Los Angeles Rams at Seattle Seahawks

The Rams made it all the way to the Super Bowl last year, but if they're going to even win the NFC West this season, they have to tighten some things up.

They are 3-1, but they're coming off a loss in which they surrendered 55 points to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers—at home. With a defense that features the likes of Aaron Donald, Dante Fowler Jr., Eric Weddle and Aqib Talib, this is a cause for concern.

Of course, not all of the blame can be put on the defense. Quarterback Jared Goff made his fair share of mistakes—he had four turnovers—and he's been in a bit of a slump this season. He has nine turnovers to go with seven interceptions, and his passer rating of 82.9 is his lowest since his rookie season in 2016.

Seattle shares Los Angeles' 3-1 record, and this game is equally important for the Seahawks. Whoever loses could be a full game behind the 49ers, who will enter Monday night at 3-0.

Green Bay Packers at Dallas Cowboys

Both the Packers and the Cowboys are coming off of surprising losses. Dallas went into New Orleans and had its offense stymied by the Saints. The Packers got pushed around at home by the Philadelphia Eagles and their running game. 

One of these two teams has to rebound in Week 5.

On paper, this is a game that favors Dallas. The Cowboys are at home, and they have one of the league's best running backs in Ezekiel Elliott. They will look to emulate Philadelphia's run-first strategy, and the 24-year-old is looking to rebound from a poor game in New Orleans.

"You've got to take it personally, but you've also got to take what you've learned from the game and move on," Elliott said, per ESPN's Todd Archer.

For the Cowboys to actually win, though, they'll have to be more efficient offensively than they were against the Saints. Scoring 10 points probably won't be enough to put away the Packers.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Carolina Panthers

Sunday's game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Carolina Panthers is intriguing because it's going to feature a pair of backup quarterbacks who just might be a big part of the NFL's future.

Gardner Minshew II has been starting in place of Nick Foles for Jacksonville and has become a sensation. Kyle Allen has started the past two games for Carolina and is expected to start a third in place of Cam Newton.

There's a good chance Minshew will become the long-term starter at quarterback the Jaguars have been searching for. So far this season, he's thrown for 905 yards with seven touchdowns and just one interception.

Allen may not take Newton's job in Carolina, but he's certainly auditioning for a future starting gig. He's thrown for 493 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in his two starts, both wins.

Jacksonville and Carolina are both 2-0 over the past two weeks.
