Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said he had confidence that wide receiver Brian Thomas would help the team make plays against the Colts in Week 8 and he was proven right in the first quarter. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence punctuated the team’s opening drive with a 12-yard pass to Thomas in the end zone. The score put the Jaguars up 7-0 with nearly 10 minutes off the clock in Jacksonville. Thomas had no catches in Jacksonville’s last two games and he was benched in the second half of Week 6. The Jaguars moved 98 yards on the scoring drive as the Colts pinned them deep after a punt on their opening possession. Lawrence hooked up with tight end Brenton Strange for 46 yards on the biggest play of the drive. The Jags did lose safety Eric Murray to an elbow injury. He’s called questionable to return

Believe it or not, we're inching closer to the midway point of the 2026 regular season as Week 7 is on the horizon. The league is hot off the heels of a wildly entertaining Week 6 slate, which included some notable upsets like Cleveland taking down the Ravens to claim first place in the AFC North, as well as the Cardinals dropping the Rams to 2-4 on the year with a win at SoFi Stadium. Now, as we come down from the dramatics of the weekend, we begin looking around the corner to see what Week 7 has in store for us. The slate features five divisional matchups, headlined by Packers-Lions and Cowboys-Eagles, along with a heavyweight contest on "Sunday Night Football" between the Chiefs and Seahawks . We'll also continue to have an international flair to the week, as Sunday's action will begin in France, with the Steelers and Saints playing the first game in Paris. As we gear up for Week 7, let's take a look at the early odds for the slate and see who the oddsmakers have coming out on top. Note : Buffalo, Los Angeles ( Chargers ), Washington, and Jacksonville are on the bye in Week 7. All lines via DraftKings ; all games on Sunday unless noted Patriots at Bears (Thursday) Bears -2.5 49.5 Patriots +130, Bears -155 Steelers at Saints (in Paris) Steelers -2.5 44.5 Steelers -142, Saints +120 Colts at Vikings Vikings -6 42.5 Colts +215, Vikings -265 Bengals at Ravens Ravens -3 50.5 Bengals +150, Ravens -180 Giants at Texans Texans -9.5 43.5 Giants +370, Texans -485 Dolphins at Jets Jets -4.5 38.5 Dolphins +185, Jets -225 Browns at Titans Browns -1.5 36.5 Browns -125, Titans +105 49ers at Falcons 49ers -4.5 50.5 49ers -225, Falcons +185 Bucccaneers at Panthers Panthers -3 43.5 Buccaneers +150, Panthers -180 Broncos at Cardinals Broncos -4.5 43.5 Broncos -205, Cardinals +170 Packers at Lions Lions -3 52.5 Packers +150, Lions -180 Rams at Raiders Rams -5.5 46.5 Rams -258, Raiders +210 Chiefs at Seahawks Seahawks -2.5 42.5 Chiefs +110, Seahawks -130 Cowboys at Eagles (Monday) Cowboys -5.5 44.5 Cowboys -238, Eagles +195 The Bears have bumped up closer to a full field goal favorite as they face the Patriots at home Thursday. They're now laying 2.5 points after initially laying 1.5 points at the open. That could be thanks to Caleb Williams looking sharp in his return, as well as injuries to New England's offensive line on Sunday. Chicago is 4-2 ATS this season, which includes a 2-1 ATS mark at Soldier Field. So far this season, New England is 1-1-1 ATS on the road. The total for this game also ticked up a point to 49.5 after opening at 48.5. The Under is 7-5 between these teams this season. This is a neutral-site game and the first NFL regular-season game in Paris, France. Currently, the Steelers are favored, laying 2.5 points in this international contest. The total was also held at 44.5 at the open. Pittsburgh is 4-2 ATS this season, while the Saints are 3-3 ATS. The Over is 8-4 between them this season. The Cleveland Browns emerged from Week 6 in first place in the AFC North. They'll look to maintain their position atop the division when they roll into Nashville as a 1.5-point favorite over the Titans. Tennessee, meanwhile, will be looking to build off of its first win of the regular season after taking down the Colts in Indy. Despite the 1-5 start to the year, Tennessee is 3-3 ATS with a 1-2 ATS mark at home. The Browns are 4-2 ATS, but 1-2 ATS at home. The total for this game moved down to 36.5 after opening at 37.5. The Vikings are a 6-point favorite over the Colts after they emerge from the Week 6 bye. That's up from the 5.5-point spread at the open. Minnesota is 4-1 ATS this season, but 1-1 ATS at home. Indianapolis is 1-1 ATS on the road so far this season. Meanwhile, the total dropped to 42.5 after opening at 43.5. The Under is 4-1 in Vikings games this season. New York dropped to 2-4 on the season with a loss to New England on Sunday, but is still a 4.5-point favorite [... truncated ...]
