NFL Bettor’s Guide: Week 7 Picks, Point Spreads, and Over-Under Odds

Update 10/21: All the spreads are in! As are all my picks. Below.

After a couple of barely .500 weeks (8-6 and 7-6), I got back on track in Week 7 with a stellar 8-3-2 mark against the spread. Now that’s what I’m talking about.

I still have not had a week in which I wasn’t at least one game over .500, and I now have a 50-32-5 record on the year, good for a 57% win percentage overall. So hopefully you are checking out these picks on a weekly basis.

But, of course, six good weeks mean nothing. It’s all about the next week, which is why I’m diving right into Week 7. Let’s pick some winners.

NFL Viewer’s Guide: Week 7 TV Schedule, Announcer Assignments, Matchups, and Teams on Bye

There is no question what the most compelling game is on the Week 7 NFL schedule: the Sunday night matchup between the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings. Not only is this Episode #2 of Brett Favre returning to Green Bay in purple, but the Packers’ injuries and subsequent losing means that the Vikings are breathing down their necks for second place in the AFC North.

I don’t really think I need to hype this game up anyway.

There are some other interesting matchups too: Dallas-New York on Monday night, Tennessee-Philly, and Pittsburgh-Miami, all of which feature intriguing teams and have playoff implications.

NFL Week 9 Picks, Spreads, TV Schedule, and Announcer Lineup

Update: The NFL Week 17 TV schedule, point spreads, and picks post is up.

——————–

Mercy has finally come to Browns fans, as the team is on its bye!

Thus, there can be no Sunday massacre to dampen an otherwise pleasant weekend. And here’s the best part: Cleveland doesn’t play until next Monday night, which further prolongs the days between Browns beat-downs.

In between, there are some great games on the NFL Week 9 schedule for Browns fans, as well as Bills, Vikings, Jets, Raiders, and Rams fans, to distract themselves with, most notably the Sunday and Monday night games, both of which should be excellent and match up Dallas-Philadelphia and Denver-Pittsburgh.

We also get key divisional showdowns including Miami-New England, Houston-Indianapolis, and Baltimore-Cincinnati.

It should be another great weekend of NFL football. So, as we get ready for tonight’s Falcons-Saints Monday nighter, let’s take a look forward at the TV schedule, announcer lineups, point spreads and over-unders, and picks for NFL Week 9.
