Washington Commanders vs. Carolina Panthers

Carolina allows the eighth-most passing yards, second-most rushing yards and fourth-most total yards to opponents.

In Week 7, the Commanders should once again take advantage of the Panthers’ defense.

Jayden Daniels should have fun with Carolina in every way possible. The quarterback should thrive in the air with Terry McLaurin and Co., and he could also post a high rushing yard total.

Daniels’ ground production will be affected by whether Brian Robinson Jr. is playing after missing Week 6 with a knee injury.

At the very least, Daniels and McLaurin should have a good day against the Panthers. Austin Ekeler, Zach Ertz and Jeremy McNichols could be contenders for top sleeper plays because of the matchup.

Cincinnati Bengals vs. Cleveland Browns

The Cincinnati Bengals finally created some momentum for themselves with Sunday night’s win over the New York Giants.

The Bengals have a favorable matchup in Week 7 with the Cleveland Browns, who have emerged as one of the top contenders for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

Cincinnati’s defense should have a high starting percentage in Week 7 because of all the sack potential against Deshaun Watson.

Joe Burrow’s health has not been an issue for Cincinnati this season and he is expected to put up strong numbers against the Browns defense.

Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins have the potential to put up even better numbers than AJ, Brown and DeVonta Smith against the Browns in Week 6. Brown and Smith each had at least 60 yards and a touchdown catch.
