Week 7 NFL Predictions

My week seven NFL predictions are the following:

The Oakland Raiders will be facing the Denver Broncos and it should be a close one with Oakland's star running back, Darren McFadden coming back for the Oakland squad. While this will help them immensely, the Denver Broncos should overpower them on both sides of the ball so, this should be a fun game to watch. Final Score Denver 31, Oakland 21.

Next up: The Minnesota Vikings against the Greenbay Packers.

The Vikings offense is a high powered one with Randy Moss, Adrian Peterson, and a future hall of fame quarterback in Brett Favre. However, Brett Favre has been less than spectacular through these first six weeks so, don't expect him to throw for five touchdowns and 300 yards. What I do expect from him is to have a mediocre game at best against a tough Packers D. But Adrian Peterson should have a big game considering that Randy Moss is clearing some space for Adrian to run, but don't count out the Packers' Aaron Rodgers and Greg Jennings who seem to have found the connection that they shared in '09. Note that through the first five weeks Greg Jennings has been a non-factor until just this past week when he had his first game. Final score Minnesota 27, Greenbay 24.

Finally: The Carolina Panthers against the San Fransisco 49'ers.

The Carolina Panthers do not have a win at all this season and are hoping to finally get it as they face the 49'ers. The Carolina Panthers offense is currently in shambles and they need to figure it out. They have two quality backs in Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams but it's obvious neither back can get into their  groove and that's not even their biggest concern. The Panther's biggest concern currently is the quarterback position. The Panthers have an unproven starter in Matt Moore and they need to figure it out quickly. Meanwhile, the 49'ers are possibly in an even bigger mess but they have an overall better team on offense and defense. Look for this game to be a low scoring game. Final score 49'ers 21, Panthers 14.

Upset Alert
Watch for the Seattle Seahawks to come out strong against Arizona with Russel Okung back to full strength and Marshawn Lynch looking strong playing at a pro bowl level. These are all the ingredients they need for a possible playoff run. Final Score Seattle 42, Arizona 28.
