NFL Picks Week 7: Broncos and Struggling Teams That Will Emerge Victorious

The best cure for a team that doesn't win a lot is to, well, win.

The Denver Broncos haven't exactly put a forgettable 2010 behind them, starting this season 1-4. Their defense is giving up 28.0 points per game, second-worst in the league, and they've already replaced veteran quarterback Kyle Orton with Tim Tebow.

But they are one of a handful of struggling teams that will emerge victorious in Week 7 of the NFL season.

3. Cleveland Browns (2-3)

The Cleveland Browns have lost their last two games, and the Seattle Seahawks just defeated the Giants in New York.

So, why will the Browns beat the Seahawks?

Because the Seahawks simply have a habit of doing this. They are 2-3, but every once in a while, like they showed in 2010, they will come out of nowhere and shock an opponent.

But the Seahawks' true colors will be revealed in Week 7. I believe in Browns quarterback Colt McCoy as a franchise quarterback. He hasn't had a great season thus far by any means, but he does what he can with the limited receiving options he has.

The Seahawks are giving up 268.2 passing yards per game, and I think McCoy and the Browns will take advantage at home.

2. Denver Broncos (1-4)

The Denver Broncos are not exactly quieting concerns around Denver, but they are starting everyone's favorite quarterback, Tim Tebow. It's debatable whether Tebow will ever be a franchise quarterback, but there's no question the Broncos played hard for him last week when he was inserted under center.

The Broncos have the pleasure of playing the 0-5 Miami Dolphins in Week 7—a team that is now starting Matt Moore. I know the Broncos have a bad defense, but I can't imagine the Dolphins exactly racking up points.

Tebow will lead the Broncos to victory against a bad pass defense and all will be glorious for Broncos fans and Tim Tebow fans.

1. Dallas Cowboys (2-3)

The Dallas Cowboys have had their ups and downs this season, as has quarterback Tony Romo, but it's not like they're getting blown out.

The Cowboys look like a team that is uncertain whether it wants to make the playoffs with all the talent to do so. But they face the St. Louis Rams in Week 7, and you'd have to think they'll win that game.

You may even see rookie running back DeMarco Murray score a touchdown in relief of Felix Jones.
