1) Arizona Cardinals

There’s no denying that the Arizona Cardinals have an extremely high-powered offense. Arizona had the most offensive yards of any team in the NFL in 2015 and there’s a good chance that it happens again.

Carson Palmer is one of the most underrated quarterbacks in the NFL, even at the age of 36 and has shown no signs of slowing down after reviving his career with the Cardinals. Arizona had two 1000-yard receivers in Larry Fitzgerald and John Brown and had a close third in Michael Floyd. In today’s league we talk about the top one two punches but if we talk about the best one two three punches, Arizona takes the cake.

Arizona also possesses a solid running game. Chris Johnson ran like it was 2008 a season ago and David Johnson added solid numbers as well. As a team the Cardinals averaged 119 yards rushing per game which was good enough for sixth-best in the NFC.

Overall, this is one high-powered offense that can beat you in every single way imaginable.
