The Cardinals lost a gripping matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers in the NLF's Super Bowl XLIII on Feb. 1. Kurt Warner ('94) led the Cardinals as starting quarterback. Dedric Ward ('98), now a member of the Kansas City Chiefs coaching staff, served as offensive quality control coach for the Cardinals. Prior to the game, Warner received the 2008 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year trophy, recognizing his community service activities in addition to his excellence on the field.
