It sure is frightening for other defenses when\u00a0Derrick Henry\u00a0gets going, because it makes defending Jackson that much more difficult. Jackson took full advantage of the Henry effect on Sunday night, running for 54 yards and a touchdown via red-zone misdirection that he made look far too easy. He also completed 13 of 18 passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. Jackson\u00a0layered a beauty\u00a0between the second and third levels of coverage to\u00a0Isaiah Likely\u00a0and\u00a0fired a rocket\u00a0into a tight window to\u00a0Nelson Agholor\u00a0for a key gain. Jackson was rolling, so it’s no surprise Baltimore won easily. The Ravens are finding themselves, and if these kinds of performances become the norm, Jackson might win another MVP.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Sunday night\u00a0was a rough one for the Bills, putting Allen in an all-too-familiar place: trying to rescue Buffalo from defeat. Because the Bills quickly fell behind 21-3, the running game that had beautifully balanced the offense became a non-factor, forcing Allen to face obvious blitzes and attempt to play hero. He did once,\u00a0launching an incredible pass\u00a0less than a yard from the sideline to\u00a0Khalil Shakir\u00a0for a 52-yard gain, setting up Buffalo’s only TD. For most of the night, though, Allen was forced to hold off multiple defenders in order to get rid of passes. Week 4 provided the Bills with a large serving of humble pie, but the broader situation also played a heavy part in how this one unfolded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In between, though, Mahomes was harassed a lot and forced to use his legs to extend plays, pulling off the usual magic acts, including a pump fake on the run to freeze linebacker\u00a0Troy Dye\u00a0for a key gain. It wasn’t a pretty day overall, but Mahomes did a good job leaning on three top targets (Worthy, Kelce and tight end\u00a0Noah Gray) and leading the Chiefs back from a 10-0 deficit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The going hasn’t been as easy or smooth for Stroud and the Texans as we remembered it being in 2023, but it’s still early in the season for everyone. What’s more important is that Stroud was able to build a rapport with\u00a0Stefon Diggs\u00a0for a few big gains\u00a0on Sunday. He navigated the pocket — a skill that has become more crucial, considering the Texans’ inability to protect him as well they did last year — and channeled his inner clutch gene, leading a\u00a0game-winning drive\u00a0in the final minutes against Jacksonville. The Texans can be better than this, but it was a nice bounce-back performance for Stroud after a nightmarish\u00a0Week 3 outing\u00a0in Minneapolis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Smith is playing excellent football right now, folks. He’s been incredibly sharp in 2024, among the best in the NFL at keeping plays alive while under duress. He made one such play\u00a0Monday night\u00a0that should resonate, shaking off a would-be sack to escape right, reset and\u00a0fire a bullet into a closing window\u00a0to\u00a0Jaxon Smith-Njigba\u00a0for a gain of 11 on third-and-8 on a drive that ended in a touchdown.

Daniels was once again in complete command of the offense\u00a0in Arizona, rifling passes through the defense, picking up positive gains with his legs and dominating with his exciting blend of arm talent, composure and athletic ability.

Running game not working? Why not manufacture it with the short passing game?

After a\u00a0rough loss to Denver, Mayfield bounced back excellently, even rekindling a connection with college teammate\u00a0Sterling Shepard. The QB and the Bucs are rolling.<\/p>\n

Talk about a tumultuous game for the veteran. Stafford pulled off a number of excellent plays, ripping passes through tight windows to keep the Rams moving, but he also made a few head-scratching decisions\u00a0against the Bears, including an outrageous throw into the end zone to a target who was never open, resulting in a\u00a0Jaquan Brisker\u00a0interception\u00a0that didn’t stand only because Brisker didn’t re-establish position inbounds before picking it off. Stafford’s final throw —\u00a0a Brisker interception\u00a0that\u00a0did<\/em>\u00a0stand — felt fitting for a game in which he went without a touchdown, lost a fumble and was asked to captain a ship with a crew that couldn’t consistently execute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hey there, Mr. Perfect. Goff had a historic\u00a0Monday night, completing all 18 of his pass attempts to become the first QB in NFL history with a perfect completion percentage (min. 15 attempts).

