Super Bowl XLIII was played on February 1, 2009, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida pitting the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Arizona Cardinals. The Steelers defeated the Cardinals by a score of 27-23.

The Cardinals entered the game seeking their first NFL title since 1947, the longest championship drought in the league. The club became an unexpected winner during the season and the playoffs with the aid of head coach Ken Whisenhunt, who was the Steelers' offensive coordinator in Super Bowl XL, and the re-emergence of quarterback Kurt Warner, who was the Super Bowl MVP in Super Bowl XXXIV with his former team, St. Louis Rams.
