It was blowout central throughout the entire league, with just a few competitive games sprinkled in.
Let's see if we can survey the carnage from week 7:
Bengals dominated the Bears, 45-10
Packers humiliated the Browns, 31-3
Chargers obliterated the Chiefs, 37-7
Colts dismantled the Rams, 42-6
Patriots blew back the Bucs, 35-7
Jets crushed the Raiders, 38-0
and the "competitive blowouts":
Cowboys strangled the Falcons, 37-21 (only a late TD in the 4th kept Atlanta's final score tally seem somewhat respectable in the loss)
Texans stomped on the 49ers, 24-21 (but... nearly lost it late with the insertion of Alex Smith and his 3 TDs to TE Davis)
New Orleans rallies 40+ pts in less than 30 min. to stun the Dolphins, 46-34.
