FANTASY FOOTBALL WEEK 7 PREDICTIONS By Muntradamus MVP NATION. We were right there. Another Qualifier seat just out of our grasp, lets BEAST again. Rankings + Stats + DFS Rosters coming Saturday. TITANS @ BROWNS WHEN TITANS HAVE THE BALL Mariota should have time to find his weapons. McCourty will be on Matthews but Decker should have a nice matchup. Regardless the Titans are a run first team and if both Murray and Henry are healthy, those guys are getting all the carries and that will be the road game plan. WHEN BROWNS HAVE THE BALL Kizer is going to have trouble doing anything. Titans Run D is strong, Kizer will have to throw, but his targets do not present good matchups. Sloppy Browns Football is in the making. TITANS 24 BROWNS 13 -- TB @ BUF WHEN BUCS HAVE THE BALL Doug Martin is not going to have the dream matchup his owners want him to have. Winston has to throw jump balls to Evans and find D-Jax in space. Brate has to block. Passing game will have moments, but it will also not be at full strength with full potential. WHEN BILLS HAVE THE BALL The Bucs Run D continues to not look impressive. Lesean McCoy is yearning for that breakout game and while this matchup does not seem likely to have it, this is a good week it can happen for him. Short passing game for Tyrod should be there as well. BUCS 23 BILLS 20 -- JAGS @ COLTS WHEN JAGS HAVE THE BALL Fournette is far less than 100%. Chris Ivory will have to be the bull dog and carry this team. He is capable as the Colts run defense is not known for dominating games. Bortles has not looked amazing but he is not looking bad either. WHEN COLTS HAVE THE BALL Pressure will be coming all game, usually teams do not want to even test their secondary but the Colts have a lot of confidence in Jacoby. Jags will bring pressure, Jacoby will turn it over. JAGS 20 COLTS 13 -- RAVENS @ VIKINGS WHEN RAVENS HAVE THE BALL Throwing is not an option. Running is not either. Flacco and the Ravens will be lucky to get in the red zone all game, not going to be a good day to be a Ravens fan. WHEN VIKINGS HAVE THE BALL Adam T and Rudolph are the targets right now with Diggs out, but this matchup is not good on paper. McKinnon could get his head ripped off, Latavius will have to be very physical. In the end, count this as a punt fest. RAVENS 10 VIKINGS 13 -- CARDINALS @ RAMS WHEN CARDINALS HAVE THE BALL Adrian Peterson will continue to pound and Carson Palmer should be able to attack in London. Rams Defense and mentality does not seem ready, while the Cards are seasoned vets and looking forward to this big experience. WHEN RAMS HAVE THE BALL Jared Goff will be tossed like a College QB, Todd Gurley will not have a lot of running room all game, Rams are going nowhere against a Cardinals Defense that is feeling strong and motivated to tear apat Goff. CARDINALS 27 RAMS 13 -- SAINTS @ PACKERS WHEN SAINTS HAVE THE BALL Where to start. They can tear up that secondary at any moment, Ingram and Kamara can gash the Packers whenever they want. Saints are going to be a hot oiled machine. WHEN PACKERS HAVE THE BALL Hundley will get a lot of garbage time and the Packers still have all their weapons. Nothing will come easy, but a lot of opportunities against Prevent Defense will help. SAINTS 34 PACKERS 20 -- PANTHERS @ BEARS WHEN PANTHERS HAVE THE BALL Ground and pound, Bears Defense is not strong enough to stop the run all game. Throwing the ball will be tough for Cam on the road especially if Benjamin is OUT or less than 100%. WHEN BEARS HAVE THE BALL While passing could be the way to victory, Jordan Howard is a tank and they may see if he can defeat the Panthers by himself. Captain Luke is out which leaves a big hole, Jordan Howard will try to expose it. PANTHERS 14 BEARS 17 -- NYJ @ MIAMI WHEN JETS HAVE THE BALL Dolphins Defense is playing at another level, a level the Jets offense will not be able to do much. ASJ will have to block and the WRs are not that talented where McCown can have a strong day in the air. WHEN DOLPHINS HAVE THE BALL Jay Ajayi time after time after time. Jets Run D is good, but how long can it hold? Expect the Dolphins to pound as long as they can and play conservative with Jarvis Landry. JETS 16 DOLPHINS 20 -- DENVER @ LA CHARGERS WHEN BRONCOS HAVE THE BALL The pass rush will come fast for Siemian who has to throw fast. No Emmanuel Sanders hurts, Bennie Fowler will have to step up with Demaryius. Broncos Run game can have some success but the Chargers are playing with a lot of passion after winning 2 straight on the road. WHEN CHARGERS HAVE THE BALL Melvin Gordon ground and pound. Chargers have so many weapons in the passing game, the Broncos will not know who to guard. Mike Williams addition makes this team very dynamic. Melvin will be the center piece. BRONCOS 17 CHARGERS 23 -- SEAHAWKS @ GIANTS WHEN SEAHAWKS HAVE THE BALL Russell Wilson will be running for his life. The run game will also likely have trouble making big things happen. Jimmy Graham will likely have to be the go-to option as Baldwin will have Janoris Jenkins on him. WHEN GIANTS HAVE THE BALL Passing the ball to anyone besides Engram seems out of the question. Shepard is out and all the WRs have terrible matchups. Engram's is not great either and that Seahawks Defense can ruin the Giants O-Line. SEAHAWKS 13 GIANTS 10 -- BENGALS @ STEELERS WHEN BENGALS HAVE THE BALL We can expect the Steelers D to play fast and hungry. Run game might not be that succesful, Dalton to Green has to be the combo. WHEN STEELERS HAVE THE BALL Le'Veon will continue to touch the ball as much as he can while Big Ben looks for Antonio. JuJu and Bryant really canceling eachother out. Bengals defense is a bit overrated. BENGALS 17 STEELERS 24 -- COWBOYS @ 49ERS WHEN COWBOYS HAVE THE BALL Dak should be able to move the ball at will. Zeke will ground and pound, Dez will be open nobody on SF can stop him. Witten + all of Dak's weapons should be able to do their thing. WHEN 49ers HAVE THE BALL Carlos Hyde running the ball and whoever they have at QB throwing short passes is the game plan. Garcon should be tough to stop and the 49ers definitely look his way all the time, Kittle and Goodwin splitting the rest of the work. COWBOYS 30 49ers 17 -- FALCONS @ PATRIOTS WHEN FALCONS HAVE THE BALL Running the ball on the road is key. Coleman and Freeman can control the game. Julio will have Malcolm Butler and Julio would love that breakout game. WHEN PATRIOTS HAVE THE BALL Brady at home on SNF against the team he tore up in the Superbowl. He will be ready to tear them up again Patriots have too many weapons. PATRIOTS 30 FALCONS 27 -- REDSKINS @ EAGLES WHEN SKINS HAVE THE BALL Eagles Pass Rush will force Cousins in shotgun and Cousins will have to make quick throws to all of his weapons. Eagles cannot stop them all, but that pass rush can get their quickly and make some game chaning plays. WHEN EAGLES HAVE THE BALL Redskins Defense has holes, Carson Wentz should be able to find those holes and hit all of his weapons. Wentz is a great game manager and at home he can put that on display while driving the ball methodically down the field. REDSKINS 21 EAGLES 27
