We’re quickly approaching the midway point of the NFL season and everything is gearing up. The two divisions that feel fairly stacked are the AFC West and NFC West. There’s no shadow of the rest of the teams trying to push up, but the Chiefs and 49ers feel like they’re in a class of their own right now.
This week gives us some fascinating games. We have the Bears vs. Patriots on Thursday night, a game that looks like a Chicago win on paper — but New England has found form recently and could easily make this a shootout. Meanwhile, it’s not true, but one of the most controversial games on the panel this week is Rams vs. It’s Raiders. That’s a testament to how much the Raiders have grown this offseason, and also how far the Rams have fallen off the preseason hype train.
Here are our picks for Week 7 in the NFL.
