The first four weeks of the NFL season aren’t exactly the quarter pole anymore, not with all teams playing 17 games instead of 16. However, this is the last time until December that all teams will have played the same amount of games at the end of a week of action.
With the Lions among the teams heading onto a bye in Week 5, let’s see how all the NFL teams stack up after the first four weeks of football. They’re divided into tiers, and within the individual tiers there is very little differentiation from the top to the bottom.
