Trouble spots all over the NFL road map as teams head into Weekend #7.

CHARGERS..Bye week amidst the firestorm of an (0-6) start to the season…Have not fired Mike McDaniel as Off Coord..but demanding he streamline a complex playbook that has the team ranked (#26) in offense..(#27) passing…(#27) in 3rd downs..(#31) on 4th downs..Injuries have wrecked the roster..the playbook and the changes in footwork and mechanics have wrecked QB-Justin Herbert.

BUFFALO..A bye week for its bombs away offense-but lots of work to be done on a very disappointing defense.

PATRIOTS-BEARS..Big bounceback couple of weeks for Drake Maye-but this may not last..they have lost their top four offensive guards and both this starting tackles are hurt.

STEELERS-SAINTS…New Orleans with huge internal problems, all at the front door of GM-Mickey Loomis-who may not survive…QB issues swirling around Tyler Shough’s erording performances.

49ERS-FALCONS..All these injuries and the Niners (6-0) keep winning, while the Falcons (2-4) are scary with Michael Penix-Bijan Robinson-Drake London.

CLEVELAND-TITANS..A Browns team (4-2) with pedestrian numbers from QB-Deshaun Watson..A Titans team with very little offense and Coach Robert Saleh under fire too.

COLTS-VIKINGS…Turnover QB-Daniel Jones has to line up against the #1-ranked defense in the NFL.

MIAMI-JETS..Two troubled offensive teams..The Jets just gave Frank Reich a vote of confidence as Off Coor…Malik Willis leads an (0-5) Dolphins team.

TAMPA BAY-CAROLINA..Bryce Young with (100-QB rating) going against a (1-5) Bucs team without Baker Mayfield and with a head coach in trouble.

BENGALS-BALTIMORE..Marquee matchup-Joe Burrows against Jesse Minter’s impressive defense..Lamar Jackson’s ankle still a problem for Ravens.

GIANTS-HOUSTON..JJ McCarthy replaces Jameis Winston as starting QB and he has to go against the CJ Stroud-led Texans and a pass rush that has 20-sacks

DENVER-ARIZONA..Two really troubled teams..Bo Nix and the offense don’t look right…and the Cardinals need a big Jacoby Brissett day against the Broncos pass rushers.

GREEN BAY-DETROIT…Throwing contest, Jordan Love-vs-Jared Goff-should be a doozy.

RAMS-RAIDERS..Sean McVay’s team (2-4) impaled by lots of injuries…Klint Kubiak trying to stop a 2-game skid but he does have big gun Kirk Cousins having a superb season

CHIEFS-SEATTLE..Is there an ambush waiting here…Mahomes-Walker-Kelce and an improved defense against a Seahawks defense that is relentless…but Seattle QB-Sam Darnold has become a turnover machine

DALLAS-EAGLES…Which is a bigger mess, the handling of the Jalen Hurts blood clot crisis, or Jerry Jones’ trades that have not fixed that defense.

WASHINGTON..Off week but nothing can fix all the problems Dan Quinn has at quarterback and wide receiver and running back.

JACKSONVILLE..What a start for Trevor Lawrence-Liam Coen and the offense heading into a bye week too.
