NFL Season Rolling Along
22 October 2020

The 2020 NFL season is more than a third over as we head into Week 7. It hasn't been smooth sailing with COVID-19 interruptions for various teams. Games have been postponed to other weeks, moved to different days, and bye weeks have been altered.
Injuries to some big-name players like Dak Prescott, Saquon Barkley, Christian McCaffrey and Michael Thomas have also plagued the first six weeks of the season.
There are still three unbeaten teams, and all have had their bye week. The Seattle Seahawks are the only 5-0 team in the NFC after the Green Bay Packers lost in Tampa Bay 38-10 on Sunday.
In the AFC, both the Pittsburgh Steelers and Tennessee Titans are 5-0 after their Week 4 game was postponed due to a Titans COVID-19 outbreak. They play this Sunday in Tennessee at 1 p.m. ET, with the Steelers favored by 2.5 points on the road.
The only team yet to win this season is the 0-6 New York Jets. Nine teams have just one win, including three of the four teams in the NFC East.
The NFC East goes head-to-head this week as the 1-5 New York Giants travel to the 1-4-1 Philadelphia Eagles (-3.5) on Thursday night, while the 1-5 Washington Football Team host the 2-4 Dallas Cowboys (-3) on Sunday.
The biggest games in Week 7 include the Seahawks (-3) at the 3-2 Arizona Cardinals on Sunday at 4 p.m. ET, the 4-2 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-3) at the 4-2 Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday Night Football, and the 5-1 Chicago Bears at the 4-2 Los Angeles Rams (-6) on Monday Night Football.
