🔍 Notable Matchups & Things to Watch
Here are some of the games that carry extra intrigue, where storylines, momentum, or matchup quirks could decide things:
Los Angeles Rams @ Jacksonville Jaguars (London, Wembley)
-
International games always bring an extra layer — travel, atmosphere, and sometimes surprising outcomes. The Rams will want to show they can handle the spotlight away from home, while Jacksonville has performed well in London before. This one could hinge on each team’s ability to handle early momentum swings.
Las Vegas Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs
-
AFC West rivalry, and Kansas City will look to defend home field while trying to build consistency. The Raiders, meanwhile, may be underdog hunters in this one. Expect plenty of offensive fireworks but also keen defensive adjustments, especially in the trenches.
Philadelphia Eagles @ Minnesota Vikings
-
Undefeated teams usually draw attention, especially when they’re offensive powerhouses (as the Eagles are) facing off with a team like Minnesota which can be dangerous at home. Also, game flow & turnover margins will matter; the Vikings have shown flashes this year where they can dominate if their stars are locked in.
New Orleans Saints @ Chicago Bears
-
For the Saints, this is a chance to turn things around after a rough start. Chicago stays hungry for a win and has shown some defensive strength. This matchup could swing on which team gets more production out of their run game and how well their offensive line holds up. Also has potential value from betting odds, given line movement based on injuries and previous performances.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Detroit Lions (Monday Night)
-
Prime time brings pressure, and this game might be one of the more eye-catching to close out Week 7. Detroit could be in position to assert dominance in the NFC, while Tampa Bay will want to show they belong among that upper tier. Expect big plays, and a lot of attention paid to quarterback performance and clutch situation execution.
