NFL Week 7 Betting Leans

Again, just to reiterate: As of Friday afternoon, these are games that I have not bet. I am simply sharing some of my notes that may, perhaps, assist in your handicapping as you break down the NFL Week 7 card.

Kansas City Chiefs -4.5 at Tennessee Titans – Not a bad spot from a situational standpoint, but you can’t feel good about backing Kansas City until they issue some kind of buy sign. That certainly has not appeared yet.

Miami Dolphins +2.5 vs Atlanta Falcons – Miami was the luckiest team in the NFL last season and the regression to the norm has been brutal. I have the Dolphins a winner on the projections, but I can’t pull the trigger, particularly against a rested Falcons squad.

San Francisco 49ers -4 vs Indianapolis Colts – This was probably my closest call in terms of almost making the card. I would have played San Francisco at -3, but disciplined approach keeps me off at -4.
