2020 NFL Predictions Week 7 (Part IV)

 Welcome to TImerssports

NFL Predictions Week 7 (Part IV) - 

49ers at Pats - 

The Pats were disappointing in week 6 vs the Broncos and now will have to deal with a 49ers team coming off a big win vs the Rams. The 49ers are super banged up, but they domianted the Rams and really held them in check for most of the game. Long as Jimmy G is healthy, I think this 49ers will have a good shot vs anyone. Interesting enough, it wasn't too long ago that the Pats decided to trade Jimmy G to the 49ers. They can thank the Pats for him and who knows which QB they would have if they didn't trade for him!

The Pats haven't been bad this season, but they haven't been great, either. At times, this offense can put points in a hurry. But I don't believe it a contender in the AFC. I think the defense is weaker than it has been in the past and I don't think they are the same offense that it was with Brady. No disrespect to Cam, but this is not the style of offense that Bill is use to running. It will take awhile for them and Bill to get use to it.

Prediction - Hard to say how this one will go. I feel like 49ers are the better team here, but they are still pretyt banged up. I would go with the Pats at home vs a banged up 49ers team. But I also don't have a lot of faith in the Pats. I also believe the 49ers are more than capable of beating the Pats with a healthy Jimmy G. I am going with 49ers in this one.  

Seahawks at Cardinals - 

The Seahawks were bigger winners in week 6 and they were on the bye. As the Bucs defeated the Packers and they offically makes them the only NFC team with a undefeated record. With that said, I think they will suffer some losses in the division this season. It won't be a lot, but the NFC West is always tough to consistently win in. I am sure a loss or two will happen. But I still believe that the Seahawks are the best team in the NFC, even though the Bucs are starting to make a case. I am very concerned with how many injuries this Seahwaks team have and how they played vs a bad Vikings team in week 5. 

Cardinals are coming off a big win vs a 2-4 Cowboys team and will look to keep things rolling with the Seahawks. I think the Cardinals' offense matchups up really well vs the Seahawks. I think the Cardinals will have a shot to win this game, if they stop the Seattle Seahawks from taking a bunch deep shots downfield. However, I don't think they will win, if they have to go shot for shot with them.

Prediction - I am going with the Seahawks in this one because I think it comes down to can the Cardinals stop Russell Wilson and I really don't believe that they can!

Bears at Rams - 

The Bears are now in first place in the NFC North and will look to get another win vs the Rams. The Rams are coming off a tough loss to the 49ers and i was kinda surprised that they dropped that game. That game was controlled by the 49ers' defense and that could be a problem again this week vs a really good Bears' defense. I think the Rams need to find ways to pass the ball down field, because I don't a lot of run plays will be the answers vs the Bears. 

While I think the Bears have one of the leagues' best defense, I think this offense is not anything special. I believe they can beat most opponents with Nick Foles. I do think there are some teams that he won't be good enough. Unless, the offense can step up and become better. Under Nick Foles, I believe they can! I also believe this offense would be a lot better, if they would run the ball more. However, I am not super high on any of their current running backs. 

Prediction - I really want to say the Rams in this one because I don't think the Bears are a powerhouse offense. But that Bears' defense is scary good and will cause problems for the Rams. As I said before, the defense is what wins you championships in this league. So I give a slight advantage to the Bears in this one on Monday night Football!
