Looking at just their record, the Cardinals had a terrible season. However, they were a pesky, competitive team for several games despite being sorely outgunned talent wise.

The duo of Russell Wilson and Sean Payton wasn't enough to bring Denver out of mediocrity and because of that, the organization is looking at making a massive move this offseason -- cutting Russell Wilson.
