Player analysis
Player insights
A.J. Brown
NegativeUsage10:02
A.J. Brown had three drops last week and needs to play better football; his performance directly impacts Drake Maye's ability to execute the Patriots offense.
Insight pagePositiveRole25:30
A.J. Brown returned last week and dropped three passes, but the Bears are a better team with him healthy. He's back in the lineup for the Week 7 matchup against the Patriots.
Insight pageAaron Rodgers
PositiveProjection8:15
Cam Jordan praises Aaron Rodgers as a Hall of Famer whose presence elevates the entire Steelers offense; notes Rodgers' exceptional arm talent, ball placement, game IQ, and elusiveness make him dangerous despite being in his 40s; recent games show improved mobility with first-down conversions on scrambles.
Insight pagePositiveProjection24:06
Rodgers is on pace to throw 34 touchdowns this season; however, his 6.4 yards per attempt average suggests that touchdown pace may not materialize. The Packers offense is clicking at a good rate, though they weren't very good against the Bucs until the fourth quarter when they turned it on. Against the Saints defense, the Packers shouldn't need to do much to move the ball down the field.
Insight pageBaker Mayfield
PositiveInjury1:52
Baker Mayfield practiced for the second straight day with a white glove on his thumb after missing three games with a dislocated thumb. Mayfield expressed optimism about his recovery, saying 'it's been feeling slowly better and better' and that he is 'just doing the rehab process doing as much as possible each and every day and trying to recover as quick as possible.' The Buccaneers face Carolina on Sunday.
Insight pageBraelon Allen
PositiveRole23:03

Brashard Smith was limited in practice ahead of Sunday night's game for the Chiefs.
Insight pageBreece Hall
PositiveInjury23:21
Breece Hall, the Jets running back, is on his way back from a quad injury and was a limited participant in practice. He is expected to return for an AFC East game against the Dolphins.
Insight pageCaleb Williams
PositiveProjection6:30
Caleb Williams returned from hamstring injury last week and completed 30 passes; Cam Jordan expresses excitement about the Bears' offensive potential with Williams back, noting the team can now balance Ben Johnson's play-calling between their league-leading rushing attack (160+ yards per game) and passing game with quality targets.
Insight pagePositiveProjection10:30
Caleb Williams returned from hamstring injury and completed 30 passes in his last game; he's been performing well and the Bears were projected to win their division before the season started.
Insight pageD'Andre Swift
NegativeDepth Chart7:12
D'Andre Swift is the RB1 for the Bears in Week 7 against the Saints, with Roshan Johnson as RB2; Kyle Monangue remains out and will miss another game.

NegativeProjection8:31
Drake Maye has been hot in his last three games with ten touchdowns and a 10:1 TD-to-INT ratio; he's completed 64% of his passes and has been very good, though turnovers remain a concern against the Bears' strong ball-hawking defense.

The Eagles are 2-4 and need Barkley to help break a four-game losing streak. Eagles coach Tanner McKee noted that having a player of Barkley's caliber back is 'obviously a huge plus' for the team.
Insight pageTravis Kelce
NegativeInjury22:18
Travis Kelce was limited in practice ahead of Sunday night's game between the Chiefs and another team.
Insight pageTyler Huntley
NegativeRole1:49
Tyler Huntley has started the last two games for the Ravens in place of Lamar Jackson, with Baltimore going 1-1 in those contests. His role is expected to diminish if Jackson returns to health.
Insight pageZach Charbonnet

