NFL Week 4's big questions, risers and fallers: Cowboys roll, Bills outplay Dolphins, Chiefs outlast Jets (Lions - Has David Montgomery established himself as the Lions' lead back? After missing last week's action with a thigh injury, Montgomery returned with a three-touchdown performance in Green Bay. He ended up with 121 rushing yards on 32 carries, while first-round rookie Jahmyr Gibbs gained 40 rushing yards off eight carries with four receptions for 11 yards. Sure, Montgomery has scored five rushing touchdowns in his first three games with the Lions, but they'll still continue to use both guys as a tandem while riding the hot hand on a week-to-week basis.  Stock up after the win: CB Jerry Jacobs. The undrafted free agent continues to make a name for himself. He came up with five total tackles and four passes defended while becoming the first cornerback in franchise history to tally two interceptions at Green Bay since Dick LeBeau in 1968.  Stock down after the win: WR Marvin Jones Jr. The 33-year-old continued to struggle, dropping his lone target. In Week 1 at Kansas City, the veteran also dropped a pass and coughed up the first fumble of his 12-year career. His two drops through four games are tied for eighth most in the NFL. -- Eric Woodyard):  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/38505579/nfl-week-4-2023-questions-risers-fallers-takeaways-lessons-stats
