NFL power rankings entering Week 4 of the 2025 season (previous rank in parentheses):

1. Philadelphia Eagles (1): They're not blowing anyone's doors off. Not yet, anyway. But one surefire sign of a champion, one that's won 12 in a row at home and 19 of 20 overall going back to last season, is the ability to win in multiple ways − and Philly finally broke the seal on its passing game and leveraged timely special teams plays to overcome a 19-point deficit against a legit Rams squad Sunday. Also, doesn't hurt to have a 336-pound defensive lineman who can rev to nearly 20 mph. Next up? The Kryptonite Bucs, who have beaten Philly in six of their past seven meetings.

2. Buffalo Bills (2): They're favored by 16½ points, per BetMGM, to beat New Orleans this Sunday in what could be the lock of the year − a 14th straight regular-season victory at Highmark Stadium.

3. Los Angeles Chargers (6): The Bolts just became the third team since realignment in 2002 to open a season 3-0 by sweeping all of their divisional opponents. Next up, a two-game detour through the NFC East − starting with the winless Giants on the road.

4. Los Angeles Rams (5): They've lost four of their past 12 games − a Week 18 contest they didn't need in January … and three setbacks to Philly. Shoulda kept the gas pedal down Sunday. On the plus side, the injury bug has stayed away from QB Matthew Stafford and Co. so far in the regular season while biting down hard on the Rams' NFC West rivals.
