Great comeback. My dad took me to this one. We left when we were down 23-10. Thought it was over. We listened to the game on our radios on the way back to the car on the other side of the Salt River bed. Oh boy, my dad was pissed we left....taught me a lesson at 15 years old that a game is never over till its over.
I was at that game! We were at the very top row on the east side on the 50 yard line. (Our old Wranglers seats). If you look carefully after the Cards scored the winning TD, you can see the white drink cups flying around. Everyone threw their cups up in the air in celebration. Total pandemonium! The night before, ASU came back to defeat Oregon State in similar fashion. Same celebration! Good times. Thank you for sharing!
At the game and this game was when i started bleeding Cardinal red. No other sporting event that i had attended would match that level of excitement and noise. Thank you for posting this.
Heard this on the radio, while in a traffic jam leaving Phoenix International raceway., after Nascars first race in Phoenix. Alan Kulwicky won his first race That day and did his polish victory lap.
Lomax was a really good QB back in the day...having to play in the brutal NFC East vs LT's Giants, Darrell Green's Redskins and Reggie White's Eagles cost him a much better career
I've been following the Cardinals since they came to town. Back then Phoenix PD officers would give away special player cards if you asked them, I was 8 or 9 back then & still have the cards to this day. It hasn't been easy being a fan, but nice to see this video of a classic W.
This is the last road loss by the 49ers (last loss in the decade of the '80s) until Week 1 of the '91 season when they lost to the defending SB champs, Giants (rematch of the NFC title game from the previous season). Now I see why after choking away a 23-0 lead on the road. Good on them. lol
Im 34 yrs old and this was my most memorable Cardinals game ever. Im from STL but was living in Cincinnati at the time, think i was in 5th grade and the only cards fan in my class lol. Anyway my friends were 49ers fans and would give me shit all the time about being a Cards fan. This game i just knew something special was about to happen and it did....GO CARDS! LOL Neil Lomax still looks old in this game gotta love him thou!
@@CooltownCardinal That inaugural year they were 7-4 after they beat the Giants at home & were tied w/ them in 1st place (I know cause I went to that game w/ the family, 1st Cards game I ever saw live). That WAS a lot of wins for the team at the time. Unfortunately they lost their last 5 after Lomax got hurt in that same Giants game.
When Cards left and went to Arizona I knew they would be loved !!! I hope they get back to winning football with kyler Murray and t- sizzle. Good luck red birds in 2019.
Big Cowboys fan who admired and feared Roy Jet Stream Green. I also own an '88 game worn scarlet red Green jersey. Perhaps from this game? Great finish I recall.
Because of this loss, Walsh decided to go with Joe Montana for the rest of the season. It was a wise move as the 49ers went on to win the Super Bowl. So this loss was a blessing in disguise.
Though it was not immediately evident. The following week, things got even worse for the 49ers with Montana back at QB with a 9-3 home loss to the Raiders that Bill Walsh would later call the blackest moment of his 10-year career as a head coach. That loss dropped them to 6-5, but a week later, John Taylor's 95-YD punt return against the Redskins in a must-win MNF game for both teams saved the 49ers season, and quite possibly the 49er dynasty. The 49ers would not lose another meaningful game that season (which included a 48-10 blowout of the Chargers in the only NFL game I ever attended) and would win their third Super Bowl of the decade.
@@bhmch39 With the hype of the move the Cardinals had some of the most expensive tickets in the league. I paid $800, I think it was for two sets of season tickets which averaged out to $40 a ticket.
The ironic thing is that this was the 2nd straight 49er road loss after winning their prior 11, then they WON next 18.This game and the Bears MNF loss- both 1 point games.the 49ers were basically 2 points from winning 31 consecutive road games!
C. K. Yes, but to be fair it works the other way too. They beat the Jets 23-10 in 89, so if the Jets managed two more touchdowns in that game- they would have had to be defensive because the Jets couldn't score- San Francisco would have lost. So these margins are razor thin.
Man, what could've been. Look at the packed SDS with all those cheering fans. If Lomax never injured his hip, the Cards might have avoided the next 10 years of mediocrity.
+ECWnWWF Actually, the NFC West was the 49ers, Rams, Falcons, and Saints. The Cardinals were still in the NFC East and the Seahawks were in the AFC West. Realignment came in 2002.
I remember watching this game and being absolutely furious. It wasn't very often that a Bill Walsh team would cough up big leads like this, but this was one of them. For the 49ers, the frusteration would continue the following week. They lost 9-3 at home to the Raiders and it looked like the season was pretty much over. Despite dropping to 6-5, they would win 4 out of thier last 5 games {the one loss was a meaningless game at home to the Rams the final week of the year} to win the NFC West {Ironically, both the Saints and Rams also finished 10-6 that year as well} . They would of course go on to beat the Bengals in the Super Bowl in a dramatic finish 20-16 so that has taken at least some of pain of the brutal loss.
