Here’s a look at some interesting facts about NFL Week 7 matchups.
The Battle of the Bay
The San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings are two of the most storied franchises in NFL history, and their rivalry is one of the most intense in the league. The two teams have met 102 times, with the 49ers holding a 58-44 lead. The Vikings have won the last two meetings, but the 49ers are the defending NFC champions and will be looking to get revenge.
Other Important Matchups
- Jacksonville Jaguars vs. New Orleans Saints: The Jaguars are coming off a disappointing 9-8 season, while the Saints are looking to build on their 7-10 record from last year. This should be a good matchup between two top quarterbacks in Trevor Lawrence and Derek Carr.
- Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots: The Bills and Patriots are two of the best teams in the AFC, and this game could have major playoff implications. The Bills are the defending AFC East champions, while the Patriots are looking to get back to the playoffs after a one-year absence.
- Washington Commanders vs. New York Giants: The Commanders and Giants are two of the most disappointing teams in the NFC East, and this game could be a battle for last place in the division. The Commanders are coming off a 8-8 season, while the Giants are 9-7.
