Which team exceeded your expectations the most in the NFL this year?

I say the Arizona Cardinals.
offense has been better with Michael Floyd stepping up and providing a compliment to Larry Fitzgerald.
they hit a homerun on defense signing John Abraham. Also have to mention Karlos Dansby, dude shed some weight and really surprised in pass coverage this year.

The Chiefs had the worst record in the league last year and are in the playoffs....

Is there really any answer besides the chiefs? They had the worst record in the league last year...

I will go with the panthers just because they can potentially get the 2 seed, although I was way more impressed with them a few weeks ago

Cardinals play in a tougher division.
the Chiefs have beaten up on bad teams.
think outside the box, man.

KC
Arizona
New Orleans
That's the order I'd go
KC went from being terrible to a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
Arizona has one of the best run defenses I've seen.

Agreed, it will be a shame if we don't make the playoffs

Panthers have definitely taken a big step forward this season.

The Cardinals also started as a better team. You asked for the most IMPROVED. You didnt ask which has had a more impressive season. The Cardinals won 2 more games than the Chiefs last year in what you claim is a better division, and the Chiefs division was even worse last year so they started well below the Cardinals.
Now the Chiefs have a better record and are in the playoffs while the Cardinals need the Falcons to beat the 49ers. How could you objectively look and say the Cardinals have improved more?

I thought my Jags were a 2 win team this year. Four wins is oddly enough a pleasant surprise. They have really played hard this year and the future actually looks bright if Caldwell makes the right picks in the draft,which I think he will. Hop on the bandwagon while there is still some room pussies.

I don't always look at records.
I mean, I think a lot of people would have predicted the Chiefs to be much improved. That team is loaded with talent especially on defense. When Andy Reid was hired, the expectations could only be higher right?
enter Arizona.
pretty good on defense.
terrible on offense, O-line sucked arse last year.
hired Bruce Arians to coach in a division with Jim Harbaugh, Pete Carroll, and Jeff Fisher.
the Cardinals top draft pick was even lost for the season with an injury. He would have made a difference on that O-line.

So now the question has been ammended to "Who has unexpectedly improved the most?"
I expected the Cardinals to be better with an actual QB, a WR core that's not just Fitz by himself and the honey badger on a defense that's young and improving.

he's been subpar at best.
The Chiefs are paper champions in a weaker conference.
just because Arizona might not even make the playoffs doesn't discredit what they've done.
I guess the parity in the league has made it better/worse in people's eyes.
What a shocker!!!

So the consensus so far is the Chiefs.
Cool.
Glad this thing got settled without some stat boy going and digging up some premium statistics off of a pay website.
Well done fellas.
I still say it is the Cardinals.
