NFL Week 4 Power Rankings: Evaluating Every Team After Week 3
Sportsnaut Sportsnaut

Week 3 of the 2025 NFL season kicked off with a Thursday Night Football clash that saw the Buffalo Bills escape with a victory over the Miami Dolphins that was much closer than expected. It perfectly set the tone for Sunday’s action, where some of the worst and best NFL teams right now delivered surprising early-season performances.

Let’s dive into our NFL Week 4 power rankings following Monday Night Football, evaluating how all 28 teams performed this weekend. We’

  1. Miami Dolphins (32)

The Miami Dolphins have a lot of problems, and when that’s the case, blame should first fall on the shoulders of the general manager. Once blame is assigned to Chris Grier, next on the list should be Tua Tagovailoa. One of the highest-paid NFL players now ranks 27th in Adjusted EPA per Play (-0.063), and the restraints he’s put on this Dolphins’ offense are apparent. Unfortunately for Miami, it’s stuck with him. That leaves Grier and Mike McDaniel as the ones to pay the price for what this team has become.

  1. New Orleans Saints (29)

At least the New Orleans Saints were put out of their misery early on Sunday. It was over in the first quarter when Seattle took a 21-0 lead at home. That allowed the crowd to get wild and Mike Macdonald could give his defense the green light to match the stadium’s energy. As for the Saints, after a 0-3 start, it’s fair to wonder when we might hear NFL trade rumors about Alvin Kamara and Cameron Jordan.

  1. Tennessee Titans (30)

It’s really only about Tennessee Titans rookies Cam Ward and Elic Ayomanor at this point. There’s little else redeeming about this offense, with Calvin Ridley still failing to deliver on his contract and the offensive line struggling to protect the new face of the franchise. On the bright side for Tennessee, Ward continues to show franchise-caliber tools, and the 0-2 record means the front office can use premium draft capital to start building a better roster around him in the years to come.

  1. New York Giants (26)

The New York Giants are now 11-33-1 since Week 11 of the 2022 NFL season. John Mara made it clear before this fall that he had high expectations for Brian Daboll and Co. As misplaced as those expectations were, he had them. It’s not going to get any better from here for New York, either. At this point, with a high likelihood of this being a one-win team heading into the Week 14 bye, there’s no time like the present to fire Daboll.
