NFL Week 4 Power Rankings, where do the Miami Dolphins stand after close loss?

The Patriots struggles are really starting to catch up to them and it’s very obvious. Mac Jones is having a harder time adjusting to the NFL than he thought he would. Jones threw 3 interceptions and was sacked twice in the loss to the Saints. The defense was pretty good, allowing just 3 touchdowns to the Saints offense. The Patriots have major glaring issues and they get a very hard task this week as they welcome Tom Brady back to New England.

As the weeks go on, the more the Steelers week one win over the Bills looks more like a fluke. Sure, the defense may be without some starters but giving up 3 touchdowns to Joe Burrow who has been struggling is pretty disappointing. The real struggle is from the offense. Ben Roethlisberger just looks like he doesn’t have it anymore, the offensive line sucks, and that means rookie Najee Harris can not run at all. The Steelers are in big trouble this season.

Washington’s defense is arguably one of the most disappointing stories of the season so far. Sure, they were facing Josh Allen and the explosive Bills receivers but this defense was supposed to be dominant. They haven’t been able to put pressure at all on quarterbacks, and that just adds extra pressure on their secondary. The offense has also struggled to get going but it is not time to worry yet. If Washington can get their defense to get back on track, they can still save their season.

The Falcons finally got things better on offense after an extremely disappointing start to the season. Matt Ryan threw for 243 yards and 2 touchdowns, his cleanest game yet. The defense also did much better, getting 3 sacks on Daniel Jones and allowing just 14 points. Look for the Falcons to count on Matt Ryan to continue to improve and to get Kyle Pitts involved more.

The Colts are off to the worst start ever imagined. The injuries to Carson Wentz and the offensive line are clearly catching up to them. Jonathan Taylor can’t get going behind that offensive line, and the defense hasn’t been that great either. The Colts schedule doesn’t get easier as they face the Dolphins and Ravens. This can turn out to being a long season for Colts fans,

Rookie Justin Fields could not have been in a worse situation to make his first NFL start. It was an absolute disaster going up against Myles Garrett and that elite Browns defensive line. FIelds was shut down all day long just like the rest of the Bears offense. The defense didn’t do as bad but they still gave up a ton of rushing yards and could not come up with an answer for Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. Look for the Bears to be on upset watch this week against the Lions.

If it wasn’t for a missed call by the refs, the Lions would have got the upset win over the Ravens. It was an awesome performance to watch from the Lions. They put up a fight all day long, and made life hard on the Ravens. Their offense never truly got going and the Lions defense was holding up strong. But Justin Tucker nailed a 66 yard field goal for the win to crush the Lions hearts. Their search for win one continues but they have a good shot against the Bears this week.

The Eagles game plan against the Cowboys was completely awful. They leaned on the arm of Jalen Hurts way too much and they completely abandoned the run game the whole night. That right there gave the Cowboys an immediate win. The Eagles are a mess and they have a lot of cleaning up to do.

The Giants offense is just so inconsistent. One game Daniel Jones looks amazing, and the next game he’s back to normal and looks like he has many issues still. The Giants could not get anything going offensively, coming up with 14 points. What’s worse is that the Giants allowed just 17 points to the Falcons. The Giants have issues they need to clean up if they want to get their first win.

The Texans are already a bad football team. They look even worse behind Davis Mills who made his first start. They are just an absolute mess. They have a very inconsistent run game, and the passing game can’t get going. While the defense is just as bad, they continue to give up a ton of yards. The one bright spot for the Texans right now is receiver Brandin Cooks.

The Jaguars awful start continues. Trevor Lawrence is struggling way more than anyone expected. He cannot stop turning the ball over whatsoever. The positive for the offense is that they finally got James Robinson going this week but Urban Meyers needs to realize if he wants to give this offense a chance to succeed. The defense was not horrible though, they slowed down Kyler Murray but just could not do enough. The Jaguars have a ways to go.

The Jets have not got better at all in this rebuild. Not at all. The Jets continue to show how awful of a franchise they are. Zach Wilson looks like one of the worst rookies we have seen in awhile, the offensive line sucks, the run game is inconsistent, and the receivers aren’t helping either. The Jets just look lost out there and are by far the worst team in the NFL.
