The 1984 St. Louis Cardinals season was the team's 65th year with the National Football League and the 25th season in St. Louis. Despite finishing with the same 9–7 record as their division rivals Dallas and New York, the Giants made the playoffs based upon the best head-to-head record among the three teams.[note 1]

The Cardinals’ 6,345 offensive yards in 1984 was third in the NFL, and the most in team history.[1] Their 423 points were fourth-best in the league.[2]

This was the Cardinals' last winning season in St. Louis. The franchise moved to Arizona in 1988, and did not enjoy a winning season there until 1998.
