In Sunday's Pittsburgh win, the Ravens defense showed why she was No. 1 in the NFL. Baltimore shut out Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers in the second period, limiting Pittsburgh to 47 yards overall. The Ravens are the only NFL team not to allow a touchdown after halftime this season. This could cause trouble for Baker Mayfield next Sunday. The Ravens are 11-5 against coach John Harbaugh's quarterbacks, imposing 19 interceptions during that period. – Jamison Hensley

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin resolves what went wrong with the Ravens on Sunday night.
Not much to do for a team that strangely lacks identity for four weeks. The Steelers can not stop or run the ball consistently, putting a lot of pressure on Ben Roethlisberger's arm. It works some of the time but is not a balanced formula for winning. The Steelers must discover more splash games on both sides of the ball to settle this void. – Jeremy Fowler
This team is tough. The Bengals could have let things fly after Tyler Eifert injured his leg early in the second half, but they struggled against adversity to keep pace with the Falcons and scored the decisive touchdown. the last 10 seconds. Players around the locker room explained that it was a complete team win, which allowed them to regain their self-confidence when they returned home to welcome the dolphins during the week. 5. – Katherine Terrell

Quarterback Bengals Andy Dalton comments on the perseverance and resistance of the Bengals in a victory against the Falcons.
The 1 to 3 Falcons must find a way to systematically stop the defensive stops. Yes, they lost Pro Bowl defensemen Keanu Neal (ACL) and Deion Jones (foot) as well as defensive captain Ricardo Allen (Achilles). But many of the injuries are self-inflicted, including interceptions, abusive leverage, or personal fouls for late or illegal blows. Defensive end Vic Beasley Jr. said, "We have to stay optimistic." Next week, Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers will not be easier on the road, but at least the Falcons showed signs of passage with Takkarist McKinley winning three sacks. – Vaughn McClure
The defense of the patriots is not as bad as the one announced. After disappointing consecutive performances, they smothered the Dolphins and reassured themselves in the process as they prepared for a quick return with the visiting Colts on Thursday. Losing the rookie linebacker Ja? Whaun Bentley for the season is a hard blow, returns from defensive end Trey Flowers and safety Patrick Chung – who missed a loss of Week 3 in Detroit – showed their value for the # 39; unit. – Mike Reiss
Dolphins are not ready to win the AFC East and their attack requires more consistency. Miami lost 172 total yards against the Patriots. It was also the second week in a row that Miami had 45 pieces or less. The most scary part is coach Adam Gase thinks his team has been "outmatched" by the Patriots. On their way to another match against the Bengals' mighty offensive, the Dolphins must find a way to repair their lack of physics before it starts a good start to the season. – Cameron Wolfe
Things are getting closer for the Titans as they regain their health and the pass game improves. Marcus Mariota and Corey Davis scored nine times for a 161-yard win, including the winning touchdown. The final record included three first-down conversions on the fourth. Getting another win in a tight match will only give more confidence to Mike Vrabel's team who will be heading to Buffalo next week. – Turron Davenport
The Eagles have shown some vulnerabilities that need to be cleaned if they want to fight. There was too much pressure on Carson Wentz (11 hits, four sacks) and too many big games dropped out of high school, which lost safety Rodney McLeod (knee) last week. The Eagles will have to play much cleaner next week against the Vikings, who take revenge. – Tim McManus
The first seven Houston could finally be found. On Sunday, J.J. Watt and Jadeveon Clowney each had two bags. In the past two weeks, Watt has five sacks and 16 quarterbacks, according to NFL Next Gen Stats. The Texans are still struggling to come back after a 0-3 start, but Clowney and Watt will continue to play at a high level next week against the Cowboys. – Sarah Barshop
The Colts are facing a New England team that beat them five straight in their next game in a short week, and there is a good chance they do not have their best receiver for the match. T.Y. Hilton left the first leg Sunday against the Texans, hamstring injury. Coach Frank Reich did not look optimistic about the availability of Hilton, who had four catches for 115 yards before the injury. Hilton has only missed two career games. – Mike Wells
1:15
Based on Colts' level of talent, Ryan Clark and Jeff Saturday believe coach Frank Reich has made the right choice not to play equally.
Ezekiel Elliott called the victory "probably the most important of the season to regain the pace after a slow start". The Cowboys got Elliott with 152 yards and 88 passing yards, and right-back Zack Martin said he looked more like the old man's offensive, which they'll need if they want to support a series of victories. The Cowboys have played five games of at least 30 yards against the Lions, after registering only one of these games earlier in the season. – Todd Archer
Detroit regained his offensive pace, with Matthew Stafford scoring 131.5 smugglers. And yet, with a lead of 24-23 with 2:17 left, the Lions could not do much on defense to stop Dallas. And that 's worry, the Detroit offense is going to have to be so good this season for the Lions to make up for the defensive deficiencies. – Michael Rothstein
The Jaguars have allowed four touchdowns in four games, the least in the NFL and the least in four games in franchise history. The opponents scored only 56 points and averaged only 259.3 yards per game. Both lead the league, having forced only three turnovers and only recorded six sacks. Sunday's match in Kansas City will be the toughest game the Jaguars will face all season, and players know they need to increase the pressure and get some turnarounds to stop what many see as the best attack of the season. NFL. –Mike DiRocco
You knew that Jets would experience growing pains in attack with a rookie quarter, but the defense? There is no excuse for what happened on Sunday. The Jets have allocated a total of 503 yards, the highest since 2008. Each level of defense has been poor, especially the linebackers. If they can not count on defense, the Jets have no hope for the rest of the season. – Rich Cimini
A day that should have focused on the Packers' defense and his first shutout in nearly eight years is rather turned into a question about what is wrong with the offensive after Aaron Rodgers He called it "level without playoffs". A frustrated Rodgers still led the offensive at 423 yards, but it is clear that he wants more if the Packers are going to be a Super Bowl contender. – Rob Demovsky
0:31
Aaron Rodgers explains that the defense played well today, but that the attack was neglected.
The Bills seem to be getting closer to potential staff changes around rookie quarterback Josh Allen after Buffalo's first shutout loss since 2008. Allen has launched two interceptions, but has gotten that little help of the current game and the offensive line. Sean McCoy was limited to 85 rushing yards this season while Kelvin Benjamin has 92 yards. Four weeks into the trade deadline, the future for both players in Buffalo looks bleak. – Mike Rodak
A decisive win over the Buccaneers could mark a turning point for second-year Mitchell Trubisky and the attack. The game plan included many designed readings and open projection windows for Trubisky, who had career highs in yards (354) and touchdowns (6). Before Sunday, he had never thrown more than two touchdowns in a match. The Bears enter the week off with confidence. "I hope it's something that I can look back and say," It's here that it all started, "Trubisky said. – Emily Kaplan
Defensively, there was no pressure and the receivers were wide open. A well-tapped young schoolgirl can not be an excuse for a second-year quarterback. This is the 19th time in 36 games that Mike Smith has become defensive coordinator and the defense has yielded more than 400 yards. When asked Bucs coach, Dirk Koetter, he was considering changing coordinator during the week off, he said: "Because of this match today, we are not going to be able to do anything. we could not make enough changes. , starting with me. It was horrible. " – Jenna Laine
After Oakland led the first two games of the season in the second half and was beaten 64-17 after half-time, one wonders if the Raiders could rally to win. Rookie Kicker signed this week to give coach Jon Gruden his first win. The fanfare needed to compete on the road against the Chargers next week may not be quite back, but it's booming. – Paul Gutierrez
Baker Mayfield could not defeat the recent plague of the Browns. In addition to Mayfield playing, the Browns lost another 14 points in the second half to Oakland. The focus is on the future: finding a way to excel to win another game. The Browns continue to make their own loss. – Pat McManamon
0:40
Hue Jackson said the Browns' offensive was neglected today and gave the Raiders too much opportunity to win.
The last picture of Earl Thomas wearing the Seahawks' uniform could well be the major's gesture towards the Seattle bench while he was being taken off the field on a wagon. Coach Pete Carroll has described as fracture the injury to Thomas's leg, which will likely end his season and potentially his career in Seattle. It is for this reason that Frank Clark stated that the Seahawks were the losers, even though they won on the pitch of Sebastian Janikowski. In front of the home game of Week 5 against the unbeaten of Week 5, 2-2, Seattle knows that his bid for a playoff spot will take a hit without Thomas, a defensive pillar and the last member of the Boom Legion . – Brady Henderson
Josh Rosen was on the alert, comfortable and in a good position as he showed the arm that so many people had suspected during the preparation process. Even though Rosen drove Arizona on a high pressure drive at the end of the fourth quarter and brought it back to the end zone, that was not enough. Kicker veteran Phil Dawson missed 45 yards, allowing Seattle to walk the other way and hit his own winning kick. Cardinals remain without victory. – Josh Weinfuss
The Saints must feel good in their 3-1 record, knowing they have not really played a full game this season. But Drew Brees spoke Sunday of the value of finding different ways to win (he and the passing game have struggled, while Alvin Kamara, defensive and kicker Wil Lutz have done most of the work). Now, the Saints can try to reach their climax during a Monday night home game against the Redskins in Week 5, as Brees is about to break the NFL and Mark's passing record. Return suspension ingram. – Mike Triplett
This last defeat of the Giants looked a lot like many of them in the last five years: The offensive was just not enough. The Giants accumulated 193 total yards in the middle of the fourth quarter and could not reach 20 points for the third time in four games. They are a lost franchise with two top 10 defenses – the Panthers and Eagles – on the deck. It could become ugly. – Jordan Raanan

