NFL Week 7 Picks, Brett Favre's Luck Runs Out Against "Hair" Polamalu

Green Bay Packers at Cleveland Browns - 1:00 p.m. at Cleveland Browns Stadium
Look, things are so back in Cleveland right now, LeBron may just tell the whole team to leave. They've only won 1 game this year and that one they should have, by all rights, lost. I mean, how does your quarterback go 2 for 17 and you still win? Horrible, but there is more wrong with this organization right now than just a lack of offensive effort. The Packers are looking better this year overall, and despite a couple of tough losses, they are still in this divisional race. Look for them to have their way with a Browns team that needs answers but isn't finding any.
Green Bay 34 Cleveland 3

San Francisco 49ers at Houston Texans - 1:00 p.m. at Reliant Stadium
I was a 49ers fan back when Joe Montana was my hero, so I was excited a little bit to see Mike Singletary seemingly turning this team around. Maybe I got too excited too soon. They've lost 2 of their last 3 and stand to lose the lead in the division to an Arizona team quietly sneaking back into contention. Houston has improved over past years and in fact look like they could give Indianapolis problems in the AFC South. Schaub looked good in last week's thrashing of the Bengals, but look for this one to be a lot closer. San Francisco 23 Houston 20

San Diego Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs - 1:00 p.m. at Arrowhead Stadium
Upset Alert! I like the Chiefs in this one. Don't really know why, but maybe it's the fact that they nearly beat the Cowboys two weeks ago, then stuck it to the Redskins this past week. Not that those are top-ranked teams or anything, but I think the Chiefs may have a head of steam up and the Chargers are still reeling from being completely outplayed by one of the best teams in the AFC in the Broncos this past Monday night. A short week and an offensive line that has trouble protecting Rivers is a formula for an upset.
Kansas City 21 San Diego 13

Indianapolis Colts at St. Louis Rams - 1:00 p.m. at Edward Jones Dome
The Colts are playing better than they have in several years. Manning is winning games easily it seems like, and who wouldn't with the offensive talent that Bill Polian's been able to field for him? Who would have thought that Garcon and Collie would have replace Harrison and Gonzalez as household names? The Rams still struggle to win a game, mainly because they can't close the deal. Not to mention that they'll be playing a top-ranked defense this week in the Colts. Last week was probably their best opportunity to get a win against the Jags. The Colts will have to be careful though, playing a team hungry for a win coming off of a bye week is never a good combination, but look what they did to the Titans last week. The Colts might get to a slow start, but once they get going, look out!
Indianapolis 38 St. Louis 10

New England Patriots vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - 1:00 p.m. at Wembley Stadium
So, you just got done setting NFL records by shutting out the self-destructive Tennessee Titans 59-0, you have to travel halfway across the world and play a Tampa Bay Buccaneers team that has yet to win a game. Apparently if you're Tom Brady, this is not a problem. The Bucs looked horrible against the running attack of Carolina, and won't fare any better this week against the masterful Brady. Let the "running up the score" discussion continue! The most interesting portion of this game will be seeing how many Brits show up to the game.

New England 48 Tampa Bay 13
Minnesota Vikings at Pittsburgh Steelers - 1:00 p.m. at Heinz Field
Upset Alert!  The Minnesota Vikings taste defeat! The Steelers and their grizzly bear of a quarterback have their sights set on the postseason, and I still have a hard time with the Vikings continuing to win on Brett Favre's luck (I still think he closes his eyes when he throws the ball). The Steel Curtain is back to 100% with old "Hair" Polamalu back in the lineup. As long as he stays healthy for the whole game, he'll make the plays against Favre that the Steelers need to get past the Vikes. It will be close, but the Steelers will pull it out.
Pittsburgh 24 Vikings 21

Buffalo Bills at Carolina Panthers - 4:05 p.m. at Bank of America Stadium
