NFL Week 7 betting locks: The Steelers will slow down Ryan Tannehill and the Titans

It’s always a good time to make some money, and we’ve got four betting locks for Week 7 in the NFL, including a pick for Thursday Night Football.

All betting lines via BetMGM.

Charles: Bills -13.5 over Jets

The Jets are a terrible football team, so I’m more than happy to lay the 13.5 points and take the Bills. Yes, the Jets kept their first game with the Bills to within 10 points, but the Bills need to make a statement after winning two straight.

Nick: Cowboys-Washington over 45.5

This line feels like an overreaction to the Cowboys’ terrible offensive performance against the Cardinals. And yeah, while the WFT’s offense is bad, the Cowboys are allowing 36 points per game.

Steven: Steelers +1.5 over Titans

I don’t really understand this line. I think it should be reversed, and I think it should be bigger. The Steelers should win this one comfortably. The Titans do have a great record, but they’re ninth in point differential, suggesting that maybe they’re not as good as their record implies. And the Steelers have really caused problems for teams that rely on play-action passes, like the Browns and the Broncos.

BONUS LOCK: Giants-Eagles over 44.5

Neither of these defenses is any good, and while the Eagles will be missing Miles Sanders, both teams will be getting offensive weapons back on the field. DeSean Jackson is healthy and Darius Slayton is expected to play for the Giants. Philadelphia’s offense has been clicking in the last three weeks despite all of Carson Wentz’s turnovers. I’m expecting a total in the 50s here. – NS
