Sunday, November 1st – Cowboys Stadium – Dallas, TX
NFL Point Spread: Cowboys -9.5, O/U: 46
These are two teams headed in opposite directions. Seattle briefly held out hope for its season after throttling Jacksonville, 41-0, on Oct. 11, but coach Jim Mora’s club was brought to earth a week later, in a 27-3 loss at the hands of NFC West-leading Arizona.
South Carolina Gamecocks @ Tennessee Volunteers
Saturday, October 31st – Neyland Stadium – 7:45 PM ET
College Football Spread: Tennessee -5.5, O/U: 40
San Francisco 49ers @ Indianapolis Colts
Sunday, November 1st – Lucas Oil Stadium – Indianapolis, IN
NFL Point Spread: Colts -12, O/U: 44
The 49ers found some life last week, despite losing by three in Houston against the Texans. Quarterback Alex Smith, filling in for an ineffective Shaun Hill, rallied coach Mike Singletary’s squad to three touchdowns, but a late interception sealed the 49ers’ fate in the heart of Texas.
Sunday, November 1st – Soldier Field – Chicago, IL
NFL Point Spread: Bears -13, O/U: 40
This is another game that won’t be found in the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s archives… unless there’s a Football Follies section. Cleveland Browns brings its dysfunctional team and its particularly horrendous offense into the Windy City to play a bunch of Bears who are not living up to preseason expectations, at least not in the case of Chicago quarterback Jay Cutler.

Almost ½ was through the season and the Story lines just keep getting larger. Week 7 brings us undefeated teams, some new offensive starters, and some interesting teams coming off byes. Oh ya – there’s Favre’s return to Lambeau, and some key divisional games.
Here is what I will be watching in what should be a most intriguing Week 8 of the NFL.
Brett Favre is coming back home… as an enemy; it just doesn’t get much better than this. Sports betting fans should be thrilled because this is the game of the year as Favre and the Vikings visit Lambeau field this week to take on the Packers.
And with 3 teams left undefeated (Saints, Colts, Broncos) will any of them continue this streak after touch matchups this weekend?
Let’s just say last week didn’t offer the most exciting games.
There were a few close games of course, but the only game between my top ranked teams turned out to be a blowout when TCU beat BYU 38-7.
This week could be the complete opposite. Two games this Saturday are going to be MUST watch games and will have BCS implications: USC at Oregon in the Pac-10 and Texas at Oklahoma State in a game that could settle the Big 12 South.
If you are in need of a HOT fantasy football player these Top Hot players for the week should help you out if they’re in your lineup. They may also be free agents on your waiver wire.
If you need to dump a lame duck on your team, these NOTS should be them. Throw em in the trash if you can afford to not have them on your bench. Fantasy Football always favors the prepared mind.
The more research you do, and the more HOT players you have to choose from on your team, the better your odds are of winning your fantasy football league outright this year.
This is our waiver wire pick-ups column. Dave B scours the free agent pools in fantasy land for the best available talent every week. Availability, of course, depends on the league. We’re using 12 team, 15 roster spot leagues as the median, but we’ll look for roster candidates for leagues of all shapes and sizes.

Without wasting any more of your time, here are the Week 7 Fantasy Football Studs & Duds plus key player stats for the NFL games that went on on this week (Week 7).
Indianapolis Colts at St. Louis Rams
Sunday, October 25TH – 1:00 ET Edward Jones Dome
NFL Sports Betting Point Spread: Colts -13, O/U: 45
Fresh off their bye week the Indianapolis Colts get an opportunity to rack up a lot of points against the Rams on the road. The Colts have won their last three games by double digits and appear to be the most complete team in the AFC. Even without Bob Sanders the Colts defense has been very solid allowing just over 14 points per game.
San Diego Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs
Sunday, October 25th – 1:00 ET
Arrowhead Stadium
NFL Point Spread: Chargers -5, O/U: 44
In a must win game, the San Diego Chargers were beat up at home by the Denver Broncos both straight up and against the NFL week 7 sports betting odds.
Minnesota Vikings at Pittsburgh Steelers
Sunday, October 25th – Heinz Field – 1:00 ET
NFL Point Spread: Steelers -4, O/U: 45
The Pittsburgh Steelers are finally healthy and having Troy Polamalu back on the defensive side of the ball makes a huge difference for this team. The Steelers also made it official this week naming Rashard Mendenhall as their starting running back. After their 1-2 start the Steelers have reeled off three straight wins and appear to be back on track.
TCU Horned Frogs @ BYU Cougars
Saturday, October 24th – 7:30 PM ET
LaVell Edwards Stadium
NCAA Football Betting Spread: TCU -2.5, O/U: 51
After all of the weekly games are finished be sure to check our waiver wire column, studs and duds, a who’s hot, and who’s not report plus more in our fantasy football guide.
Here is another installment of the Watchlist Q & A. This week there are more teams returning from byes, some teams with a lot to prove, and there are plenty of injury concerns for your Fantasy teams. Add in the fact that there are some pretty damn good games on the schedule and you have what promises to be a very interesting week in the NFL.
