 What can be said about this Superbowl that can't be said about any other Superbowl?   Well for starters The Arizona Cardinals had never been there. This can also be said, if the Cardinals ever get another chance to be there hopefully they will play a little better and have a lot less penalties.

     It was anyone's game going into this Superbowl. But it  destine to be a sixth win for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Arizona had impressed everyone with their win after win in the post season. Seemed as though everyone never thought they would even make it through the playoffs little less making it to the Superbowl.

     Okay now to the Superbowl. It seemed pretty even through the first half, well until James Harrison's 100 yard interception return with no time left on the clock in the first half gave the Steelers a huge momentum swing going into halftime. Thus this was the beginning of the end for the Cardinals. 
    The second half came and the third quarter seemed kinda drab. Finally in the fourth quarter, Kurt Warner stepped up and showed everyone why he and the Cardinals were playing in the Superbowl. Warner hit All-Pro receiver Larry Fitzgerald in stride for a 64-yard touchdown. Fitzgerald sped down the middle of the field, watching himself outrun the Steelers on the huge video screen. Kurt Warner and the Cardinals staged a remarkable rally to go in front 23-20 with 2:37 remaining. But it was not to be because Warner fumbled in the final seconds, the Cardinals' dream of winning their first NFL crown since 1947 were gone. The victory that didn't happen because the Steelers are as resilient as they come.With the Fumble and five seconds to play Pittsburgh just kneeled and ran the clock out.  
       In a contest that was decided by a razor-thin margin, the Cardinals cost themselves a chance for their first Super Bowl title with 11 penalties for 106 yards. Even though Kurt Warner out performed Ben Roethlisberger, it wasn't in the cards for him nor the Cardinals to have a Superbowl victory. The Cardinals haven't had a Superbowl victory in 62 years.
