4 Most Overrated Teams in the NFL Right Now

Believe it or not, we're heading into Week 5 of the NFL season already. Time is flying, but perhaps we are jumping the gun on a few squads through a quarter of the year.

Which teams have proven to be totally overrated early on this campaign?

4. Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys entered Sunday Night Football with a chance to silence all of their haters. Instead, they totally dropped the ball. Even without Drew Brees, the Saints took down Dallas 12-10. Jason Witten and Ezekiel Elliott had costly fumbles, while Dak Prescott couldn't get the offense into a consistent rhythm. Fans were dreaming of a Super Bowl. Time to pump the brakes on that one when your three wins are against an Eli Manning-led Giants team, the Redskins and the Dolphins.

3. Baltimore Ravens

After a strong 2-0 start, Baltimore has now lost back-to-back games. Perhaps we gave them too much credit for taking down the Dolphins and Cardinals? This past Sunday, the supposed tremendous Baltimore defense gave up 40 points to the Browns. While Cleveland has made a stupendous turnaround on O, there's no excuse to ever give up 40 points, especially to a division opponent.

2. Minnesota Vikings

After smoking the Raiders in Week 3, Minnesota fans thought this Vikings team was starting to click. Well, fast forward to Week 4, and the offense couldn't do a darn thing against the Chicago Bears. To make matters worse, Adam Thielen basically threw Kirk Cousins under the bus for not being able to get the offense moving. Yup, this team has a lot of issues to work out before we consider them playoff contenders. Wins over the Falcons and Raiders aren't exactly resume builders.

1. Los Angeles Rams

Who in the heck saw this coming? Entering Sunday, the Rams were monster favorites against the Bucs. Jameis Winston against the LA defense? Good luck, right? Well, Famous Jameis threw for 385 yards and four touchdowns in a 55-40 win. Jared Goff played like garbage in the first half, and his late heroics weren't enough. If LA gives up 55 points at home to Tampa Bay, imagine what will happen once they face a true contender. After all, their wins so far have been over the Browns (solid), Panthers and a Drew Brees-less Saints team that saw a potential game-changing TD called back because the refs can't do their job.
