NFL Power Rankings Week 4: 2015-16 Conference Standings and Super Bowl Odds

In the aftermath of Week 3, things look somewhat normal again in the NFL.

The Jacksonville Jaguars took a whipping at the hands of the New England Patriots, 51-17, the season's most disappointing team looks like a tie between the Miami Dolphins and San Francisco 49ers and major injuries look set to derail season hopes.

In other words, it's time for bettors to get to work.

Below, let's take a look at updated standings, power rankings based on the happenings through three weeks and how Las Vegas feels about it all.

Analyzing Notable Week 3 Movers

Baltimore Ravens (75-1)

Nick Wass/Associated Press

Down and down the odds for the Baltimore Ravens continue to go. 

Ray Lewis isn't walking through that door, folks, so if this looks like a good payout, think again. Joe Flacco's team sits in an 0-3 hole. It was easy to forgive a Week 1 loss in Denver, but going to Oakland the week after and losing isn't acceptable; nor is a pitiful homestand against the Cincinnati Bengals this past weekend.

There, the Ravens ran for just 36 yards behind a miserable offensive line and the defense allowed Andy Dalton to toss three touchdowns, taking full advantage of a unit missing Terrell Suggs' rush and any form of consistency in the secondary.

To top it all off, the Ravens can't help but continue to shoot themselves in the foot. Brian Bower of Russell Street Report provided the numbers:

"

Through three games this season, the #Ravens have 26 penalties for 240 yards. #Discipline

— Brian Bower (@sportguyRSR) September 28, 2015"

Three losses in as many weeks to start the season is usually the death knell for a team's season.

With injuries and sloppy football bountiful, it would be wise for bettors to look the other way.

Detroit Lions (200-1)

Rick Osentoski/Associated Press

The Lions sit in a similar hole and have watched as the chance at anything significant decreases by the week. 

Quarterback Matthew Stafford has five interceptions in the team's three losses, Calvin Johnson has just 20 catches for 199 yards and a touchdown and the offense has yet to rush at least 20 times in a contest.

What's going on? Tight end Eric Ebron, like most of the globe, doesn't seem to have an answer, per NBC Sports:

It looks like a bevy of factors at face value. The offensive line isn't opening up holes for the backs, forcing Stafford to do too much. Not to mention the play-calling isn't what one would classify as inspired. The defense misses Ndamukong Suh in the middle. The schedule didn't do the team any favors, either, not with trips to San Diego and Minnesota before a homestand against Denver.

Things don't get easier. Next up is a trip to Seattle before a visit from Arizona. Both Green Bay and Minnesota already have two wins apiece.

There's a chance Stafford and Co. can turn things around, but history says it's a steep climb.

New York Giants (40-1)

Frank Franklin II/Associated Press

How's this for a value buy despite the rise? 

The Giants have just a single win, but things couldn't be going better. Losses to a healthy Dallas Cowboys team and the Atlanta Falcons in the first two weeks aren't anything to fret over, especially not after a 32-21 win against Washington on Thursday Night Football.

Eli Manning and Co. have extra time to get healthy and prepare for a trip to Buffalo given how the schedule falls. This means players who missed last Thursday's game—wideout Victor Cruz, tackle Ereck Flowers and corner Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, to name a few—should be ready to go.

With so many big names coming back, it's hard to ignore the Giants in the NFC East, where Washington and Philadelphia tout one win apiece and look lost and Dallas has two wins but has to move forward without Tony Romo and Dez Bryant.

Even without Cruz, Eli Manning continues to play well by completing 64.8 percent of his passes with four touchdowns to no interceptions. The losses to prolific offenses like Dallas and Atlanta came by a combined five points.

A combination of getting healthy and taking advantage of a messy division make this a can't-miss set of odds even after the line's recent movement.
