The 2025 NFL schedule is in full swing. With the NFL Week 7 schedule kicking off Thursday and continuing with more football games on Sunday and Monday, we have a lot to look forward to. This week, there are 15 NFL matchups to preview, featuring 30 teams in action.
Below, we dive into one bold prediction for each game on the Week 7 NFL schedule.
Even though he’s still learning the offense and building better chemistry with his receivers, Joe Flacco showed he can help this team move the chain. Last week was a step in the right direction, but we expect the former Super Bowl winner to be much more polished now that he’s had more time on task. The Steelers already know what to expect from Flacco, but that doesn’t mean they’ll be able to stop weaponized versions of Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins too.
The Rams have a top-five defense, but the Jaguars look like a completely different team under first-year head coach Liam Coen. Trevor Lawrence is playing with confidence and Travis Etienne has been hard to slow down. Only one team is forcing more turnovers than Jacksonville this year, and if they can repeat that success against LA, things could get surprisingly ugly.
How ironic would this be? Jalen Hurts was drafted in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft, and eventually replaced former No. 2 overall pick Carson Wentz as the Eagles’ starting quarterback. Now, the two square off again, and Hurts isn’t exactly playing his best. How comical would it be to see the man Hurts replaced get his revenge?
The Bears have won three games in a row, but the last two have been by just one point. Meanwhile, the Saints have played much better over the past three weeks, giving the Bills fits, beating the Giants, and losing to a much-improved Patriots team by just six points. However, New Orleans could make a huge statement with a big win over a hot Chicago team.
No, Shedeur Sanders is not the Browns’ starting quarterback, but after Dillon Gabriel’s ugly start last week, it may not be long before he gets to make his NFL debut. We’ll even predict it happens this week, when Gabriel starts to struggle again. If Sanders can lead the Browns to victory over the Dolphins, he might just be able to run away with the starting job.
The Titans felt they had to make a change after Brian Callahan led them to just a 4-19 record over the past two seasons. Now Cam Ward feels he’ll be able to cut it loose. If so, we should see a different version of the No....
