Week 7 NFL Picks: Predictions for Sunday's Games, Odds Guide and Over/Under Tips

The crowds are expecting blowouts with a lot of line movement over the last few days heading into Week 7 of the NFL season.

According to Odds Shark, five different favorites have seen their point spread grow by more than a point in most books compared to the opening. Two different lines have shrunk in that same span. The public isn't always right, but it seems like some of these initial spreads might have been a bit off, and now people are taking advantage.

The over/under lines have been slightly more steady, but there are still some good bets to be made for those looking to pick the totals. Here is a look at predictions for the entire week and a breakdown of the best over/under picks.

Buffalo Bills	30-21	Jacksonville Jaguars	BUF -4.5	Over 41

Top Over/Under Picks

Buffalo Bills at Jacksonville Jaguars (Over 41)

The NFL is trying to branch out by bringing the NFL to London, but this isn't a game that will excite many people. While the Buffalo Bills have played well this year, they will be without many of their best players, per Tyler Dunne of the Buffalo News:

Despite these absences, the Bills still have a chance to score points with EJ Manuel at the helm. Last week, the former first-round quarterback passed for 263 yards and a touchdown to go with a rushing touchdown, helping his team score 21 points against an excellent Cincinnati Bengals defense. 

"We have full confidence in EJ and we love the skill set," offensive coordinator Greg Roman said, via Marc Sessler of NFL.com. "He's doing really good in his preparation. I really think he's growing as a professional in how he prepares week to week and I think that will really serve him well moving forward."

With LeSean McCoy also apparently back to full strength, this offense still has the ability to score, especially against a Jacksonville Jaguars squad ranked 30th in the NFL with 29.3 points allowed per game.

Meanwhile, the Jaguars offense has actually been surprisingly exciting behind Blake Bortles. The second-year quarterback continues to throw touchdown passes to Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns, while the return of Julius Thomas creates yet another weapon.

This might not be a well-played game from start to finish, but there will likely be plenty of points.

Oakland Raiders at San Diego Chargers (Under 47)

Derek Carr has led an exciting passing attack this season, with Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree adding a dimension not available last year. The problem is, this isn't the best matchup for any of them against a talented San Diego Chargers secondary.

Safety Eric Weddle and cornerback Jason Verrett have led a unit that ranks seventh in the league with 221 passing yards allowed per game. Aaron Rodgers was solid last week, but even he could manage only 255 passing yards against this defense.

While the run defense has had its holes, Latavius Murray has been too inconsistent to trust going into this game.

On the other side, Philip Rivers has tried doing everything but is still coming up short:

Oakland has a quality front seven that will keep the Chargers' rushing attack silent. Rivers could have a field day once again, but he won't have enough help to sustain drives and get into the end zone.

Despite one of the higher totals of the week, this matchup should stay relatively low-scoring.

Cleveland Browns at St. Louis Rams (Over 42)

Josh McCown made some bad mistakes in Week 6, but he still helped his team score 23 points against an elite Denver Broncos defense. With a now-three-headed monster in the backfield between Isaiah Crowell, Duke Johnson and Robert Turbin, the Browns will have a lot of options to try to get points against another tough defense.

The St. Louis Rams certainly don't have any sort of balance offensively, although they have one guy in Todd Gurley who could have a huge game. Jason McIntyre of the Big Lead made his predictions for Gurley:

He might get overworked in his young career, but Gurley is certainly a talented runner who has a combined 305 rushing yards over his past two games. Matching him up against the NFL's worst run defense is almost not fair.

Even if the Browns put all their effort into stopping him, a lack of tackling ability will allow Gurley to break a few big runs.

Neither of these teams will remind fans of the New England Patriots offensively, but the combination of these two offenses could lead to an easy clearance of a low over/under total.
