Week 7 Monday Review: Amid Many Disappointing Individual and Team Performances, There are Still Plenty of Positive Takeaways from Sunday

October 21, 2024

Through Sunday’s Week 7 games, 11 of the 26 teams failed to score more than 16 points, with five of those teams unable to surpass 10 points. Just as it looked like we were rounding the corner, the NFL gave us arguably the worst week of the season.

And it wasn’t just teams that disappointed, as many of our favorite players like C.J. Stroud, Tyrone Tracy, Malik Nabers, DeVonta Smith, Jayden Reed, and Xavier Worthy all disappointed with their ineffectiveness. And that’s before we add in all the players that went out with injuries.

Before we let the pessimism of another lackluster week of NFL action take hold, we must remember that there were also some very exciting performances that we can point to this week. For the sake of optimism, that is what we will be focusing on today (that is, at least until we get to the injury portion of the article).

As always, we will be using the Monday Review tool to look at all the Week 7 action as we head into a Monday Night double dip to finish off the week.

Landing Spot Instant Reactions From The First 2 Days of the 2025 NFL Draft

Kevin Szafraniec April 25, 2025

In the week prior to the 2025 NFL Draft, I put out articles detailing the ideal landing spots for this year’s rookie crop of running backs and wide receivers based on vacated opportunities from 2024 and player performance. As players at both positions come off the board, I will be analyzing what their new NFL home means for their fantasy value, as well as how…...

With Comps to Late Bloomers Like Davante Adams, Robert Woods, and Michael Crabtree, Can This WR Buck the Trend with a Year 2 Breakout?

Kevin Szafraniec April 22, 2025

Robert Woods was drafted at the beginning of the second round in 2013 by Buffalo, but had to wait six years before seeing his first breakout season. Following his first 200-point PPR season in 2018, he put up two more in consecutive seasons. The 49ers selected Michael Crabtree with the 10th pick of the 2009 draft, but he did not break out until his fourth…...

Is the Sky the Limit For This WR Whose First Year Looked A Lot Like Tyreek Hill’s Rookie Season?

Kevin Szafraniec April 21, 2025

Due to off-the-field issues, Tyreek Hill was not selected until the fifth round of the 2016 draft. If based solely on attributes, he would have easily come off of the board in one of the first two rounds. Hill’s talent was never in doubt, and he proved it by putting up more than 200 PPR points and finishing as the PPR WR18 during his rookie…...
