NFL Week 7 Scores & Recaps

Week 7 · 15 games · October 19, 2025 · Updated Jul 9, 12:03 AM ET

The Almanac's Take

Denver's 33-32 win over the Giants — a 7.5-point home underdog pulling it out by one — is the headline, and the 65 combined points shredded an over in the most emphatic way possible. Green Bay's 27-23 road win in Arizona was the week's wildest probability ride despite the modest margin, with the Packers covering as 7-point favorites on the road. Cincinnati edged Pittsburgh 33-31 in another tight AFC North clash, while Dallas ran Washington off the field 44-22 despite opening as a slight home underdog. The slate ran hot — eight of twelve decided games went over their total.

Methodology

Final scores, box-score leaders, and the schedule are facts from nflverse. Win probability and the drama index (the sum of the win-probability swings across a game) are nflfastR-modeled — derived estimates, not raw facts; the win-probability line is the home team's, already team-relative. Standings are regular-season records to date, with win percentage counting a tie as half a win. Each game's recap is written from that deterministic data — the model turns the numbers into prose, it never computes them.
