#5 Los Angeles Rams
The Los Angeles Rams came into this season as the heavy Super Bowl favorites, but now find themselves at 1-2 after three weeks, with their lone win coming when Jameis Winston had to step in for the injured Jaxson Dart. Long-term, the Rams should be just fine, but we may have overrated them a little coming into the season.
#1 New England Patriots
The only quarterback more disappointing than Justin Herbert over the first three weeks has been Drake Maye. Maye's struggles can be traced back to last year's postseason, and they have carried over into this season. Maye has collected six interceptions compared to just one touchdown pass. A.J. Brown is expected to be back in the next few weeks, but Maye and the Patriots have a lot to figure out, especially with the Buffalo Bills looking borderline unstoppable. Going into Week 4, they are the most overrated team in the league.
#2 Los Angeles Chargers
The Los Angeles Chargers have been the NFL's biggest disappointment through the first three weeks of this season. Justin Herbert has never looked more lost in Mike McDaniel's offense, and Jim Harbaugh's seat continues to get warmer. The schedule does not get any easier over the next several weeks, with an 0-7 start being firmly on the table.
#3 Green Bay Packers
The 'fire Matt LaFleur' calls have only gotten louder since last Thursday, after the Atlanta Falcons dominated them on their field, marking Green Bay's first loss in a home opener since 2012. Dating back to last year, the Packers have now lost 7 of their last 8 games. In a tough NFC North, Green Bay seems to have been greatly overrated going into this year.
#4 Philadelphia Eagles
The Eagles got a wake-up call on Monday Night against the Chicago Bears, led by Case Keenum. Keenum returned to the field for the first time in over 1,000 days and looked like he hadn't missed a beat. Vic Fangio's defense is supposed to stabilize this team. After two close wins against the Commanders and Titans, followed by an embarrassing showing Monday Night, the Eagles have much to figure out.
