The NFL was reduced to a single team 4-0 in 2022. Meanwhile, there was more confusion when it came to this week’s NFL Power rankings?
Talk about a wild start to the season? The Philadelphia Eagles are the only unbeaten club in 2022. The Houston Texans are the only ones when it comes to unbeaten teams in the league.
But what may be even more impressive is the fact that only eight teams have achieved record wins after four weeks of playing. Three of these clubs are based in the NFC East. Finally, 15 of the 32 teams have scored 2-2 – including all four teams in NFC West.
He’s making some pretty interesting decisions when it comes to the latest NFL Power rankings.

A week ago, Panthers surprised the saints. Now the club was home for the third time in four weeks and welcomed the Cardinals to Charlotte.
Matt Rowley’s side opened the scoring as linebacker Freddy Lovaux reclaimed Kyler Murray’s 33-yard interception for a touchdown in the second quarter. But Carolina’s offense was essentially a no-show, totaling just 220 yards (40 rushes) while quarterback Baker Mayfield turned in the ball three times.

Texas responded with 17 straight points to close the gap to three points but failed again. Rookie Dameon Pierce ran for 131 yards and one TD. But Texans is the only team in the league that hasn’t achieved a win.
29
Pittsburgh Steelers 1-3
last week: Lamm, 24-20 vs New York

Down 10-6 at the break, Mike Tomlin picked the rookie quarterback Kenny Beckett In the second half the attack was certainly sparked by a pair of rapid drop. But he also had his share of mistakes.
Including a “Hail Mary” attempt in the last play of the game was picked up three times as the bounce didn’t go as well as the team was doing. The Steelers blew up a 10-point lead in the final quarter and is now 1-3 for the second year in a row.
