Key Fixture Breakdown & Predictions
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New Orleans Saints Prediction & Odds
Kickoff: Sunday, October 25 | 9:30 AM ET / 2:30 PM CET | Stade de France, Paris, France
Match Preview
A historic milestone for the NFL and France. Pittsburgh enters after a strong Week 6, relying on relentless pass-rush pressure and Aaron Rodgers’ old-man magic. New Orleans continues to retool offensively, but its defense is still shaky. Expect an offensive approach from the Saints, who will try to outscore the rivals, not stop them. Steelers definitely have the resources to answer that, which is why we bet on Over.
- Best Bet: Over 43.5
Kansas City Chiefs at Seattle Seahawks Prediction & Odds
Kickoff: Sunday, October 25 | 8:20 PM ET / 1:20 AM CET (Mon) | Lumen Field, Seattle, WA
Match Preview
Sunday Night Football heads to the Pacific Northwest as the Kansas City Chiefs face the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field. Kansas City has the NFL’s best rusher, Kenneth Walker III, who has boosted the Chiefs’ offensive variables. If Mahomes feels under pressure, go to Walker, and the other way around. This guy is one of the top NFL player prop bets over the last few weekends. The Seahawks are good, but they give the ball a lot, and those turnovers are what’s killing the Super Bowl champions right now. Offensive diversity and a top-10 defense are what force us to bet on the guests.
- Best Bet: Chiefs
Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles Prediction & Odds
Kickoff: Monday, October 26 | 8:15 PM ET / 1:15 AM CET (Tue) | Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA
Match Preview
Week 7 concludes with an NFC East collision under the Monday Night Football lights in Philadelphia. We are saying right away: bet on the Dallas Cowboys here. Philly’s starting QB Jalen Hurts is out, and it seems that their RB star, Saquon Barkley, also won’t play. Meanwhile, the Cowboys are under pressure and have to win to get back in the playoff race.
- Best Bet: Cowboys -4.5
