Winners and losers from NFL Week 4, plus Tom Brady's return lives up to the hype, Raiders-Chargers picks

Here's everything you need to know about the NFL for Oct. 4
Welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!
After spending the past week talking about nothing except for Tom Brady's return to New England, I have some bad news for you (or good news, depending on your point of view): We're going to talk about it some more today and that's because the Patriots and Buccaneers gave us a crazy game.
I didn't think it was possible, but Brady's return to New England actually lived up to the hype, and to be honest, it might have exceeded it. I was on the edge of my seat for four straight quarters and I almost fell off my seat when Bill Belichick decided to attempt a 56-yard field goal in the final minutes despite the fact that there appeared to be a hurricane in New England. Despite the heavy rain, Nick Folk's kick ALMOST went in, but it bounced off the left upright, allowing Brady to escape with a 19-17 win.
