NFL Week 7: Eagles in Crisis, Titans Firings and 49ers Seek Reinforcements

NFL Week 7 Analysis: Rumors, Changes, and Outlook

Week 7 of the 2025 NFL season is here, and experts Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano have been in contact with sources across the league to get the latest news and trends on key situations.

Concern in Philadelphia? The Eagles’ Offense Under the Microscope

This week, analysts explored the situation of the Eagles’ attack, the current champions. Is there panic in Philadelphia? Will the aerial game improve its performance? The Eagles’ offense is not dominating the ground game as it did the previous year.

There are problems, and they must be solved. It’s easy to fall into the idea of “locker room tension”, but I’ve really never had the feeling that the Eagles players have personal problems with each other. Everyone wants to improve, and if there is tension, it’s because of the two consecutive defeats and the urgency that everyone feels to change the situation.

Defensive tackle Lane Johnson pointed out that the offense feels predictable. The key could be Barkley, as he needs to return to his 2024 level. The Eagles have a bye week in Week 9, and before that, they will face the Vikings and the Giants.

Titans: Callahan’s Dismissal and the Team’s Future

The firing of Titans coach Brian Callahan was also analyzed. Why was this decision made now, and what can we expect from Tennessee’s coaching search? The franchise appears to be in a transition phase, with an eye on the development of Cam Ward and the construction of a new stadium that will open in 2027.

The Titans could be active in the transfer market, seeking draft capital to rebuild the team. Players like Arden Key, Roger McCreary, and Chig Okonkwo could be on the radar. Jeffery Simmons’ situation is also key.

49ers: Trade Market Moves?

The 49ers, with several injuries, could seek reinforcements in the trade market. Trey Hendrickson is mentioned as an ideal option for the defense, although the Bengals have no plans to trade him. Other potential targets include Rashan Gary, Jaelan Phillips, Bradley Chubb, Jermaine Johnson, Will McDonald IV, and Arden Key. Fred Warner’s injury leaves a big void in the middle of the defense. The 49ers could seek reinforcements in all three lines of the defense, prioritizing help at the defensive end position. The situation of the receivers is also a focus of attention, with possible offensive additions.

Players to Consider for a Transfer

Several players who could be traded before the deadline are mentioned. Breece Hall of the Jets is a name that comes up frequently. Other players include Jerome Ford of the Browns and Jaylen Wright of Miami. Keaton Mitchell from the Ravens could also be an option, with Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz having experience in Baltimore.

Other Highlights

The analysis also includes other important points. The Chiefs, for example, could have found an unexpected solution in Jaylon Moore, demonstrating that not all free agent signings need to be spectacular. The Ravens, with a difficult start to the season, could be active in the transfer market. Lamar Jackson’s situation and the decisions that are made in the coming weeks will be crucial. Finally, the situation of coach John Harbaugh is addressed, who, despite the poor results, does not seem to be in danger of losing his position.
