NFL Week 4 overreactions and reality checks Has the game passed Bill B

Week 4 in the was a crazy one, especially in the early slate of Sunday afternoon games. The nearly upset the in overtime, while the had a furious comeback against the . The crushed the and the destroyed the . The remained unbeaten and the continued to struggle.There were plenty of reactions to what happened, but which ones are overreactions and which are reality? Let's take a look.Overreaction or reality: RealitySomething needs to be done in Chicago if the Bears want to turn things around -- or do they (more on that in a bit)? The Bears blew a 21-point lead, matching the largest blown lead in franchise history. They have lost 14 straight games and has been the starting quarterback in 12 consecutive lo ses (the longest by any first-round quarterback since Archie Manning). Fields threw for 335 yards and four touchdowns and still took the lo s, as the Bears have allowed 25-plus points in 14 straight games.Eberflus was part of the collapse, going for it on fourth-and-1 at the Broncos' 18 instead of kicking a field goal with 2:52 left in a Martin Havlat Jersey  28-28 game. The Bears were stuffed, and the ball was taken out of Fields' hands.  The Bears currently own the No. 1 and No. 2 picks in the . Perhaps there's a method to why they are losing at this point, but Eberflus won't last the season. He probably shouldn't be the head coach next week.Overreaction or reality: OverreactionA blowout lo s to Buffalo shouldn't squash Anthony Duclair Jersey  any hopes in Miami, but this is a bad lo s for the Dolphins -- especially since they got to play in Buffalo on the first day of October. The defense shut down the Dolphins' offense from making big plays, as they only had four of 20-plus yards. Miami averaged 7.5 yards per carry and had 142 yards rushing, yet still could only muster 20 points.The Bills -- specifically -- just have the Dolphins' number. Allen went 21 of 25 for 320 yards with four pa sing touchdowns and a rushing score (perfect 158.3 rating) as Miami's defense had no answer for him or (six catches, 120 yards, three touchdowns). Miami only forced Buffalo to punt twice out of the 10 po se sions that didn't result in the end of the half or game.  The Dolphins are still AFC East and conference contenders. Buffalo just has Miami's number.Overreaction or reality: RealityThe Patriots didn't even belong on the same field as the Dallas Cowboys in their 38-3 blowout lo s, the largest lo s of Belichick's career. This is the third straight season the Patriots have started 1-3 and the offense isn't any better than it was last year.New England has 55 points through four games, the lowest since 2000 for the franchise (Belichick's first year). The Patriots went scorele s on their final 10 drives of the game.  Belichick can still coach defense with the best of them, but offense rules in today's NFL. The Patriots haven't had that offensive spark since left in 2019, something to ponder when debating if Brady actually was the one that made Belichick one of the greatest head coaches ever.Belichick can still coach, but he just doesn't seem to get the right offensive pieces on his team. getting benched isn't going to help matters.Overreaction or reality: RealityIt was another brutal outing for Burrow as the Bengals were blown out by the . Burrow finished 20 of 30 for 165 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions in the 27-3 lo s, adding to his struggles as the Bengals are off to a 1-3 start. Burrow has the fewest yards CM Punk Women Jersey  per attempt (4.8) through four team games by any quarterback in any season since 1950 (minimum 150 attempts).  The Bengals have scored just 49 points in four games. Remember they have Burrow, , , and on their roster. In the past two games, Burrow is 46 of 79 for 424 yards with no touchdowns and two turnovers. Chase wants the ball and Higgins has three games having under 25 yards receiving.The Bengals are a me s on offense and Burrow's calf isn't getting any better. Perhaps a few games rest would do their franchise quarterback some good, even if it costs Cincinnati games in the proce s. The Bengals are losing Burrow, anyway.Overreaction or reality: RealityThe Steelers Jordin Tootoo Kids Jersey  offense hit a new low point in Sunday's lo s to the Texans. They scored just six points and tallied just 225 yards of offense in the blowout lo s, their 52nd straight game without 400 total yards (the longest streak since the 2009-2013 ).   was just 15 of 23 for 114 yards and an interception before exiting the game with a knee injury. The Steelers didn't score until the second half and had 53 yards at halftime on 24 plays.Head coach Mike Tomlin said the Steelers have "got to make some changes" after the lo s, which should start with Canada. Pittsburgh is 25th in total yards since Canada became offensive coordinator in 2021 and 31st in yards per play. They are also 26th in points scored in that span.Pickett isn't improving and the offensive line has been atrocious throughout Canada's reign. May be time for a change.  Overreaction or reality: OverreactionThe Eagles are 4-0 for the second consecutive season, but the reigning NFC champions aren't dominating opponents like last year. One week the running game is excellent and the pa sing game is off. One week the defense can shut down the pa s and the next week teams are converting big plays against the secondary.Philadelphia needed overtime to beat Washington on Sunday, getting to 4-0 in the proce s. had his best game of the year, but the running game was off and the offense went 4 of 12 on third down. The defense gave up a touchdown pa s with no time left in regulation, but got bailed out by Ron Rivera not going for two and the win -- allowing them to force a three-and-out in overtime (the second chance  Adam Boqvist Men Jersey they needed).The Eagles are one of two unbeaten teams left and have a lot of talent, but they are trying to piece everything together. San Francisco is 4-0 and playing very well every single week, but of course it's only the first day of October.  Philadelphia knows how to win, and that's enough right now. They do need to clean some things up, but are making timely plays to ensure victories.
