Around the NFL: No Kenneth Walker III Revenge Game, Vikings Remain Unbeaten, More

We’ve got one more Week 7 game tonight. Still, with neither the Cowboys nor the Eagles in the unbeaten conversation, the 49ers losing to the Falcons on Sunday afternoon, and the Chiefs falling to the Seahawks last night, the league’s last unbeaten team heading into Week 8 is, as you all expected, the Minnesota Vikings.

The Kenneth Walker III revenge game wasn’t on Sunday night, as the Seahawks had answers for the league’s second-leading rusher, limiting Walker to 36 yards on 14 carries. Last night was Walker’s first trip to Seattle since he was named the Super Bowl MVP last February before departing for Kansas City in free agency. Seattle’s defense held Walker, Patrick Mahomes, and the Chiefs to just 3 points on Sunday, marking only the second time a Mahomes-led Chiefs team has been held to that many points in his career, and the first time since 2021. The Chiefs defense had no answers for Seattle’s biggest weapon, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who caught nine passes for 150 yards and a touchdown. Quarterback Sam Darnold completed 20-of-28 passes for 257 yards and a touchdown to JSN as Seattle beat the Chiefs 20-3.

The Chiefs fall to 5-1 and take on the Broncos next week with first place in the AFC West on the line. That game leaves the Vikings as the last unbeaten team at 6-0. You can call the Vikings’ start fluky if you’d like; I have. They’ve won two games without even scoring a touchdown, and four of their six wins have come against teams with a 7-20 combined record. The Vikings will face the Lions next week, then play the Bills, Packers, and 49ers. So Minnesota’s tests are coming. Still, at 6-0, they can go 5-6 the rest of the way and finish 11-6, which is where The Athletic’s playoff simulator has them pegged. Over seven weeks, they have an 88 percent chance to make the playoffs and a 25 percent chance to finish atop the NFC. Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray (1) throws a pass during a preseason opening game between the New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings on Saturday, Aug. 15, 2026, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. On the other end of the spectrum, a Dolphins victory over the Jets on Sunday left the Los Angeles Chargers as the league’s lone winless team at 0-6. The Chargers had a bye this week, and things don’t get any easier on the other side of it, with a matchup with the Rams next Sunday followed by games against the Texans and Ravens. Former Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy made his first start with the New York Giants on Sunday, beating the Texans 27-21. McCarthy completed 20-of-28 for 252 yards, with no touchdowns or interceptions. The Giants got big performances on the ground (an area they’ve struggled recently), with Cam Skattebo rushing for 124 yards and a touchdown, and former Texan Devin Singletary broke off a game-winning 30-yard touchdown in overtime to seal the deal. Malik Nabers did the heavy lifting in the receiving game, catching 7 passes for 111 yards. Despite Jaxson Dart’s season-ending injury and issues on the ground, the Giants are 4-2-1 after seven weeks and lead the NFC East. Things are getting ugly in Indy. After losing to the Vikings on Sunday to fall to 2-5, running back Jonathan Taylor fielded questions about his wife openly discussing trade rumors on social media. “We’re in a situation that we’ve never been in before … This may be the first time we may not be on the same team, and we might get traded,” Taylor’s wife, Ayanna, said over the weekend. With the GM already fired and the record at 2-5, it feels like we’re close to a Colts fire sale, if we’re not already there. This comes less than a year after former GM Chris Ballard sent two first-rounders and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell to the New York Jets for cornerback Sauce Gardner, pushing all his chips in with Indianapolis 7-2 at the time. Daniel Jones was playing the best football of his career, but a fractured left fibula and ruptured right Achilles ended that dream for the Colts, and Indy has been 3-12 since then.

Week 7 concludes tonight when the Eagles and Cowboys meet on Monday Night Football, with both teams seemingly fighting for their season already, entering the game with identical 2-4 records.
