NFL Week 4: Examining Struggles of Winless Teams

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Six NFL teams enter Week 4 without a win, raising concerns about their future. The teams include the Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, Houston Texans, New Orleans Saints, Tennessee Titans, and New York Giants.

The Dolphins sit at 0-3 after close losses in their last two games. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa acknowledged the frustration fans feel, stating, “We go out there and we don’t look the part as we have in previous years.” The Dolphins are ranked last in scoring, which highlights a significant need for improvement.

The Jets are also struggling, especially on defense. They have yet to force a turnover this season, which is impacting their chances of winning. Head coach Aaron Glenn indicated the team needs to find its identity, emphasizing a commitment to running the ball and creating short fields for their offense.

Houston’s offense is averaging just 12 points per game, putting immense pressure on their defense. They have suffered through multiple injuries, and head coach DeMeco Ryans stressed the importance of execution to avoid further decline.

Meanwhile, the Saints find themselves at a crossroads after a poor showing against Seattle last week. The disconnect between the offense and the defense has been evident, prompting speculation about their future direction, particularly regarding quarterback play.

The Titans have not found their footing, with their offense ranking low in multiple statistical categories. Coach Brian Callahan is under pressure to improve performance, particularly as they face an upcoming game that could define their season.

Finally, the Giants have turned to rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart as they look to spark their stagnant offense. Head coach Brian Daboll is aware that Dart’s performance could determine his own future with the team. Dart’s ability to read defenses effectively could be the key to breaking the team’s losing streak.

As these teams prepare for Week 4, each one must confront their challenges head-on. A victory for any of them could shift the momentum and restore hope for the remainder of the season.
