Before going into my early picks for week 7, there have been some interesting trends this year. One thing I have been looking at all year is home underdogs that are getting between 2.5 and 3.5 points when I make the pick. The home underdog is 10-4 so far in this case. Also all four teams that had a bye in week 5 covered against the spread in week 6. So teams off the bye are 5-1 against the spread this season. Chicago, Jacksonville, Oakland and New Orleans were on bye in week 6.

Here is where I’m leaning towards in week 7 with Monday night lines:

Seahawks +7 @ 49ers

Leaning towards Seahawks

Tennessee +3 @ Bills

Cardinals +6 @ Vikings

Browns +3 @ Colts