My biggest concern with Darnold when he left USC for the NFL draft was his ball security, which tended to be unreliable. Through the first three games of this season, Darnold had done a generally good job in this department, but the second half of a Week 4\u00a0win over the Packers\u00a0revealed some reason to worry. He\u00a0threw an interception\u00a0early in the third quarter,\u00a0was strip-sacked\u00a0in the fourth quarter and needed to work incredibly hard to piece together a scoring drive after finding the going rather easy in the first half. I’m not saying the Packers provided the blueprint for stopping Darnold, but he wasn’t as reliable as he’d been in previous weeks. That doesn’t take away from what he did in the first half, of course, tossing three touchdowns, but it does make me nervous.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Yes, Pittsburgh lost, and the final drive was a tough watch, but for the first time as a Steeler, Fields nearly carried his team to an unlikely win. He continues to ascend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We’re still seeing Cousins’ limitations in his return from the Achilles tear he suffered last year. It looks like Atlanta can’t run a ton of play-action because of Cousins’ struggle to move, and while he’s trying his best to make the most of the situation, he’s also finding inconsistent results. Atlanta didn’t score an offensive touchdown\u00a0in Week 4, and none of its possessions ended in New Orleans’ red zone, which we already know is a tricky area for the Falcons\u2019 offense in 2024. There’s still a lot of newness to Cousins\u2019 experience with his team, and they haven’t quite ironed things out yet.<\/p>\n

THURSDAY NIGHT UPDATE:<\/strong>\u00a0Cousins\u00a0let it rip\u00a0all Thursday night, completing 42 of 58 passes for 509 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. On the walkoff score in overtime\u00a0against the Bucs, he displayed his strong arm;\u00a0KhaDarel Hodge\u00a0did the rest on\u00a0the 45-yard catch and run.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

First, the good news: Herbert looked healthier in Week 4 than he did in Week 3. Los Angeles even rolled him out a few times. He made a couple of great throws to\u00a0Ladd McConkey\u00a0early on\u00a0against the Chiefs, including\u00a0a touchdown pass\u00a0to the rookie receiver in the back of the end zone. But with both starting offensive tackles sidelined, Herbert was under frequent pressure and wasn’t afforded time to get comfortable. In each of the last two weeks, the second-half picture has been too similar: Herbert dropping back to pass in a close game and never having enough time to make magic. Unfortunately, that is going to be his reality until he gets his top tackles back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Brian Daboll seems to have figured out a way to give Jones a chance to succeed. It certainly helps that he has\u00a0Malik Nabers\u00a0as a featured part of his receiving corps,\u00a0when healthy. Nabers once again led the Giants with 12 catches for 115 yards\u00a0in Week 4, but it’s also very nice to see\u00a0Wan’Dale Robinson\u00a0start to emerge as a quality second option in the passing game. None of this happens without the mental fortitude of Jones, who has picked himself off the mat after getting knocked down\u00a0in Week 1\u00a0and has now played three solid games. Sure, New York has only one win to show for it, but Jones looks much better than he did in the season opener. I’m eager to see where he goes from here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Lawrence might be the face of the\u00a0new Dalton Scale. He consistently makes a few really sharp, impressive throws in each game, is talented enough to keep drives going, but also misses too frequently to elevate his team or his own reputation. Such was again the case in a close game against the division-rival Texans in\u00a0Week 4, in which he found\u00a0Brian Thomas Jr.\u00a0with a great pass\u00a0down the sideline, threw a bullet to\u00a0Christian Kirk\u00a0for a\u00a0touchdown\u00a0on an out route, but also\u00a0missed Kirk\u00a0streaking open downfield, sailed a pass over Thomas’ head down the sideline, and never found enough consistency to capitalize on the chance to win. Lawrence just hasn’t done enough to convince me he’ll ever rise beyond this place, which isn’t good for a quarterback\u00a0being paid like the face of a franchise.<\/p>\n

