Top 10 Most Surprising NFL Teams of Week 4 (2020)

The NFL hit a rocky road as the Tennessee Titans organization had an outbreak of COVID-19 and could face severe consequences. Cam Newton and Stephon Gilmore also tested positive for COVID-19, but regardless, the games must go on. The Shield is not one to cancel the season that easily. Things may be chaotic but at least we still have football for now.
The Top Ten
1 Cleveland Browns The Cleveland Browns are a professional American football team based in Cleveland, Ohio. The Browns compete in the National Football League as a member team of the American Football Conference North division... read more

Cleveland is 3-1. Yes, the Browns have a 3-1 record for the first time since 2001. Are we in the end times yet? The Browns, I would've never thought, would beat Dallas like that. Sure, they might've stolen a game, but scoring 49 points in Jerryworld? Is this actually the Browns? What is happening? Is Cleveland actually for real? Who even knows at this point?

2 Los Angeles Chargers The Los Angeles Chargers are a professional American football team based in Los Angeles. The Chargers compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's American Football Conference West division.

Chargers, what was that? Typical Chargers luck. You had Tampa on the ropes and blew it. How do you blow a 24-7 lead? Justin Herbert, welcome to the Chargers who channel their inner Falcon and find amazing ways to lose games.

3 Carolina Panthers The Carolina Panthers are a professional American football team based in Charlotte, North Carolina, that competes in the National Football League.

Carolina might have a semblance of life. The Panthers are 2-2 after looking dead in the water early on. Their defense may be kind of feisty if they can contain Arizona. I've got to be honest, I didn't see that coming, and maybe the Panthers are better than they thought.

4 Philadelphia Eagles The Philadelphia Eagles are a professional football franchise based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Eagles compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference East division.

HOW? Somehow, some way, this team finds a way. The Eagles may be beaten up with injuries already, but Philadelphia finds a way. They beat San Francisco, who is also beat up, but a win is a win.

The Eagles are somehow in the NFC East lead at 1-2-1. I don't get how this division is that bad. I mean, just... HOW?

5 Green Bay Packers The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference North division. The Packers have won 4 Super Bowls and 13 NFL championships.

The Green Bay Packers are playing like a well-oiled machine. Aaron Rodgers, even without Lazard and Adams, is torching defenses. Robert Tonyan is one of the most under-the-radar tight ends this season. This is a team that is somehow playing like the class of the NFC at the moment. A bit surprising, considering that awful draft, but here we are.

6 Dallas Cowboys The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Cowboys compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference East division.

How about them Cowboys? Dallas, you guys are in trouble. Your defense is bad. Sure, Dak and the offense are effective sometimes, when they don't turn it over, but you know what they say: Defense wins championships.

And right now, your defense is so bad letting Cleveland torch your defense all game long is not a good sign. Is it too early to say you guys are frauds? Thank Atlanta because otherwise you'd be 0-4. And you're in a division that's so bad that nobody wants to win.

7 Houston Texans The Houston Texans are a professional American football team based in Houston, Texas. The team competes in the National Football League as a member club of the American Football Conference South division.

Well, Texans, I've got good news and bad news. The good news is Bill O'Brien is gone, even if it's like a year too late. Now the bad news: you guys are in deep trouble. Going 0-4 is essentially a death sentence in the NFL world and Deshaun Watson can't save you forever. Just throw in the towel because you aren't going to make the playoffs. Interim head coaches rarely work out. Have fun with Romeo Crennel.

8 Arizona Cardinals The Arizona Cardinals are a professional American football franchise based in the Phoenix metropolitan area.

Arizona, what was that? Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins had decent enough performances, and it wasn't enough? How do you lose a game like that? If you want to be taken seriously, you win these types of games. Maybe you were frauds after all.

9 Tampa Bay Buccaneers The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a professional American football franchise based in Tampa, Florida. The Buccaneers currently compete in the National Football League as a member team of the National Football Conference South division.

Quite honestly, where has this Tom Brady been? That's the best I've seen Brady play in a while, throwing five touchdowns and nearly 400 yards. The Buccaneers are actually living up to their hype.

They were left for dead, down by 17 points, but Brady does his thing, and the Buccaneers, after starting 0-1, are now 3-1. Don't look now, but they're first in the NFC South.

10 Minnesota Vikings The Minnesota Vikings are an American football team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Vikings joined the National Football League as an expansion team in 1960, and first took the field for the 1961 season.

Well, congratulations guys, you may have just saved your season and Mike Zimmer's job. Dalvin Cook had a good game and helped the Vikings escape with a win. Perhaps they aren't tanking after all. Who knows?

The Contenders
11 New Orleans Saints The New Orleans Saints are a professional American football team based in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Saints currently compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference South division.
12 Miami Dolphins The Miami Dolphins are a professional American football franchise located in the Miami metropolitan area.
