2025 NFL Energy Rankings Week 4: How Many Groups Are Really Nice?

Three weeks into the season and I’m so dissatisfied. So many groups that I had such excessive hopes for have let me down.

I do know, it’s an extended season (although it’s just about over already in Houston). There’s loads of time for the Packers to play to their potential and for the Cardinals to repair their offense. 

Within the meantime, I’ll simply shuffle my NFL Energy Rankings once more, heading into what I’m certain will likely be an unpredictable Week 4.

Aaron Rodgers acquired it performed when it mattered, going 4 for 4 for 50 yards on the game-winning landing drive within the fourth quarter in opposition to New England. But it surely’s worrisome that he was solely 12 of 19 for 89 yards the remainder of the sport.

Certain, their schedule has been a bit comfortable. However they’re within the prime seven in each offense and protection and Daniel Jones and Jonathan Taylor make a heck of a backfield tandem. An enormous take a look at is coming in L.A. in opposition to the Rams on Sunday.

Raheem Morris swears he isn’t contemplating a quarterback change, however perhaps he must be. Michael Penix Jr. was terrible in opposition to the Panthers (18 of 36, 172 yards, 2 INTs). Possibly watching Kirk Cousins for just a few weeks wouldn’t be such a nasty thought.
