Packers drop in NFL Week 4 power rankings after loss to Washington
12. Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1-1)
Up against a red-hot Bucs team on the road, this was an impressive performance by the Pittsburgh Steelers, who finally got their first win of the season. Ben Roethlisberger completed 30 of his 38 pass attempts for 353 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. The Steelers got a win, which is exactly what they needed ahead of a divisional showdown with the Ravens in Week 4.
11. Chicago Bears (2-1)
Had it not been for an awful fourth quarter at Lambeau Field in Week 1, the Chicago Bears could be 3-0. Defensively they have been outstanding. The offense still needs work. If they can get more consistent on offense, Chicago will be real contenders in the NFC North.
10. Atlanta Falcons (1-2)
Matt Ryan‘s five touchdown passes is encouraging. As is Calvin Ridley‘s breakout, three-touchdown performance. The real concern here is the defense. The Atlanta Falcons have lost Keanu Neal, Deion Jones and now Ricardo Allen to season-ending injuries. As a result, New Orleans posted 534 total yards and got a key divisional win on the road.
9. Green Bay Packers (1-1-1)
Another slow start proved costly for the Green Bay Packers. Sloppy mistakes on offense, 11 penalties and an awful first-half performance by the defense put the game out of reach. The Packers have a lot to put right ahead of a Week 4 matchup with the Bills.
