National Football Conference · NFC West
Founded in 1898 in Chicago, Illinois, the Arizona Cardinals are the oldest continuously operating professional football franchise in the country. The team now plays its home games at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, with club headquarters in Tempe. Owner Michael Bidwill oversees operations, with Monti Ossenfort serving as general manager and Mike LaFleur as head coach. The Cardinals have experienced notable peaks and valleys across the seasons tracked here. A 13–3 campaign in 2015 and an 11–6 playoff appearance in 2021 stand as high points, while stretches like back-to-back 4–13 finishes in 2022 and 2023 reflect the franchise's ongoing search for consistency. The current roster features tight end Trey McBride, wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., running back James Conner, and safety Budda Baker among its notable names.
