Top Week 7 NFL predictions

We can tell you one of the model's strongest Week 7 NFL picks for the best betting apps is that the Jets (-4.5, 38.5) cover at home versus the Dolphins in a 1 p.m. ET kickoff. New York's four spread victories are just one off the league-high of five, while Miam's one ATS win is tied for the second fewest in the NFL. The Jets have a defense ranked among the top seven in points allowed, passing defense and redzone scoring, plus the offense got a big boost with the return of first round wideout Omar Cooper, who had a 6-103-1 stat line on Sunday. Miami is coming off a bye, but the Dolphins are also 0-3 ATS over their last three games with a rest advantage, as the Jets are forecasted to cover over 60% of the time in an A-rated pick. See which other teams to pick here.

Another one of its Week 7 NFL predictions: the Broncos (-4.5, 43.5) cover at the Cardinals in well over 50% of simulations. Denver's outright and spread results mirror each other with a 4-2 record, including covering in both games as a favorite. The Cardinals are 0-2 versus the line at home this season and an eye-popping 1-9 ATS at home since the start of 2025. Arizona is one of two teams ranking in the bottom 10 in both scoring offense and scoring defense, alongside Miami, while Denver boasts top-5 rankings in both takeaways and turnover differential. In addition to Denver covering, the Under hits over 50% of the time. See which other teams to pick here.

How to make Week 7 NFL picks
