Week 7 of the NFL season is upon us, and as October comes to a close, teams are looking to make a push to stay in or join the early playoff race. The Texans are one of the teams in the latter category, having started 0-4 but now 2-4, and DeMeco Ryans’ team has a chance to make it three in a row on Sunday against the JJ McCarthy-led Giants. There are also crucial division matchups across the board, including the Ravens hosting the Bengals on Sunday and the Eagles hosting the Cowboys on “Monday Night Football” to close out the week.

Steelers at Saints (Paris)
Time: Sunday, 9:30 a.m. ET (NFL Network), stream on fubo (try free)
Open: Steelers -1.5, O/U 42.5
“Saints +3.5: The Steelers are impossible to understand. Week to week – even 50/50, as evidenced by last week’s overtime victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If you want to give me the hook at +3.5 in an international match, I’ll probably take it. The Saints are a perfect 8-0 ATS in their last eight road games and are 3-0 ATS all-time in international matches. I think Gayle Benson’s recent comments stirred up the locker room, and the Saints responded with a win in which they lost by 34 points – even if it was against the New York Giants. … Prediction: Steelers 23, Saints 20″
This is Jordan Dajani who explains why he is taking the Steelers to win in Paris this weekend. You can see all of his picks here.
Bengals vs. Ravens
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Ravens -3.5, O/U 52.5
“My guess is Lamar Jackson is back for this game. If he’s not, then you can change my pick to the Bengals. If Jackson is alongside Derrick Henry and Zay Flowers, I just don’t think this Baltimore offense can be stopped. When those three have shared the field this season, the Ravens are averaging 9.9 yards per play. NINE POINT NINE. Unfortunately, the sample size is only 63 plays due injuries to Jackson and Flowers at different times If there’s any team that can compete with an explosive offense, it’s probably the Bengals, but I don’t really see them following suit here.
Jared Dubin likes the Ravens in a high-scoring game in Baltimore. You can see all of Pete’s picks here.
Buccaneers at Panthers

Open: Panthers -1.5, O/U 45.5

Dolphins at Jets
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Jets -2.5, O/U 41.5
“Sure, the Jets burned us last week, but that shouldn’t mean we look at them any differently in Week 7, especially with a fantastic game against the winless Dolphins. New York was competitive with the Patriots last week, and that’s a team we’ve already backed multiple times in 2026.
“The offense is a concern, as they have the worst red zone efficiency (38%) in the NFL and rank 27th in points per game (18.7). However, I’m not sure how much that will matter against a Dolphins offense tied for the fewest points in the NFL (14.0). New York is allowing just 20.3 points per game this season, which is tied for seventh in the league. So, this might not be too much of a burden for Geno Smith and company to jump in front of the Dolphins and clear the number.”
Tyler Sullivan likes the Jets to win at home, 23-16, in an AFC East battle. To see all of Tyler’s picks, Click here.
Browns at Titans
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Titans -2.5, O/U 40.5
“The Browns are 4-2 after beating Baltimore last week, while the Titans beat the Colts last week. Neither team is doing much on offense, which suggests this will be a low-scoring game. I think the Browns have better defense, which will be the difference. They win again on a late field goal.
“Take: Browns 17, Titans 16″
Pete Prisco wants the Browns to improve to 5-2 with a low-scoring win in Nashville. To see Pete’s pick for each Week 7 game, click here.
Giants among the Texans
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (FOX), stream on fubo (try free)
Open: Texans -5.5, O/U 43.5
Still alive in your survivor pool? Congratulations! That means you may have taken RJ White’s advice last week and stayed away from the Rams and Colts, two of Circa Survivor’s three most popular options, by far. The Texans will be a popular pick for survivors this week, but should they be yours? RJ White reviews his favorite picks on SportsLine.
49ers at the Falcons
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (FOX), stream on fubo (try free)
Open: 49ers -4.5, O/U 47.5
“The Week 8 bye can’t come soon enough for San Francisco, which, while undefeated, is dealing with a series of injuries, particularly at wide receiver. On a short week, across the country and against a team trying to avoid a home loss for the third straight week, I have a sneaky feeling about this one. The Falcons’ offensive weapons, Bijan Robinson, Drake London and Kyle Pitts, show up in Week 7. The start San Francisco’s invincibility is coming to an end.
Betting expert Eric Cohen likes a 27-24 Atlanta upset as part of his full Week 7 score predictions, which you can read by heading over to SportsLine.
Colts at Vikings
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Vikings -3, O/U 47.5
“This season, Minnesota leads the NFL in blitz rate with a blistering 69.8%. Jones has largely controlled the blitz this season, with his air yards per attempt dropping to 5.2 against the blitz compared to 9.5 without him. In my opinion, that just means even less threat to explosive plays on the Colts’ side, which helps keep things in check. The Vikings defense, which will be well rested after the bye, is No. 1 in the NFL This is a nightmare game for the Colts offense, which is averaging just 4.7 yards per play.
“In the meantime, I’m encouraged by Kyler Murray because he’s coming off his best performance of the season. So far, his passer rating and yards per attempt have improved in every game this season. With the rest and home field advantage, Minnesota should leave Indy in the dust.”
Tyler Sullivan is backing the Vikings to remain undefeated, and you can read all her picks here.
Broncos at the Cardinals
Time: Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Broncos -7.5, O/U 43.5
Before you make your picks this week, you NEED to see what SportsLine expert Josh Nagel thinks. Josh went 5-1 in his 6-point teaser last week, and he’s back this week to include the Broncos in his quest to go 6-0. To see his full list of picks, head to SportsLine.
Lions Packers
Time: Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX), stream on fubo (try free)
Open: Lions -1.5, O/U 50.5
“At some point over the last month, something clicked with Matthew Golden, as he’s been one of the best receivers in the NFL over the last four weeks. He’s gone over 100 receiving yards in three of his last four games, which is pretty crazy considering he didn’t go over 90 yards ONCE as a rookie last season.
“With Golden and Christian Watson, the Packers now have a legitimate duo and they have it just in time to take on a Lions defense that has allowed more passing yards this year than any other team. Bryce Young has thrown for 329 yards against this defense. GENO SMITH has thrown for 321. Jordan Love could throw for 400.”
John Breech loves the Packers and their high-flying offense, and you can see all his choices here.
Rams at Raiders
Time: Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX), stream on fubo (try free)
Open: Rams -7.5, O/U 46.5
“This is a must win for both teams, as they are on losing streaks. The Rams have a lot of injury issues, which have really affected their team. They still have Matt Stafford. He can light up a defense, which he will do here. But the Rams will give up big plays to the Raiders, who are trailing. Take: Rams 28, Raiders 27“
