Week 7 of the 2025 NFL Season is here, and it’s time to make some picks. This time it’s for confidence pools, and the season has gone by super fast. There are only 15 games as both the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills are on a bye week.

How To Play In Confidence Pools

The rules of these pools are simple: rank every NFL game based on your level of confidence. If they are ranked 15th and they win, they get 15 points for that game and onward.

The Week 7 Confidence Picks

Stefon Diggs, a former Bills player, looks around at the crowd as the crowd has a mixed reaction to his return with another team before the Bills home game against the New England Patriots at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park on Oct. 5, 2025.

15. New England Patriots (at Tennessee Titans)
14. Kansas City Chiefs (vs Las Vegas Raiders)
13. Chicago Bears (vs New Orleans Saints) *Would have been my survivor pick for this week*
12. Seattle Seahawks (vs Houston Texans)
11. Carolina Panthers (at New York Jets)
10. Detroit Lions (vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers)
9. Denver Broncos (vs New York Giants)
8. Green Bay Packers (at Arizona Cardinals)
7. Cleveland Browns (vs Miami Dolphins)
6. Washington Commanders (at Dallas Cowboys)
5. Los Angeles Rams (at Jacksonville Jaguars)
4. San Francisco 49ers (vs Atlanta Falcons)
3. Philadelphia Eagles (vs Minnesota Vikings)
2. Indianapolis Colts (at Los Angeles Chargers)
1. Cincinnati Bengals (vs Pittsburgh Steelers)

Total Points Week 1: 106/136
Total Points Week 2: 109/136
Total Points Week 3: 93/136
Total Points Week 4: 106/136
Total Points Week 5: 35/105
Total Points Week 6: 81/120

Sneaky Pick Of The Week

Out of the picks above, the one that pops up as a sneaky pick in Confidence pools is the Carolina Panthers. Now, look, there are still a lot of unknowns with Carolina as they’re very inconsistent, but this is a play against the New York Jets. The Jets are the most dysfunctional franchise in the NFL, and it’s not even close. Woody Johnson is a terrible owner, Justin Fields is terrified to throw, and Aaron Glenn has been horrendous as the head coach. Aaron Glenn needs PR training with the way he goes after the media, like bro, you’re 0-6 and got to be smart.

To make things worse, Garrett Wilson, the only competent receiver on the team, is injured and likely won’t play. It’s hard to name another receiver on the team until you look it up. That’s how bad it is, and besides Breece Hall, it’s hard to trust anyone on this offense. Well, we will see on Breece as his name has been on he trading block lately. Along with the defense being sloppy, Carolina should take care of business at this spot, and you should be highly confident with them this week.
