NFL Predictions: Week 7's Winners and Losers

The Jacksonville Jaguars are riding high entering Week 7, bringing a 4-2 record into New Orleans for Thursday Night Football.

To keep track of how we see the NFL this year, we will be doing weekly win-loss predictions, tracking our progress as the year goes on.

Last week: 8-7

Season: 57-36 (64%)

Jaguars vs. Saints 

Winner: Jaguars

The Jaguars have a banged up quarterback, but the Saints' offense has been anemic and now has half of an offensive line. Jaguars are the better team.


Falcons vs. Buccaneers 

Winner: Buccaneers

The Falcons seem like such an odd team. The Buccaneers' defense should do enough to confuse Desmond Ridder ... I think.


Bills vs. Patriots

Winner: Bills

It is over for New England. I wonder if this is the week we see a quarterback benching.


Browns vs. Colts 

Winner: Browns

Jim Schwartz is going to do unspeakable things to Minshew Mania.


Lions vs. Ravens 

Winner: Lions

The Lions are rolling right now and I think they pick up a signature win on the road vs. a good, but inconsistent, Ravens team


Raiders vs. Bears 

Winner: Raiders

Respect to anyone who is using their hard-earned money or well-deserved free time watching this game. Raiders are better outside of the quarterback position and should win a sloppy game.


Commanders vs. Giants  

Winner: Giants

This feels like a game that could go either way, but Tyrod Taylor looked more competent behind this bad offensive line than Daniel Jones has all year.


Cardinals vs. Seahawks 

Winner: Seahawks

Geno Smith and the Seahawks bounce-back this week, I think. Two of the NFL's toughest to predict squads are in one game, though, so who knows.


Steelers vs. Rams 

Winner: Rams

Matthew Stafford is playing unreal football right now, and I think that continues against a Steelers team that can't keep up offensively. 


Packers vs. Broncos 

Winner: Packers 

The Packers are young, inexperienced, and just kind of meh right now. That is better than the bad football we are seeing out of Denver, though.


Chargers vs. Chiefs 

Winner: Chiefs

Justin Herbert wasn't very sharp on Monday night. Now, he will play one of the NFL's top defenses. 


Dolphins vs. Eagles 

Winner: Dolphins

I am worried about the Dolphins' offensive line holding up, but I think they can catch the Eagles on a bad week.


49ers vs. Vikings

Winner: 49ers

Brock Purdy looked perfectly average without two of the NFL's best skill players last week. I think the same could happen this week, but the Vikings aren't the Browns.


Winner:
