NFL Week 7 staff picks: Moneyline, spread, over/under predictions

It’s another week of football, so that means it’s another week of picks from your favorite group of football minds. Maybe that’s a step too far, but you’re here, you’re reading this, you must like us.

As we have done in past seasons, our staff will be making weekly predictions for every game on the NFL schedule. Each of the Pride of Detroit staff will pick the moneyline (winner of the game, no spread), but some of the members will also pick against the spread and even the over/under lines—there’s an easy-to-use toggle button in the widget below to cycle through the settings and in the week’s ahead, check out our records when it comes to making picks. You can also check out all of the odds for this week’s games courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook.

A theme has emerged for “Thursday Night Football” through five weeks now: divisional matchups. At 8:15 p.m. ET on Amazon Prime, the Pittsburgh Steelers head to the Queen’s City to take on the Cincinnati Bengals. Aaron Rodgers, 41, will meet Joe Flacco, 40, in what kids are calling “The Unc Bowl.”

Two teams are on bye this week, the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens, so the NFL has 12 games scheduled for Sunday. The International Series will kick things off once again over on NFL Network, this time from Wembley Stadium in London, England. At 9:30 a.m. ET, we’re getting a matchup worth tuning into as the Los Angeles Rams take on the Jacksonville Jaguars—London’s honorary NFL team.

After the morning football wraps up, the local Detroit audience will have a couple of options in the 1 p.m. slot. FOX will broadcast a matchup sure to earn the attention of Lions fans: the Philadelphia Eagles (4-2) square off against the Minnesota Vikings (3-2). Over on CBS, an AFC West showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs (3-3) and Las Vegas Raiders (2-4) takes center stage. In the late window, FOX will have the only offering for Michiganders when the Green Bay Packers (3-1-1) head to the desert for a matchup with the free-falling Arizona Cardinals (2-4) at 4:25 p.m. ET from State Farm Field in Glendale, Arizona.

“Sunday Night Football” rounds out yet another long day of football when two NFC opponents face off in Santa Clara: the Atlanta Falcons (3-2) take on the San Francisco 49ers (4-2) from Levi’s Stadium at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC.

ESPN/ABC is going to have two offerings of “Monday Night Football” for another week in a row. The first game kicks off at 7:00 p.m. ET when the hometown Detroit Lions (4-2) host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1) and leading MVP candidate Baker Mayfield on ABC/ESPN. The second offering starts at 10:00 p.m. ET when the Houston Texans (2-3) travel to the Pacific Northwest to face the Seattle Seahawks (4-2) on ESPN.

Here is who our staff is picking on the moneyline, spread, and over/under for all 15 games on the NFL Week 7 schedule:
