Summary
San Francisco emerged from Week 4 as the league’s clearest front-runner at 4-0 after a 24-14 win over Denver, with a +58 point differential and three double-digit victories.
Dallas delivered the day’s biggest swing, rallying past Houston 34-30 with 28 second-half points; the Texans dropped to 0-4 after blowing a double-digit lead.
Seattle’s 30-23 win sent the Chargers to 0-4 as well, leaving Los Angeles facing a brutal upcoming stretch and an early-season hole that already looks season-threatening.
New York added to the reshuffled picture by moving to 3-1 and first in the NFC East behind Jameis Winston, while New England stunned previously unbeaten Buffalo 29-26.
Elsewhere, Kansas City and Minnesota also reached 4-0, but the Week 4 takeaways centered on San Francisco’s dominance and how quickly playoff hopes are fading for winless teams.
