NFL Week 7 picks and predictions
Lorenzo Reyes is 13-6 so far on the season, and is back with his best bets for NFL Week 7 games.
The Week 7 finale will take place in the desert with the Arizona Cardinals (2-4) hosting the Los Angeles Chargers (3-2) in a special ESPN+ edition of “Monday Night Football.”
Even against a tough defense, the Chargers opened up with a strong start against the Denver Broncos to snap a two-game losing skid. The offense has steadily grown in the first month of the season, but the defense is proving to be among the toughest in the league.
All sorts of things went wrong when Arizona took a visit to Lambeau Field; the Cardinals were dominated in every facet against the Packers. It was a disappointment considering they were coming off a major win against the 49ers, but Arizona can add another big win with a primetime appearance.

FEELING LUCKY? Here are the best parlay bets and odds for NFL games this week
Saints vs. Broncos | Jaguars vs. Patriots | Falcons vs. Seahawks | Bills vs. Titans | Browns vs. Bengals | Packers vs. Texans | Colts vs. Dolphins | Vikings vs. Lions | Giants vs. Eagles | Rams vs. Raiders | Commanders vs. Panthers | 49ers vs. Chiefs | Steelers vs. Jets | Buccaneers vs. Ravens | Cardinals vs. Chargers
This is a terrible matchup for the Cardinals, who struggle to stop the rush. Not only that, the Chargers have the NFL’s top-scoring defense, and Arizona is likely to be without Marvin Harrison Jr. This line feels like it should be far higher. I love L.A. in this spot.
Both these teams have top-10 rushing offenses. But the Chargers also have a top-10 defense and rank No. 1 in scoring defense. The Chargers have the personnel to be the more dominant team in the trenches. Justin Herbert is coming off his first 200-yard passing game under coach Jim Harbaugh.
Especially if Marvin Harrison Jr. returns from his concussion, a Cardinals upset could be in the cards on Monday Night Football.
Los Angeles has shown it doesn’t mind playing − and winning − ugly games. The Chargers defense gives Kyler Murray another tough week to move to 4-2.
