In their last pre-Super Bowl XLIII practice, the Arizona Cardinals were impressive, according to pool reporter John Czarnecki, who said that Kurt Warner misfired on just three passes in more than two hours of work.

‘Kurt looked like he’s been looking,’ said Coach Ken Whisenhunt, whose team used the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ outdoor training facility. ‘He was consistent and made some good throws. He looked sharp.’

One of the highlights of the session was when kicker Neil Rackers bounced three consecutive 20-yard field goals off the second-floor window of the Bucs’ facility -- booming kicks.

‘It seemed to fire up a lot of the guys,’ Whisenhunt said. ‘I think some of them wanted to see’ a window shatter.’