Week 4\u00a0was much like what we’d seen in a typical Minshew start last year. He hit a few nice intermediate throws, missed a handful of others, avoided turning the ball over and helped the Raiders sustain a couple of touchdown drives of 50-plus yards, which ended with receiver rushing touchdowns. It didn’t help that\u00a0Davante Adams\u00a0didn’t play in this game, of course, but while Minshew didn’t go win them this game, he certainly didn’t hurt them, either. If that sounds familiar, that’s essentially what he did in Indianapolis in 2023. Good enough!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There isn’t much to say about Richardson’s performance because he didn’t play much\u00a0against the Steelers. Richardson attempted just four passes, completing three for 71 yards. While he’s good for a deep strike to\u00a0Alec Pierce\u00a0on a weekly basis, his vulnerability as a runner was again apparent when he suffered a\u00a0hip injury, exited, then returned a few plays later and seemed to aggravate the injury on a designed run, sending him to the sideline.\u00a0Joe Flacco\u00a0played well in his place, but the Colts must protect Richardson’s health if he’s going to be their franchise quarterback.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Week 4\u00a0marked a small step forward for Williams, who wasn’t asked to throw a ton of passes like in Week 3 and also enjoyed some long overdue support from the ground game. When he did have to throw, Williams was generally sharp, including when he connected with\u00a0DJ Moore\u00a0for a\u00a0touchdown\u00a0to make it a 17-9 game. Williams has a tendency to freeze in the pocket, almost as if he’s processing his next decision, which got him sacked a few times. Overall, though, it was a solid performance, especially when he was under pressure. He completed seven of 10 such attempts for 78 yards and a touchdown. The rookie wasn’t overwhelmed by the pass rush, despite 13 pressures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

With an admittedly very low bar for expectations, Week 4’s\u00a0loss to the Raiders\u00a0was Watson’s best game of 2024. He completed 75 percent of his passes, was more consistent in the accuracy department, made a few plays with his legs and ripped a couple of beautiful passes in the fourth quarter that didn’t produce positive gains because of circumstances outside of his control. Watson didn’t get overwhelmed by the Raiders’ pass rush until the most crucial play of the game (which resulted in a game-ending sack), but outside of that play, Watson gave the Browns small reasons to believe he might finally settle into his role. Unlike the previous three weeks, Watson wasn’t to blame for Cleveland’s misfortune. That fell on everyone else around him (looking at you,\u00a0Amari Cooper).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Levis\u00a0injured his shoulder\u00a0by courageously diving in an attempt to earn a first down, which is very typical of his playing style. Look, he plays hard, prides himself on his toughness, and sometimes, that blend produces negative results. It was telling that the Titans’ offense steadied with\u00a0Mason Rudolph\u00a0playing in Levis’ place, but that\u00a0shouldn’t lead us to believe\u00a0Levis might lose his job.

At this rate, it’s going to be a long season for Brissett, and it’s no fault of his own. Brissett was pressured at an outrageous rate (53.8 percent) in\u00a0Week 4, was blitzed on 33.3 percent of his dropbacks, and with a ground game that gained just 73 yards on the day, he never stood much of a chance. He managed to throw one touchdown pass to make it a 10-point game, taking advantage of a short field, but that was about it.

It was evident early that Nix had issues controlling the football in the rain\u00a0against the Jets, appearing more like a participant in the shot put than a quarterback at times. His halftime stats reflected it, too: 7-for-15 for 7 yards. But to Nix’s credit, he battled, finding a way to lead an 11-play, 87-yard touchdown drive that included a\u00a0great downfield completion\u00a0to\u00a0Courtland Sutton\u00a0and a lofted pass to a wide-open Sutton for a\u00a0crucial score. Overall, the win wasn’t a pretty day by any stretch of the imagination, but Nix proved he’s mentally tough enough to bounce back from a rough early stretch on the road.

Another week, another starting quarterback, and another familiar result for the Dolphins, who are in a dark place offensively right now.
