07 October 2026: In the real-world NFL, week 4 turned out to be a big week for teams on the road, with the Patriots scoring a win over the Bills; the Cowboys winning an all-Texas affair against the Texans; the Rams making a dramatic comeback against the Eagles; and despite neither team being geographically at home, the Colts as the nominated away team came back after a slow start to defeat the Commanders in London. So did the performances on the NFL Retro Bowl '27 Championship leaderboard match the real-world?

Well, the first matchup didn’t go to script: on the leaderboard the Bills gave the Patriots something of a thrashing, winning with a score of 13.5m to the Patriots’ 8.6m, keeping the Bills in 4th and closing the gap to the Eagles in 3rd. The Rams also couldn’t replicate their win against the Eagles, and were comfortably defeated, dropping a place to 13th. The other two fixtures matched the real-world NFL results though, with the Cowboys’ beating the Texans handily, and the Colts proving too much for the Commanders who, despite the defeat, still managed to outscore the teams around them and climb one place to 18th on the leaderboard. 

At the top of the table, the 49ers continue to occupy the top spot, but for the first week of the season they were not the top scorers. That honour goes to the Ravens who posted an enormous score of more than 14m to defeat the Titans and close the gap to the 49ers at the top. Of course, it’s still only week 4, and you the players can change everything as we enter Week 5! Show your support for your team & move them up the leaderboard by playing next week's game and setting the highest score you can. 

Our weekly special mention for this week's highest individual score on the leaderboard goes to the Lions fan who posted a score of 15,256! Congratulations on a fabulous score, and for taking the title of week four MVP!
