NFL Week 4 Games players teams to watch

Posted by seestyle on July 25th, 2022

Two of the NFL's highest-profile and highest-paid quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Carson Wentz lead their teams into Thursday's prime-time start to Week 4 Mario Manningham Jersey : Eagles at Packers (8:20 p.m. ET, NBC/NFL Network).

Their situations in 2019? Not so similar.

The Eagles are 1-2 and in danger of stumbling further in a short week. The Packers are 3-0,with their defense leading the way.

They play fast. They play physical," Wentz told reporters this week ( ) in describing Green Bay's defense. "They do so many different things. It has a similar structure to what we saw last week with the Lions' defense, just a lot more multiple."

Meanwhile, despite being off to their first 3-0 start since 2015, the Packers have struggled offensively at times.

Maybe it's that Rodgers is Aaron Young Jersey in his first year in Matt LaFleurs offense, with a receiving corps that isnt nearly as talented as some hes had in the past.

Its time for us to do our part on offense. At some point, we cant expect our defense to shut everybody down, Rodgers told reporters this week ().

It all bears watching Thursday.

In the meantime, here's your NFL Week 4 countdown:

3 must-see Week 4 games

Patriots (3-0) at Bills (3-0), 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS) Things appear to have clicked for Bills QB Josh Allen, who has thrown for more than 200 yards in eight consecutive games, one shy of the longest streak in franchise history (set by Jim Kelly in 1992). But this Patriots defense has been extraordinary, not having allowed a touchdown this season. (Oh, and New England has won seven straight in Buffalo.)

Vikings (2-1) at Bears (2-1), 4:25 p.m. (CBS) While everyone's talking about the 3-0 Packers, the winner of this game maneuvers into a good quarter-pole position after Week 4. Mitchell Trubisky and the Bearsoffense came alive against the Redskins on Monday, butreally, what does that say? The Vikings, Jonathan Nance Jersey meanwhile, look very much like an old school NFC North team: second in the NFL in rushing yards per game (193.7) but also second-to-last in pa sing yards per game (164.7), the only NFL team with more rushing yardage than pa sing yardage in 2019.

Cowboys (3-0) at Saints (2-1) 8:20 p.m. (NBC) Teddy Bridgewater got a win against the Seahawks in his first start in place of Drew Brees. Dallas' defense, the only one that held Brees & Co. to le s than 200 yards in 2018, is a step up from Seattle. The Cowboys consider themselves Super Bowl contenders,and this Brandon Marshall Jersey will be a good gauge. They're 1-5 in their last six at the Superdome, where no NFC East team has won since the Redskins in 2012.

2 players to watch in NFL Week 4

Kyle Allen, Panthers QB Cam Newton reportedly will mi s up to eight weeks with a foot injury. Enter Allen, who won his first 2019 start in Week 3 against the Buccaneers and this week faces a tougher test in the Texans (1 p.m. ET, Fox). The deeper context: Is this an extended tryout as the Panthers decide whether to part with Newton?Since leading Carolina to Super Bowl 50, the former NFL MVP is 23-23 as a starter, has thrown 65 TD pa sesbut with a whopping 44 West Virginia Mountaineers Jersey Sale interceptions and 15 fumbles lost while dealing with frequent and recurring injuries. If Newton is on Carolina's roster in 2020, it's a .2 million salary cap hit. If he's gone, he costs million in dead cap money.

Mike Ford, Lions CB Both of the Lions' starting cornerbacks Darius Slay, Detroit's top cover man, and Rashaan Melvin, who has played well opposite Slay were listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the high-flying Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes (1 p.m., Fox). Ford is the next man up if either can't go, and don't think Mahomes, who has pa sed for at least 373 yards and three touchdowns in all three games for the Chiefs (3-0) this season, won't look for a weak spot to exploit.

1 bold Jordan Nwogu Jersey NFL Week 4 prediction

Bengals (0-3) at Steelers (0-3), 8:15 p.m. Monday (ESPN) The Bengals have lost eight straight to the Steelers, who started 0-4 in 2013, the only time in the past four decades they've been winle s through four games. The Bengals? They're 0-3 for the second time in three years. This Pittsburgh defense looks leaky 29th in yards allowed, 28th in points allowed. The Bengals are only a notch better in each category. This game is about the offenses. If the Bengals can rush the ball (big if), they'll win at Heinz Field.
