Week 7 of the NFL calendar features our first bye-pocolypse of the season, with the Bills, Cowboys, Chargers, Jaguars, Steelers, and Vikings all taking the week off. That doesn’t mean the 13 games on the slate won’t be enough to fill our cups! We’ve got several lines impacted by the potential for lingering injury news, plus some others that just don’t feel like they should possibly remain at the position they’re in for long. Spreads started to move quickly when the Week 7 lines first hit the board, with DraftKings bettors reacting to the results of Week 6.

Denver Broncos At Cleveland Browns Week 7 Odds & Pick

Instead, Baltimore drops to 4-3 and a half-game behind rival Pittsburgh. Now, the Ravens head to Carolina to face the Panthers this Sunday. At 3-3, Detroit is still very much alive in the NFC North race. They are just a half-game behind Green Bay, a team they have already beaten and play once more.

Chiefs Vs Titans Prediction

The 49ers’ offense needs more from quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, and its defense is missing too many important players. The Patriots may not be a top contender, but they’re not “scoring just 12 Bettors Club points against Denver” level bad. In the examples from above, you’d just say that the spread is seven with Green Bay favored, and the odds are -110 both ways. When you go to the sportsbook, you’ll see a whole bunch of numbers that will probably be confusing or overwhelming to the novice sports bettor. Betting the NFL can also be heartbreaking, but by knowing what the line is, you’ll be able to make a more informed bet.

Big Blue has been terrible at MetLife Stadium, with quarterback Daniel Jones especially struggling at the venue. The signal-caller is 4-12 ATS as a starter, throwing 14 touchdowns against 19 interceptions. If you are looking for some guidance on which games to bet in Week 7, you have come to the right place. Below you will find betting trends and leans for some of the top games on the slate. ASSOCIATED PRESS Over a third of the 2021 NFL season is in the books and there have been quite a few surprises to start the new campaign.

The Texans have lost five in a row after beating Jacksonville in Week 1. The Texans have played three Overs and three Unders to this point. The Bucs have done what they’ve needed to do to win, but haven’t covered many numbers to this point. The Jets are off of the bye, so we’ll see if Robert Saleh and the coaching staff have been able to improve the punchless offense.

Baltimore held the Titans to just 106 yards of offense and nearly broke the NFL record for most sacks in a single game. The Ravens sacked Tennessee quarterback Marcus Mariota 11 times. That kind of pressure could surely knock Saints QB Drew Brees off his game. Chicago has the NFL’s fourth-best scoring defense giving up just 19.2 points per game.

But KC rallied in the second half, outscoring the WFT 21-0, to secure a huge win. Tennessee fought hard to get the victory over the Buffalo Bills. But since the Chiefs allow 133.2 rushing yards per, and the Titans have Derrick Henry, taking the points makes sense. Early bettors seized on the Chiefs as a 4-point road favorite, and this number crept up in early wagering. Covered the number for just the second time this season with its win as 6.5-point chalk Sunday at Washington. Green Bay was offered at -7.5 in look-ahead lines last week, but Sunday’s fresh number of +10 drew some Washington interest.

The Steelers dropped their third straight game, a loss to Green Bay. Pittsburgh hasn’t topped 20 points since its opener and has five turnovers in the past three weeks. With two strong defenses matched up against a pair of struggling offenses, the point total could be the best play here. The Steelers and Broncos have each hit the under in all four of their games. But for spread purposes, Pittsburgh opened as marginal home favorites. The Vikings dropped to 1-3 following a 14-7 loss to the Browns.

Practice reports will dictate whether he can play through this, but he may have to if it’s minor. Fellow receiver Parris Campbell is expected to miss the remainder of the season with a foot injury that is suspected to be a Lisfranc fracture. T.Y. Hilton finally returned from his cervical neck fusion in August to catch four passes for 80 yards in Week 6. Unfortunately, his return did not last long as he left in the second quarter with a quadriceps strain. This is very likely an acclimation injury after not playing for two months. Read our full Week 7 Washington vs Packers betting picks & tips.

Carson Wentz averaged over 20 yards per completion against Houston last week, so Murray should be able to throw all over Houston. The Texans also allowed Jonathan Taylor to run for 10.4 yards per carry last week, so Chase Edmonds and James Conner could be set for massive games. I bet on the Eagles to cover against the Buccaneers last week, and they were frankly fortunate to do so. Tampa Bay built a 28-7 lead at one point, and I felt that there was no way the Eagles could force the backdoor cover.
