This has been a hugely unpredictable season.
Few expected the Carolina Panthers to be the last unbeaten team, and even fewer expected them to be unbeaten into the final quarter of the regular season. Peyton Manning was supposed to drop off as age continued to take its toll, but he wasn't supposed to become a hindrance on a team that won seven of its first nine games before benching him. While most were excited about Jameis Winston's prospects to be successful in the NFL from the start of his rookie season, few expected him to produce so much so quickly.
