Week 7 NFL grades: Ravens get “A+” for rolling over Buccaneers, Cardinals get “B” for beating Chargers

Welcome to Week 7 Classes!

The NFL is typically a high-scoring league, but if you’re a fan of the Dolphins, Giants or Browns, you probably haven’t noticed that this season. The Dolphins scored just 10 points in their loss to the Colts and have now scored 15 points or fewer in five straight games for the first time since 2007.

The Giants didn’t score a single touchdown against the Eagles and have now scored seven points or fewer in consecutive games for the first time since 2022. As for the Browns, they only scored 14 points on Sunday, meaning they are still the only team in the NFL that has yet to score 20 points this season.

How did these three teams perform this week?

I’m glad you asked. Let’s look at the grades for each team from Week 7, starting with Monday’s doubleheader.