Can you imagine if the Cardinals had moved to the NFC West in 1988 instead of 2002? Their playoff drought might not have lasted 16 years. They could have beaten Atlanta, New Orleans, and the LA Rams. Why even the Niners would have had trouble with the Cards back then. AZ had the defense to stop SF's offense. I believe the Cards also beat the Niners in '92. Not to mention travel would have been much easier back then, too. Those east coast road trips hurt AZ every year. Having only 1 east coast road trip (ATL) and 2 west coast road trips (SF & LA/ANA) would have been much easier travel wise and that would have made a difference.
Totally agree with you and in '92 when the Cardinals upset the Niners that was the game if I recall that Steve Young missed that game when he came down with the flu and Steve Bono started in place but the Cardinals had a good defense and their coordinator was the late Fritz Shurmur who later was the Packers DC under Mike Holmgren in Green Bay when the Packers won it all in '96 and as for the Cardinals they were not as bad back then than people think back in the late 80's through the early-mid 90's but they resided in the tough smash-mouth NFC East teams combined to win 7 out of 10 Super Bowls between 1986-95. The GIANTS and Redskins combined to win four titles in six years from 1986-91 and the Cowboys of course won three titles in four years from 1992-93 and since moving to the Southwest in the first 19 years in the dessart between 1988-2006 the Cardinals had six or seven different head coaches and made the playoffs just once and they had some good players but the Bidwill family did not give out long term contracts.
POWERSAW1980 Should've at least moved in 95. Carolina should've been in the NFC East when they joined the league and the Cards should've moved to the NFC West.
+Brian Davis (Professor B) Absolutely. And of course, those plane rides to and from the East Coast to New York, Philadelphia, and Washington didn't help either. In the West, Atlanta would have been the only tough road trip distance wise. San Francisco and Anaheim would have been easy flights. New Orleans would have been the same as going to Dallas maybe a little longer.
Unless you are a Cards Fan you will never understand what winning a game feels like seriously cause when we did when a game back then it was like winning the Super Bowl, dramatic, crazy and insane. Til this day STL/Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals football will always be the most exciting nail biting team to watch, they don't call them Cardiac Cards for nothing!
Wait, weren't they still the St. Louis Cardinals back then? I remember this is one of the first games I ever watched and being a Niners fan, pretty darn dissapointed. At least the Super Bowl win made up for it :)
That was their first year in Arizona but using the name Phoenix, even though they played in nearby Tempe. In this game, however, when the Cardinals took a time out, the official stated "Time Out - St. Louis". After a chorus of boos, he turned the mike and corrected himself.
Roy Green was a great wide receiver. You just knew the ball was going to him, in that situation. The Cowboys faced him twice per year, and I developed an admiration for his skills.
They lost to Chicago 10-9 on the road right before this which snapped an 11 game road winning streak which started in 1987. If you combine both streaks they were 30-2 on the road from 87-90 with both losses back to back by 1 pt. Im also counting the win over chicago in 1988 nfc championship game.

Once the Cardinals moved from St Louis Missouri to Phoenix Arizona after the 1987 NFL season the Atlanta Falcons should've been moved to the NFC Eastern division while the Arizona move to the NFC Western division they'd make sure the Atlanta Falcons still play the New Orleans Saints each year
One of my favorite moments, Dad had bought nose bleed seats for my first NFL game, a bunch of people left so my Dad, my uncle and I decided since these so called fans wanted to give up and leave their good seats we can take care of them so I got to watch the game in the first section it was awesome we got so loud sounded like stadium was full what a special game that was....

This one and the 1992 game were my favorite upsets of the Fortywhiners. And both years in the early 2000's when the D-backs were NL West Champs, the Giants finished 2nd. F-ck SF :)
Niners were 6-5 at one time.. The Niners gave away the last game to the rams I think, which pissed of Phil Simms, cause if the Niners would have won their last game, or close to last, The Gians would have been in the playoffs.
Yeah they would have because the Rams would have only been 9-7. That year there was a 2 way tie for the NFC East and a 3 way tie for the NFC West. All 5 teams were 10-6. Eagles had swept the Giants so they won the East. The 49ers were 3-1 vs. Saints and Rams so they won the West. The Rams had the better conference record so they got the last wild card. Giants and Saints both 10-6 got nothing.
Is this the Niner team that went on to trash the Denver Broncos in the Superbowl 55-10 lol.... Niners played poorly in this game the Cardinal got lucky catching SF is a funk....
I wonder who ended up winning it all that season?? Oh yeah, My NINERS..... They finished the 88 season 10 Wins and 6 Losses..... And Won Super Bowl XXIII over the Bengals.... That was My NINERS 3rd Title, the following season They finished 14-2, and DESTROYED the Broncos 55-10.... How many titles do the Cardinals have?? Oh nevermind, they're 0-1 in the Super Bowl....