A dramatic win in London sees the Texans edge the Jaguars 34‑31 on a last‑second field goal, sparking a turnaround after a 0‑4 start
Travis Hunter having best offensive game, worst defensive game of season
Last Sunday in London, the Eagles opted to put a kickoff in play with eight seconds left in the fourth quarter of a game against the Jaguars. This Sunday in London, the Texans opted to put a kickoff into the end zone with eight seconds left in the second quarter of a game against the Jaguars. Both decisions were incorrect, because of the number of timeouts the Jaguars had in hand. Last week, the Jaguars had no timeouts. It would have been difficult to complete a pass on the sidelines in field-goal range, since the Eagles could have guarded the boundaries and ignored the middle of the field. This week, the Jaguars had two timeouts. Giving them the ball at the 35 nearly resulted in gaining enough yards to get in range for another long kick from Cam Little. The throw from Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence to receiver Parker Washington at the Houston 46 was incomplete; Washington couldn’t control it before it hit the ground. If he’d made the catch, Little would have had a shot at a 63-yard game-tying field goal. Yes, it would have been a very long kick. But Little has the leg to make it. Three weeks ago, Little missed a 70-yard try just before halftime not because it was short but because it was just wide to the right . Obviously, there’s a chance that putting the kickoff in play would have resulted in a long return from the Jaguars. But this gets back to Mike Tomlin’s point that teams need to have the right special-teams players who can be trusted to make a tackle. Regardless, giving the Jaguars the ball at the 35 with eight seconds and two timeouts created a very real risk of something far easier to accomplish than a long kick return. If the 19-yard throw had been completed, the game could be 17-17 entering the third quarter
Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten has reached the end zone three times today, but only two of his touchdowns counted. Texans tight end Foster Moreau also has two touchdowns today, and a Texans field goal on top of it gives Houston a 17-14 lead at halftime. A Tuten touchdown run was overturned on a bad holding call early in the game, a major error by the official that was particularly costly when the Jaguars came away with no points after a Trevor Lawrence interception on the same possession. But in the second quarter, Tuten left no doubt when he caught two short Trevor Lawrence passes and scored on both of them. On the first, he winded his way through the Texans’ defense for a 27-yard touchdown. The second was easy, as the Texans left him open on second-and-goal for a two-yard touchdown. The Texans’ passing game is also making plays. Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel has two catches, one for 50 yards and one for 34 yards. Texans wide receiver Nico Collins burned Travis Hunter for a 42-yard gain, and later drew a pass interference penalty on Hunter in the end zone to give the Texans first-and-goal at the 1-yard line. Texans wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. made his first catch as a Texan, a 14-yarder over the middle in the second quarter. But while the wide receivers are getting the big plays, it’s the tight end, Moreau, who is getting into the end zone. He has two touchdown catches, one from six yards out and one from one yard out. The Texans have a couple of big injury concerns on defense, as linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair is being evaluated for a concussion, and safety Reed Blankenship was carted to the locker room late in the second quarter. It’s been a tight, back-and-forth game with major implications for the AFC South
