# Rich Eisen: Eisen gave his Week 4 NFL power rankings top 10, keeping the Eagles at No. 1 and adding the Seahawks as a new entry, while also predicting Seattle beats Arizona on Thursday night to reach 3-1 and the Rams beat the Colts. **Claimed:** Sep 24, 2025 **Pundit:** Rich Eisen — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/rich-eisen **Outlet:** The Rich Eisen Show (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/the-rich-eisen-show-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air, transcribed by us **Original:** https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/traffic.megaphone.fm/ESP4642084445.mp3?updated=1758738487 4 checkable claims — 2 game outcome picks, 1 conference champion and 1 power ranking — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record. All 4 have settled, averaging 64 out of 100, against 37.1 for a naive guess at the same calls. > I think they're gonna win Thursday night, and I think they're gonna be three and one. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Seattle Seahawks to beat Cardinals** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess - **Detroit Lions to reach the Super Bowl** - Kind: Conference Champions · About: Detroit Lions - Verdict: scored 0 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess - **Los Angeles Rams to beat Colts** - Kind: Game Outcome Picks · About: Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: scored 100 out of 100, against 100 for a naive guess - **The Eagles, one, Bills, two, Chargers, three, Bucks, four, Lions, five. ...
