It’s Week 7! Last week, our writers and editors started out cold when we all picked the Seahawks on Thursday night, but the Broncos won. We closed out the week on a better note, with all of us picking the 49ers to defeat the Commanders as they narrowly held on to the win.
This week’s slate of games begins with an exciting matchup between the Patriots and Bears on Thursday night, featuring two of the league’s best young quarterbacks in Drake Maye and Caleb Williams. While Maye has rebounded from an inconsistent start to the season, the majority of our writers and editors see the Bears winning at home in Williams’s second game back from a hamstring injury.
