Week 7 of the 2025 NFL season is wrapping up with another Monday Night Football doubleheader. Following an early matchup between the Buccaneers and the Lions, the Texans and Seahawks will close things out with a late kickoff.
After a rough 0-3 start, the Houston Texans are currently 2-3 and riding a two-game winning streak (with victories over the Ravens and Titans) into tonight’s matchup. They’re also coming into tonight’s game off a bye week. In their most recent win, against the Ravens, the Texans scored a season-high 44 points.
In a stacked NFC West, the Seattle Seahawks’ 4-2 record puts them at third in the division, but the team and quarterback Sam Darnold currently lead the NFL with 6.3 yards per play in 2025.
