#541: 2025 Week 7 NFL Preview (with Hal Bent)

What this episode covers

1. Week 6 Takeaways-DKrom: Chiefs offense looks better than they have in ages...and they have a major upgrade on the way in Rashee Rice -Hal: Can't wait until the trade deadline because everything's so jumbled up right now2. Week 6 Honors-GOAT of the Week (DKrom: Dave Canales, Hal: Justin Herbert)-Dunce of the Week (DKrom: Aaron Glenn, Hal: Jerry Jones)3. On a scale of 1-10 (1 being no panic at all, 10 being hide the kids), how panicked are you that the impatience and impulsive decision making of Titans ownership will ruin the promising talent that is Cam Ward? Also, each of the last four QB's selected at first overall (Trevor Lawrence, Bryce Young, Caleb Williams, and now Cam Ward) have had their head coach fired during their rookie campaign. On that same scale of 1-10, how alarming of a trend is this becoming for young QB's? 4. According to NFL insider Benjamin Allbright, a big name to watch for the Titans HC vacancy is Giants OC Mike Kafka. Keep in mind, Kafka worked together with Mike Borgonzi in Kansas City, where he was the QB’s coach and had a very influential role in the development of Patrick Mahomes. And as these past three weeks have shown, he has done an excellent job with Jaxson Dart thus far. How good of a hire would Mike Kafka be? 5. Truth or Exaggeration (Division Race Edition)-There is a path for the Giants to win the NFC East-The NFC West will be a two-team race between the Rams and the Seahawks-The Falcons are a legit threat to the Bucs in the NFC South-The winner of the Packers/Lions game on Thanksgiving Day will win the NFC North-The Patriots should be the betting favorite to win the AFC East-If their offense continues the improvement it has shown the last two games, the Texans will leapfrog the Colts and Jaguars to win the AFC South -Thanks to their red hot offense, Bo Nix’s sophomore struggles and the Chargers injury issues, the Chiefs will win their 10th consecutive AFC West title -The Ravens will rally back from their four-game deficit and win their third consecutive AFC North title 6. Week 7 Game Picks-Lock of the Week (DKrom: Chiefs over Raiders, Hal: Panthers over Jets)-Upset Special (DKrom: Saints over Bears, Hal: Bucs over Lions)-Steelers at Bengals-Rams at Jaguars-Dolphins at Browns-Patriots at Titans -Eagles at Vikings-Colts at Chargers-Giants at Broncos-Packers at Cardinals-Commanders at Cowboys-Falcons at 49ers-Texans at Seahawks7. Bold Predictions-DKrom: Giants sack Bo Nix 10 times, 7 of them by Abdul Carter (including a strip-sack fumble late in the fourth quarter to set up the game-winning FG)-Hal: Baker Mayfield throws 5 TD to 5 different people, and leads his team to another last-second game-winning FG8. Challenge Flags-DKrom: Chiefs and other teams favored by a TD or more...DO NOT PLAY DOWN TO YOUR COMPETITION!!!!-Hal: Cam Ward...keep your chin up and look to Drake Maye and Caleb Williams as an example of where you could be!!!!
