We know what the Arizona Cardinals bring to the table.  They have a great base of offensive talent to spread the ball around to.  When it comes to the NFC West, they aren’t the only ones.

Every team within the division can boast good or even great players.  The Seattle Seahawks prolific offense has been greatly documented.  The Los Angeles Rams have a young but up and coming team of stars.  The San Francisco 49ers can’t be left out of the mix either.  Even though they are seeing a downward trend they still have players that can mix it up.

The Cardinals won the NFC West last season and a big part of that was because of their offense. The Seahawks stayed right with them and although both teams saw their defenses be a big part of their success in 2015, when they played each other, it was the offenses that shined.

Going into 2016 there hasn’t been much change as far Cardinals are concerned.  The Seahawks, although they lose running back Marshawn Lynch will still be a team to watch out for.  Here are the four teams and how they rank when it comes to their top three skill players.
