NFL Fantasy Football Week 7 + TNF Pitt at Cinn

Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji get you ready for NFL Week 7 fantasy football. The guys also preview TNF Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji deliver a tightly packed Week 7 Fantasy Football preview, focusing on Thursday Night Football between the 4-1 Steelers and 2-4 Bengals. They discuss Pittsburgh’s surprising start and Cincinnati’s quarterback shake-up, as Joe Flacco replaces the injured Joe Burrow and instantly revitalizes Jamar Chase and Tee Higgins. Both hosts like the Bengals to cover +5.5 and suggest Joe Flacco over 237.5 passing yards as a prop bet, arguing that his composure and passing volume could exploit the Steelers’ shaky secondary. They note that while Pittsburgh ranks near the bottom in yards per game, they still score efficiently—making this matchup ripe for an upset. Fantasy-wise, with Calvin Austin out, Darnell Washington becomes a sneaky flex play against a Bengals defense surrendering around 66 yards and five TDs to tight ends, with his yardage prop at 23.5 and TD odds of +320. On the Bengals side, Noah Fant benefits from injuries to Mike Gesicki and Tanner Hudson, making him Flacco’s likely safety valve. Beyond Thursday, they highlight Tyler Higbee as a top tight end fill-in after Puka Nacua’s injury, preferring him over Noah Fant for volume upside. They debate DJ Moore versus David Montgomery, with Rod siding with Moore’s consistent target share and Munaf trusting Montgomery’s touchdown reliability. With injuries piling up, they suggest deeper flex options like Tampa Bay’s Tayz or Cameron Johnson stepping up amid receiver absences, while warning against chasing points from backs like Zach Charbonnet against the Texans’ stingy run defense. They also recommend Harold Fannin Jr. as a high-upside tight end streamer. Wrapping up, they plug Pregame.com’s NBA contest and promo codes, then discuss late-week matchups like Garrett Wilson’s injury impact, favoring Mason Taylor over Isaiah Davis for the Jets’ passing volume, and promoting Raiders tight end Michael Mayer as a prime pickup while Brock Bowers is out. The hosts close by encouraging listeners to engage with the show’s new format—mixing betting lines, fantasy insights, and early-week roster strategy—and promise even earlier content heading into Week 8.
