We’ve made it to Week 7 of the NFL Season. There are only two teams on a bye, with the third and final London game kicking off the Sunday schedule. But what about the other matchups? Below are the five games on the Sunday slate I’m most excited to see.

Early Games:

Seattle Seahawks (3-3) at Atlanta Falcons (4-2)
About: The Seahawks were once 3-0. Since then, the team has lost three straight games. That leaves them needing a win if they want to hang in the playoff race. The Falcons, meanwhile, got off to a slow start. After going 1-2 to start the season, the Falcons have won three straight against divisional opponents to get to 4-2. Can they keep winning against someone not in the division? We’ll find out on Sunday.

Houston Texans (5-1) at Green Bay Packers (4-2)
About: The NFC North has been the best division this season, with each of the teams sitting on at least four wins after six games. The Texans, meanwhile, have been perfect aside from a Week 2 slip against the Vikings. Can they get to six wins here, or will Green Bay take another step forward? This could be one of the best games of Week 7.

Detroit Lions (4-1) at Minnesota Vikings (5-0)
About: Speaking of the NFC North, here’s a doozy of a battle. The Vikings are one of two unbeaten teams, fresh off a bye week. They also beat the Packers in Green Bay, giving them a great start to division competition. The Lions, meanwhile, have won their past two games in style, scoring 40-plus points in each contest. This could have some fireworks and may well be the game of the week.

Late Games:

Kansas City Chiefs (5-0) at San Francisco 49ers (3-3)
About: This is a Super Bowl re-match that sees the still undefeated Chiefs fresh off a bye in to battle the 49ers. The 49ers have dealt with injuries but got back to .500 with a big win in Seattle last week. With 10 days off, they return home for a mammoth matchup that is easily the best of the three late window games. This game could have big ramifications for the winner.

Sunday Night Football:

New York Jets (2-4) at Pittsburgh Steelers (4-2)
About: This is a tale of two teams trending in opposite directions. The Steelers are a strong 4-2, in the thick of the playoff hunt in a good AFC North. The Jets, meanwhile, are struggling on offense and on to their second coach of the season. They fell short Monday against the Bills, the question is whether they can get it together against a good defense in Pittsburgh in their third straight nationally televised game.
