NFL power rankings entering Week 4: How far did Bucs, Chiefs and Bills fall?
NFL Power Rankings: Week 4
Doug Pederson’s club was impressive last week at home against the rival Colts. Now the Jaguars headed west to take on the Chargers. The franchise was looking to end an 18-game road losing streak that dated back to 2019.
And the club did that in resounding fashion as Trevor Lawrence threw for 262 yards and three touchdowns. Pederson’s team played turnover-free football. The Jaguars have won two straight games by a combined 62-10 score.
Off a heartbreaking fourth-quarter collapse against the Dolphins, the Ravens made the trip north to Foxborough. Lamar Jackson had another huge outing, running for 107 yards and one TD plus throwing for 218 yards and four scores (1 interception) – two of those touchdown strikes to tight end Mark Andrews.
The Baltimore defense allowed 447 total yards but the Ravens also came up with four takeaways – including three interceptions.
The Buccaneers’ defense had been stellar during the team’s 2-0 start. Now Todd Bowles’ club hosted the Packers in a clash of 2021 division champions. And Tampa defenders rebounded from a shaky first half to blank Aaron Rodgers and company after intermission.
The Bucs were limited to 34 yards on the ground while Tom Brady was sacked three times. Bowles’ team scored a TD with 14 seconds left but failed on the game-tying two-point attempt.
