As voice of the Green Bay Packers Wayne Larrivee puts it, the Arizona Cardinals have a Super glow about them.

Though they may not have the NFL's best record, he has put them as No. 1 in his weekly NFL power poll - and for very good reason: They may be the NFL's most balanced team.

The Cardinals, who have won eight straight games, have the NFL's best offense, third-best passing offense and 6th-best running game.

They have the sport's 7th-best defense and fourth-best rushing defense, plus the second-best defense in football whe it comes to causing turnovers.

Quarterback Carson Palmer is an MVP candidate with a stable of receivers which could rival the 2010-11 Packers for explosiveness.

The defense, even without Tyrann Mathieu, can still cause enemy offenses problems.
