1. Arizona Cardinals

Adjusted NEP/P: 0.190 (1st)
Adjusted Passing NEP/P: 0.315 (1st)
Adjusted Rushing NEP/P: 0.021 (8th)

How impressive has the Arizona Cardinals offense been in 2015? Well, first of all, the difference between Arizona and number two-ranked New Orleans in terms of Adjusted NEP per play is the same as that between New Orleans and ninth-ranked Washington.

With the league's second most efficient quarterback by Passing NEP per drop back, Carson Palmer, at the helm, the Cardinals amassed 4,616 passing yards despite injuries to John Brown and Michael Floyd throughout the season.

And in the ground game, despite losing preseason starter Andre Ellington to injury at the beginning of the year and then lead tailback Chris Johnson to a regular season-ending injury in Week 12, rookie David Johnson jumped right in to help lead the Cardinals eighth-ranked rushing offense according to our advanced Rushing NEP metrics.

All together, the Cardinals offense was not only the most efficient by far on a per play basis, but their 489 points scored was second behind only Carolina (500) this season.
