Six best NFL offensive power trios for 2016

Rob Gronkowski Tom Brady

4. Carson Palmer, Larry Fitzgerald, David Johnson, Arizona Cardinals

Palmer and Fitzgerald experienced a career revival unlike any other in 2015.

First of all, Palmer returned after a second ACL surgery at the age of 36 and posted career highs in yards (4,671) and touchdowns (35). He also kept his interceptions at bay with just 11.

Meanwhile, Fitzgerald was a stud. He achieved a career-high 109 catches for 1,215 yards and nine touchdowns. Noteworthy also was Fitzgerald’s ridiculous 75 percent catch rate last season. Down the stretch, his production declined a bit. Although, we must remember Fitzgerald’s 75-yard catch and run, 176-total yard playoff game-winning performance against Green Bay this past January.

Palmer and Fitz will team up with the youthful David Johnson as he begins his first whole season as a starter. The 713 combined yards and six total touchdowns during the last six weeks of his rookie season should be an indicator of his talent.

Overall, the Cardinals’ offense will be a force, and a postseason visit for this exciting trio should be on the agenda.
