Fearless Rick & Coin Flip NFL Week 7 Late Games

All times Eastern

New York Giants at Denver Broncos (-7, 40.5) 4:05 pm - The Giants are just 2-4, but those two wins have been in the last three weeks, after Jaxson Dart took over at QB from Russell Wilson. But, they’ve also come at home. The one loss with Dart behind center was in New Orleans.

After whipping the Eagles last week, 34-17, one has to wonder how good the Giants actually are. Also, Denver hasn’t been lights out this season. Bo Nix seems a little less daring, but the defense is still solid. Denver also beat the Eagles, but last week’s 13-11 win over the Jets in England was hardly impressive. Jet lag? Giants can cover, maybe win.

Coin Flip: Denver

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Broncos 21 Giants 17


Indianapolis Colts at Los Angeles Chargers (-1.5, 48.5) 4:05 pm - One of the better games of the week, with the 5-1 Colts visiting the 4-2 Chargers, both vying for first place in their divisions.

The Chargers come in off a marginal, 29-27, win at Miami and two losses prior to that. Indy comes in with a two-game win streak and a high-flying offense (32.3 mpg, leads league).

Coin Flip: Los Angeles Chargers

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Colts 36 Chargers 31


Green Bay Packers (-7, 45) at Arizona Cardinals 4:25 pm - Pretty simple. You cannot lose to Tennessee and be considered legitimate. The Cardinals have lost four in a row and another loss sends them deeper behind in the competitive NFC West.

Green Bay came off their bye with a 27-18 win over the Bengals last week and should be well-prepared for this.

Coin Flip: Arizona

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Packers 27 Cardinals 13



Washington Commanders at Dallas Cowboys (-1, 54.5) 4:25 pm - The Commanders can only blame themselves for last week’s 25-24 loss to the Bears and should rebound with a better effort if they don’t think about KC next week.

Dallas, 2-3-1, has won just two games, one over the Giants in OT and the other over the Jets in New York. Not very impressive.

Coin Flip: Dallas

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Commanders 30 Cowboys 24


Atlanta Falcons at San Francisco 49ers (-1.5, 47) 8:20 pm - Following a Week 5 bye, the Falcons got down to business last week with a 24-14 upset of the Bills, and appear to start putting together some wins. At 3-2, they’re in good shape with a solid defense and a great ground game with Bijan Robinson.

Mac Jones remains the QB for SF, and they may be in trouble after a poor showing in a 30-19 loss at Tampa Bay last week.

Coin Flip: San Francisco

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Falcons 26 49ers 20


Monday, October 20

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Detroit Lions (-6, 52.5) 7:00 pm - This should be a toss-up game. The Bucs lost a playoff game to the Lions in 2023, 31-23, but beat them, 20-16, in Week 2 of last season, both game in Detroit.

Tampa Bay is 5-1, and taking no prisoners. If they don’t win outright, the winning margin is likely to be razor thin. Should be a shootout, so the over looks promising.

Coin Flip: Tampa Bay

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Buccaneers 34 Lions 31


Houston Texans at Seattle Seahawks (-3, 41) 10:00 pm - 2-3 Houston has been under-performing this season. After an 0-3 start, they’ve won two straight, over Tennessee and Baltimore, which isn’t saying much. Even so, the defensive effort in both games was solid.

Seattle has lived up to expectations at 4-2, their only losses a 17-13 setback in Week 1 to the 49ers and a 38-35 defeat at home to Tampa Bay. While Monday’s early game looks to go over, this looks like a defensive struggle brewing.

Coin Flip: Seattle

Fearless Rick’s Pick: Texans 20 Seahawks 13
