TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts,  Baltimore Ravens
The Colts did an amazing job going from 2 wins in 2011 to 11 in 2012, the 2nd biggest turnaround in NFL history.

They closed out the season with an emotional home win over division rival Houston. However, the Colts didn’t really play as well as their 11-5 record would have suggested.
