Last-Minute Predictions for NFL Week 7 - Bleacher Report

Sunday features two AFC East matchups, with the New York Jets hosting the New England Patriots and the Miami Dolphins welcoming Buffalo.

Expect the Patriots and Dolphins to win, setting up a huge clash in Week 8 between the teams in Foxborough. 

When the Jets and Patriots met in Week 2, New England's passing attack was totally out of sync. Quarterback Tom Brady wasn't on the same page with his young receivers, and Gang Green nearly pulled off the upset.

Fast-forward a few weeks later, and the Patriots aerial assault is finally clicking, and it appears as if star tight end Rob Gronkowski will make his season debut. That will be too much for the Jets, who will put up a valiant effort but ultimately fall to the better team.

In Miami, expect the Dolphins pass rush to harass Bills quarterback Thad Lewis all game. The Dolphins had an extra week to prepare for this game coming off the bye, and quarterback Ryan Tannehill will have success throwing the ball to receiver Mike Wallace. Miami will win by double digits.

That means that next Sunday, it'll be the 4-2 Dolphins at the 6-1 Patriots at Gillette Stadium.
