The Steelers gave themselves some cushion in the AFC North with last week’s home win over the Ravens. Despite failing to score a touchdown and getting a shaky performance from Russell Wilson, Pittsburgh kicked six field goals and eeked out an 18-16 win. The Browns’ bump provided by Jameis Winston proved to be brief, as they have been outscored by 38 points over their last two games. Cleveland’s offense is last in the NFL in yards per play and second to last in expected points added per play.

The first game of the week is a big one, as first place in the NFC East is on the line.

The Rams are coming off a victory over the Raiders in which they forced four turnovers, and the expectation is that wide receiver Cooper Kupp will play for the first time since suffering an injury in Week 2. So the vibes should be good in LA right now, no? Meh, not really. Los Angeles basically took advantage of Las Vegas’ ineptitude, as none of the Rams’ scoring drives were longer than 47 yards.

The main storyline in the first game of Week 7 is about Broncos head coach Sean Payton’s return to New Orleans to face the team he led for 15 seasons and won a Super Bowl with in 2009. Another storyline is about the Saints going from the NFL’s darlings after two weeks to a home underdog this week against a team with one of the league’s most inefficient offenses.
