The games will be intense this weekend as teams battle for playoff games that are quickly approaching. Where does your team stand going into week 7?

NFL Week 7 is here! The stakes are high as teams battle towards playoff games that are quickly approaching. Our Vikings will be travelling to Philadelphia to battle the Eagles and their emerging rookie quarterback Carson Wentz.

Some other intriguing matchups include the Patriots at Steelers and Seahawks at Cardinals. Ben Roethlisberger is out, leaving us with Tom Brady vs. Landry Jones. Remember though, Landry Jones beat the Cardinals last year. Just keep that in mind. In terms of the Seahawks-Cardinals game, this could go either way. If the Seahawks win the Cardinals are going to be in a very difficult position at 3-4. If the Cardinals win, the NFC West is going to be a dogfight.

Enough about the games, let’s get to the rankings!