Ryan Clark and Jeff Saturday react to the Giants' defeat and both say Odell Beckham Jr. needs to get more involved.
Fleeing by almost 14 points, the Chargers were led by Philip Rivers (250 passing yards, three assists TD) and Melvin Gordon (104 yards rushing). However, the Chargers still have problems with the kicker, as Caleb Sturgis missed two more points and a 54-yard penalty. "We are going to look at this," said coach Anthony Lynn when asked if he would make a change to the kicker. "And if we can not make it better, we'll have to do something about it." – Eric D. Williams
When the disappointment of the narrow road loss runs out of steam, the 49ers should wake up Monday feeling even better against the young quarterback The ability of C.J. Beathard to replace Jimmy Garoppolo. Beathard's toughness was obvious and he paired it up with production, throwing almost 300 yards and bringing back the Niners in a match that seemed lost after several injuries and a costly interception of the red zone that was not his fault. The Niners have sworn allegiance to Beathard for a reason, and if he can continue to offer such shows, his decision might be wise. – Nick Wagoner
Jared Goff and the Rams attack seemed unstoppable. Goff set up a passing clinic, connecting to Cooper Kupp's 70-yard touchdown and Brandin Cooks' 47-yard score. In all, he threw for 465 yards and five touchdowns. The Rams will defend the Seahawks next week on the road. – Lindsey Thiry
Minnesota continues to have problems with steering errors that force its defenders to position themselves. Coach Mike Zimmer has assumed his responsibilities, admitting to having "overloaded" his unit. The Viking Pass defense was the worst in five years in Zimmer, Minnesota, and he said he did not know what to do about it. The unit ranks last in the NFL to defend the pass and something must change to avoid digging the Vikings' hole. – Courtney Cronin
