NFL Predictions Week 4: Matt Hasselbeck and 2 QBs Ready for Big Games

After just three weeks, it's become obvious that the NFL has quickly transformed from a run-heavy ideology to this new high-flying aerial attack.

Quarterbacks are passing for more yards than ever before and running the ball has never been more limited.

Some of the typical big-play quarterbacks have remained on top and a few surprise names are added to the list.

Here are three quarterbacks ready for big games in Week 4.

1. Matt Hasselbeck (Tennessee Titans)

Did you know that the Tennessee Titans are 2-1, have the top ranked defense in the league and one of the most overachieving quarterbacks in the league?

Most people don't.

Hasselbeck has stepped up big in Tennessee to start off the year. After three weeks he is ranked third in completion percentage among quarterbacks. The only two players ahead of him are Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady.

His 102.2 quarterback passer rating is one of the best in the league.

This weekend the Titans play the Cleveland Browns. Not only is it another chance for a big game for Hasselbeck, but Tennessee will likely improve to 3-1.

2. Kyle Orton (Denver Broncos)

The Denver Broncos fans may be calling for a different quarterback every single week, but that may stop momentarily after Orton's week four performance.

The Broncos are set to face the Packers, whose only weakness this season has been in pass defense.

If there is one thing the Broncos can do, it's air the ball out.

It may not be the prettiest performance and it likely won't get a win, but Orton should have a good showing against Green Bay.

3. Matt Ryan (Atlanta Falcons)

For some reason, the Atlanta Falcons seem set on the idea of having Matt Ryan throw the ball about five times more a game than the team runs it.

Last week, Ryan had 47 throws to Michael Turner's 11 carries.

The Falcons face the Seahawks this weekend.

Seattle is currently allowing opposing quarterbacks to complete 70 percent of their passes, a statistic worst in the NFL.

If Ryan is going to throw it 50 times yet again, it could mean a huge game.
