NFL Power Rankings Week 5 and Recap

      The NFL Power Rankings Week 5 and Recap after week 4 of the Season. Week 4 started off with the Bengals taking care of business against a confused and not good Dolphins football team. Matt Ryan threw for over 500 yards and 5 TD's and Julio Jones caught 300 yards of those as the Falcons crushed the Panthers. Ever since the first game of the season where Cam Newton took some vicious hits to the head, He definitely hasn't been the same and was knocked out of this game with an concussion.  Big Ben and the Steelers rebounded from their terrible performance a week ago and destroyed the Chiefs.  The Raiders won for the 3rd straight road game and handed the Ravens their first loss of the season. The Saints won for the first time with a 4th quarter comeback against the Chargers. The Broncos continued to roll and won their 4th straight game as starting QB Siemian went down with a shoulder injury and back up rookie QB Lynch led them to victory. The Bills went into New England and shutout the Patriots in the last game before Tom Brady is back from suspension. Minnesota behind QB Bradford and arguably the best defense in the NFL right now, remained unbeaten. In that game, NY Giants star WR Odell Beckham Jr. continued to have melt down after melt down and is becoming a huge distraction at this point. Arizona also lost for the 3rd time in 4 games and Carson Palmer went down with a concussion.  And the Bears behind back up QB Brian Hoyer beat the listless and lifeless Lions to win their first game of the year.  Injuries continue to mount and decimate some teams on both sides of the ball and it looks like this season will be a marathon instead of an all out sprint as to which teams will remain the healthiest will make the playoffs and continue onto the Super Bowl. Cooper went 11-4 in his week 4 picks and is 47-16 for the season   We will continue to post His record for each weekend and season total.                                                                                                               twitter; @cupofjoeinthed    email; cupofjoeinthed@gmail.com
