October 5, 2026

Week 4 of the NFL delivered a mix of dominant offensive displays and late-game drama, with the Dallas Cowboys and Jacksonville Jaguars leading the charge. The Cowboys continued their relentless start with a decisive win over the Houston Texans, where CeeDee Lamb once again led the stat sheet and Nico Collins returned to the offense.

Meanwhile, the Jaguars’ high-powered attack rolled on, defeating the Cincinnati Bengals in another commanding performance. The San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs also remained undefeated, with the 49ers shutting out the Denver Broncos at home and the Chiefs narrowly escaping the Oakland Raiders in a tight contest.

Elsewhere, the Carolina Panthers’ Bryce Young and Tetairoa McMillan delivered a prime-time upset against the Detroit Lions, while the New England Patriots’ Drake Maye and the team’s offense appeared to turn a corner with a surprising win over the Buffalo Bills. The Los Angeles Rams also posted a victory, though both teams continue to refine their offensive approaches.

Off the field, concerns grew over Lamar Jackson’s ankle injury after his team’s dominant showing against the New York Jets.
