Losses by the Bills and Raiders in Week 3 left just three undefeated teams in the NFL, and that's exactly where we stand heading into Week 7. The Chiefs were off in Week 5 but came back to easily handle the Chargers last week, while the Vikings took a 5-0 record into their Week 6 bye. The 49ers withstood a late charge by the Commanders on Monday night to become the league's only 6-0 team.
With all three teams in action in Week 7, possibilities range from all three getting to next week undefeated to all three taking their first loss on Sunday.

Dead heat rules apply, meaning that if more than one team ties, the odds for each team will be divided by the number of tied teams. For example, if the 49ers and Vikings finish in a tie, a $100 bet on the 49ers would return $100 instead of $200, while a $100 bet on the Vikings would return $150 instead of $300.

Current consensus odds set the money line at around -175, with the Falcons at around +145 to hand San Francisco its first loss. The midpoint between those two money lines puts the market's true odds of a 49ers win at about 61%. The Vikings come out of their bye hosting a Colts team that just lost at home to the previously winless Titans.
Current consensus odds have the Vikings at around -290 and the Colts at around +230. The Chiefs enter Week 7 as underdogs despite their undefeated record, traveling to Seattle to face the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks. Current consensus odds have the Chiefs at around +122 and the Seahawks about -145, putting the market's true odds of a Chiefs win at around 43%.
If the market is correct on those probabilities, here are the projected chances for one of those three teams to end the week as the only undefeated team: Here are the expectations that only two teams make it another week undefeated: Finally, there's an 18.9% chance all three teams win, and a 6.2% chace that all three teams lose.
