Well, folks, Week 7 of the 2026 NFL Season is already here, and before you know it, we'll be talking about the NFL Trade Deadline and what the fallout is from that. With the end of October nearing, the weather is going to get colder, and the games are going to begin to mean more.
And, unfortunately, this is also the part of the season where the truly bad teams in the league are exposed as just that. Many teams in the league will have seven full games under their belts when Week 7 is up, and that is most definitely a large enough sample size to tell us one way or another how good, or bad, those teams are.
As we have done each week thus far, let's dive into the teams we believe are guaranteed to lose in Week 7.
These 3 teams are simply guaranteed to lose in Week 7
Atlanta Falcons (vs. San Francisco 49ers)
You almost feel bad for any team that has to play the San Francisco 49ers at this point, and the 49ers are also doing this with a ton of injuries! The Niners did see the Washington Commanders keep it close in Week 6, which I found a bit troubling, but the Niners are also the best team in the sport, and I believe the Atlanta Falcons are closer to being a bad team than a good one.
That isn't to say that the Falcons haven't gotten encouraging play this year from Michael Penix Jr, for example, but this team is a solid year, at best, away from being close to the tier that the 49ers are in.
The Falcons should be able to put up some points with their group of playmakers, but it seems like the 49ers are playing good football to the point where you just can't say for sure when the first loss will be, and I don't believe the Falcons stand out enough to dethrone the Niners here in Week 7.
