Full list of Week 7 straight-up picks with confidence levels

The NFL saw a rash of upsets through the first five weeks, but Week 6 finally say the chaos come under control. The two undefeated teams (Chiefs, Vikings) were on bye, but virtually every favorite won this weekend.

The closest thing we had to an upset saw the Colts beat the Titans in Nashville. That line moved quite a bit, with both teams favored at different points. However, aside from that, it was all chalk. That meant I continued to get back on track with my weekly confidence picks. I was 12-2, losing only my upset picks of the Cowboys over the Lions and the Giants over the Bengals. I was 2-0 on my high confidence picks, 5-0 on medium confidence, and 5-2 on low confidence.

We’re on to Week 7, with only two byes this week as the Bears and Cowboys get a break. Here’s my full list of picks for Week 7. A game with three asterisks (***) after it indicates a game where I’m picking the betting underdog to get the win.
