  • NFL Week 7 Recap: Browns Keep Winning, JJ McCarthy Shines, Seahawks Shut Down Mahomes
    Oct 27 2026

    Cody and Dearian break down NFL Week 7 on The Take Factory, recorded in person. They go game by game, with betting angles, stats and hot takes.


    Chargers: Winless talk, and a Justin Herbert grocery-store story. Steelers 16, Saints 10: The first NFL game in Paris. It had only 13 possessions, and the Saints' running backs managed 11 yards on 14 carries. Falcons 29, 49ers 20: Four 49ers turnovers, injuries at receiver, and why Atlanta is so hard to bet on. Bengals 35, Ravens 13: Baltimore led 13-0 at halftime. Cincinnati then scored a touchdown on all five second-half drives. Giants 27, Texans 21: JJ McCarthy is on a hot streak. They ask what it means for Jackson Dart, and for Cam Skattebo. Browns 27, Titans 24: Cleveland is 5-2 after another close finish, and Cody is warming to the Browns. Vikings 16, Colts 10: They test whether Minnesota's defense is really elite or just played weak offenses. Broncos 30, Cardinals 16: Bo Nix's long run. Rams over Raiders: Their run-heavy game plan. Seahawks over Chiefs: Seattle held Mahomes without a red-zone trip. Sam Darnold keeps finding Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who had nine catches for 150 yards
