NFL Week 7 ‘Thursday Night Football’ game picks and predictions

Six games are in the books for most NFL teams—aside from the four on bye last week—and Week 7 kicks off tonight with a Thursday Night Football matchup between two preseason contenders who have both fallen far short of expectations. The New Orleans Saints (+2.5)

(2-4) take on the Arizona Cardinals (-2.5) (2-4) in what, on paper at least, looks like a significantly more entertaining game than what we’ve been subjected to the last two weeks.

Let’s get right to tonight’s pick, which I’ll be making on a straight moneyline (aka picking the winner) basis.
