NFL Week 7: Experts Favor Underdogs, Serby Leads Picks

The New York Post's panel of NFL experts has largely favored underdogs against the spread for Week 7, continuing a trend observed in the early games of the week. The experts began Week 7 by correctly predicting the outcome of the Chicago Bears' victory on "Thursday Night Football."

Steve Serby leads the expert standings with a record of 53-38-2. For Week 7, Serby is picking 11 underdogs to just two favorites.

Across the 13 games scheduled for Sunday and Monday, the Post's experts have made 130 selections against the spread. Of these, 80 selections favor the underdog, while 50 favor the favorite. A notable consensus among the experts is their backing of the New York Giants with a 10.5-point advantage against the Houston Texans, with all but one expert selecting the Giants to cover.

The season is progressing quickly, and Week 7 presents further opportunities for strong betting performances. Odds for the week's games are provided by BetMGM Sportsbook.
