There are six winless teams in the NFL entering Week 4 of the 2025 season, and based on the matchups, somebody out of that group is going to have to win a game this week. Let’s take a look at the six teams still vying for their first win and try to assess which ones have the best chance to get it this week.
Somebody has to win: Houston Texans, Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets
More specifically, two of these teams are going to win this week because they are all playing each other. And if none of them get a win, that means a nearly unprecedented week of two ties, which might actually be kind of fitting given the way things have gone for this group.
The Texans seem to be the best bet out of this group to get a win for two reasons. The first is they have the best quarterback out of the four in C.J. Stroud.
They are also at home against a bad Titans team that is still playing with a rookie quarterback (Cam Ward) that is still trying to find his way in the NFL. Of the six win-less teams the Texans have by far the best roster on paper and are the most likely team to rebound and stay competitive. Whether or not they can actually do that remains to be seen. But they have the talent at some of the key positions. By default, that should leave the Titans as the least-likely out of this group.
The Jets and Dolphins, meanwhile, will subject the entire nation to their brand of football on Monday night, and it’s sure to go poorly for everybody. Miami put together a valiant effort against the Buffalo Bills last week and is coming in with some extra rest. That could help. It’s also a team that should be better than this.
The Jets are still trying to get rookie head coach Aaron Glenn his first win and are not that far away from being 2-1 as opposed to 0-3. They lost on a 60-yard field goal in Week 1, and then lost a crushing game in Tampa Bay this past Sunday. This one might be a coin-flip.
Not very likely to win: New York Giants
Maybe the Giants get the
