name in 1994. However, though the team has had somewhat better success than in Chicago or St. Louis, it has not translated into many playoff victories. The team has made one Super Bowl appearance against the [[Pittsburgh Steelers]] in [[Super Bowl XLIII]] on February 1, 2009, losing 23 to 27. | Facing poor attendance and an aging stadium (and unwillingness on the city's part to build another multi-purpose stadium, by then the concept was falling out of favor), the team relocated to Phoenix in 1988, being called the Phoenix Cardinals until taking its current name in 1994.
