NFL Schedule Week 7- BYE Week

 

The NFL regular season has begun, and we are about to enter week 7 of the league. This means that the fantasy managers will now go to any extent to gain an advantage over their competitors. Different players take it differently. Some pay close attention to the entire schedule while others focus on one single detail- the Bye Week. 

 

Bye Week is the week off that every team gets during the course of the season. During this time, certain teams are not required to play the game. Every team gets one bye week in between the 4th and 12th week of the league. Usually, four or fewer teams are on a bye week at once; however, NFL Schedule Week 7 is an exception. Week 7 will have six teams on a bye week. Here are the six teams: 

 

- Buffalo Bills

- Dallas Cowboys

- Jacksonville Jaguars

- Los Angeles Chargers

- Minnesota Vikings

- Pittsburgh Steelers

 

Houston Texans vs. Arizona Cardinals

 

The matchup between Houston Texans and Arizona Cardinals will be one of the most exciting games of the NFL regular season. If the Cardinals conduct themselves properly, this might be the most predictable game in their entire schedule. Also, with a stretch of games coming up for Houston, the situation isn't going to get any easier. When it comes to matches, Arizona's offense is a daunting task for any team. If Houston is not able to generate a pass rush, they might find themselves in a pickle. By looking at the past matches, it is predicted that Houston will try its level best to beat teams by keeping possession and playing bend-but-not-break defense. This will make it interesting to watch both the teams go against each other during NFL Schedule Week 7.

 

Atlanta Falcons vs. Miami Dolphins

 

The Falcons have had a bye week, which provided them with a time of two weeks for preparing to face the Miami Dolphins. Earlier it was looking like a great matchup for Miami’s defense; however, with the coming off a bye week, the team has taken an alarming step back. It seems like Atlanta will have an offense loaded to beat the Dolphins. Irrespective of the bye week advantage of Atlanta Falcons, the additions of Jaylen Waddle and Will Fuller to work alongside young Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will create a dynamic offense. The type of defense these players have is something that Atlanta’s team might struggle with. This riveting competition brings up the question of who will take the lead and win between the two. 

 

Conclusion

NFL Schedule Week 7 is packed with some huge matches for each team in the league. Six weeks of the regular season are almost done, and now it is entering into a crucial stage. The entire seventh week will definitely be full of fun and excitement. Pin this article and keep track of all the matchups.
