Looking at the NFL standings after four weeks, all of the remaining teams in the AFC are undefeated no more. Only the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West remain undefeated, but...

After only four weeks, it is hard to say who will be in the playoffs. The Lions and Jaguars would need a miracle to make the NFL playoffs after losing four games. Things also look bleak for the majority of the 1-3 teams, and some 2-2 teams may find themselves outside of the playoffs in January.

But one thing is for sure, the NFL is a competitive league with some of the world's most skilled players at each position. If the first four weeks of the season are any indication, then this season leading up to the 2021-2022 NFL playoffs should be epic as well as interesting.
