Top 10 Most Surprising NFL Teams of Week 7 (2020)

Remember when we thought the Patriots would be good this year? Boy, were we wrong. This is the part where they get exposed as the frauds they truly are. Cam Newton has looked absolutely horrid these past few weeks. It got so bad he threw three interceptions and looked like he was forcing turnovers. He was benched for Jarrett Stidham - yes, it was that bad. They couldn't do anything on offense, and their defense was gashed repeatedly by the 49ers' offense.

New England just suffered their worst home loss in 20 years. Adding even further insult to injury, they're sitting at 2-4 and 3rd in the division. They have Buffalo next, so it's not like things get any easier. They still play the Jets twice, but still. The last time it was this bad of a blowout at home, Bill Belichick wasn't even their coach. To quote Dennis Green, "They are who we thought they were!"

Say what you want about Dallas being injured with no O-line, no Dak, and a horrid defense. You cannot tell me that you saw this coming. Sure, Washington might have won, but to dominate Dallas like that definitely caught me off guard. This was a game that was over by halftime.

Dallas was held to just a field goal and run out of the stadium by Kyle Allen, of all quarterbacks, and Antonio Gibson as well. If you would've told me that Washington would beat the hell out of Dallas like that, I wouldn't have believed you, but here we are.

The 49ers made quite the statement in Jimmy Garoppolo's homecoming game back to New England. San Francisco showed no mercy as they torched the Pats' allegedly "good" defense and took anything of value. They devoured Cam Newton so badly they had to replace him.

Oh, and Patriots, say hello to the dynamic force of Jeff Wilson. What's even more insane is they're a team banged up with injuries, and they still did that. In other words, don't underestimate San Francisco because they still have some fight left in them.

LOL Falcons, you guys really do find amazing ways to lose games, don't you? What was a de facto Tank Bowl was more of a Choke Bowl, as both teams desperately tried to hand the other side the win. The Falcons find themselves down 16-14 and near the end zone. All Todd Gurley has to do is not score so they can run the clock out. Instead, he scores and gives the Lions a chance to come back.

The choking memes continue, as Atlanta has now choked away their last three games. It's almost not surprising, but they make the list because they really lose in amazing ways every single week.

The Steelers dominated the Titans during what was a shootout of undefeated teams. Pittsburgh was up 27-7 at one point before Derrick Henry led the Titans on a furious comeback. The Steelers managed to do just enough to win and got off the hook with a lucky win.

I mean it when I say they got lucky after nearly blowing a 20-point lead. Luckily for the Steelers faithful, they didn't pull a Falcons.

Good job, Lions. You guys get to enjoy a win as Atlanta once again chokes in humiliating fashion. Stafford led a game-winning drive to pad his stats and make him look good. To me, Detroit didn't win this game. They were merely gifted a golden opportunity, and they just happened to pounce on it.

Now enjoy having Stafford and Patricia around for three more years because you still think you're competitive.

Tennessee may have lost, but give them props. This game was set to be a blowout, but Derrick Henry and Ryan Tannehill had other plans. The fact that they made this a game is, in itself, surprising. In fact, they had a shot to tie it if Gostkowski didn't miss a clutch field goal.

The Browns make the list because they were like a tale of two halves. You had first-half Baker, who looked horrible - like God-awful. Then he had an impressive turnaround in the second half, and they actually managed to pull this one off at the end.

The Eagles are injured to hell and back. But somehow, some way, they managed to do just enough to get by with a win. It was such a horrible game, aided by Danny Dimes turning the ball over. That 80-yard tripping touchdown run sums things up perfectly.