Episode Transcript
0:00This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. QB1 or QB1 more week.
0:04Coming up on the NFL Report, the latest on who's in and who's out for Week 7 of the most important position in sports.
0:11Meantime, don't forget Paris. We're going to go to France to sit down with Cam Jordan ahead of the Saints and the
0:18Steelers and a petit déjeuner on Sunday. And is Sunday night in Seattle still the game we thought it would be?
0:25All of that next on the NFL Report. We are presented to you by Nationwide.
0:30Hi there! My name is Andrew Siciliano from the home office.
0:33You love the cardiac kids behind me. It's fun.
0:36It's Week 7. We have a TNF preview coming up shortly.
0:39We also have Jordan interviewing Jordan in Paris. I'll explain what is news to me.
0:44However, our latest headlines right out of the gate.
0:47We tease the quarterback injuries. So let's do them first in Baltimore where it is looking more and more like Lamar Jackson
0:54could be back on the field Sunday against the Bengals.
0:57Now nothing is official, but we do know and you could see here that he was on the practice field limited, but
1:04there for the second day in a row. Lamar has missed the Ravens last two games.
1:09They are one and one without him and with Tyler Huntley.
1:12We can't say with certainty, however, the Baker Mayfield will be back Sunday for the Buccaneers after missing three games with a dislocated thumb.
1:20Mayfield practiced again today. Two straight days now with that white glove on his thumb.
1:25Bucs in Carolina Sunday. Yeah, feel good. Just improving.
1:27It's been a process for me. You know, never, never really missed time because injury.
1:32So not fun. You always want to be out there with your guys, but just doing the rehab process doing as much
1:39as possible each and every day and trying to recover as quick as possible and take it one day at a time.
1:46So it's been it's been feeling slowly better and better.
1:49But that's that's the frustrating part. Just it just takes time for an injury like that.
1:54Bucs can sure use Baker. The two and four Eagles definitely need Saquon Monday night to help break a four game losing streak.
2:01Barkley has missed the last two games with his hamstring injury against the Rams and hamstrings can be tricky.
2:07But Saquon for now tentatively is expected back on the field this week.
2:12Anytime you had a player like say to Saquon's caliber to your your team, you know, that's obviously a huge plus.
2:18You know, I like the backs in the room that we have.
2:22Obviously, you know, we've we've been beat up there as the seasons went.
2:26And I'm glad we've had the guys that we've had to be able to step in and go.
2:32But yeah, always anytime, you know, we'll see where we are with Saquon.
2:36But anytime that's a possibility. That's that's huge. It's obviously slimmer similar to Vicks defense, which is which is kind of funny
2:43because you're like, oh, yeah, they do that in practice, too.
2:46Or, you know, whatever. But, you know, they have some really good players out there.
2:51And I'm excited to to go up against it and spread the ball.
2:55Tanner McKee talking about Christian Parker, the Cowboys new D.C.
2:58who came from Philadelphia and the Cowboys are two and four.
3:02And how do we say this? I mean, the NFC is just not good.
3:06Two and four is the worst that any Dak Prescott team has begun.
3:10Brian Schottenheimer is a weird world is taking heat, but he's only one game back in the win column.
3:16I think it comes with the territory. I think, you know, some of it is deserved.
3:21You know, we got to play better. I got to coach better.
3:25And so when you grow up in a family that your dad's a head coach for over 20 something years, you understand
3:32that this is part of the the job description.
3:35No one likes it. I block out most of it.
3:38Some of it gets to me doing this job and having to speak to you guys as part of that.
3:44But at the same time, I've got strong shoulders.
3:47I know what a great coach I am. I know what this team is capable of.
3:52And that's what I focus on. Cowboys Eagles on Monday night.
3:55We got Packers Lions on Sunday afternoon. Let's hit Josh Jacobs here.
3:59That story back on the practice field again today.
4:02Yesterday we played you Matt LaFleur speaking of second chances after Jacobs pleaded no contest to two charges related to domestic violence.
4:09Tonight we have what Jacobs said yesterday after returning from the commissioner exempt list.
4:13I'm remorseful and sorry for putting this team in a situation.
4:17You know, sometimes you go through life situations occur and a four second, three second decision, you know, can alter your life, honestly.
4:24But with that being said, man, I'm still a human being, man.
4:28Still trying to learn, still trying to grow from the whole process.
4:32Actually learned a lot throughout this process legally and just just personally.
4:35Josh Jacobs expected to play. We got a game coming up tonight.
4:39Caleb Williams and your four and two Chicago Bears love the suit.
4:43Soldier field Drake may going bomber jacket. We could walk it in there four and two against four and two Christian Gonzalez.
4:50If you're wondering is up and active, he was a late demotion or late, late move to questionable with an illness.
4:56Let's get a primetime preview on this one. Our primetime preview is presented by nationwide NFL dot com.
5:02Lance Zerline love the T-shirt Lance with our primetime preview here today.
5:06It's a it's a battle of the number one overall pick in twenty twenty four.
5:11The number three overall pick. Drake may has been hot.
5:14The Patriots have turned things around. There's a lot on May's plate tonight.
5:18There is a lot on May's plate. You know, it's a battle of the two most heralded quarterbacks, obviously, from that draft.
5:25And I remember when it was Jaden Daniels and Bo Nix were were playing the best that rookie year from that class.
5:32And then all of a sudden Caleb had his moment and Drake made it to a Super Bowl.
5:37And then he got off to a terrible start, turned it over a ton.
5:42But man, the last three games, ten touchdowns, he's completed sixty four percent of his passes.
5:47He's been very, very good. Problem is the turnovers.
5:50You know, the Bears do a great job of taking the ball away.
5:54And so that's going to be something that Drake is really going to have to balance being aggressive with also understanding when he doesn't need to take chances.
6:02Now, his job gets a lot easier if A.J.
6:05Brown can catch the football. He had three drops last week and A.J.
6:09Brown has got to play better football. But I really do question whether or not the the the the Patriots can give
6:16him a little bit of a running game tonight to make his job a little bit a little easier against that Bears defense.
6:24Yeah. Drake may only one pick in that three game winning streak.
6:27The TD to INT ratio is ten to one.
6:30Caleb meantime came back last week off the hammy injury and all he did, Lance, was go ten for ten and then
6:37eventually ten for ten out of the eight and then eventually complete 30 passes.
6:42Is that good? Yeah, it's pretty good. And, you know, I'm really excited.
6:46I think this Bears team before the year started, I had this Bears team winning that division.
6:51I know they've got a very tough they've got a very tough schedule, but I think the Bears are that team just
6:58waiting to make that next step up into Super Bowl caliber team.
7:02And I'm really excited to see who the Bears are with Caleb Williams.
7:06I think the Bears are excited to see who they are with Caleb Williams.
7:10The running game is the best in football right now.
7:13They average over 160 yards a game. And, you know, part of that was because they needed to run the football when he was out.
7:21But now that he's back, Ben Johnson going to be able to balance pass and run.
7:26We know they can run it. Now we're getting Caleb mixed in with some really good targets.
7:32The most creative play caller in all of football.
7:34I'm excited to see who the Bears are now moving forward.
7:38And I think we're about to see a Bears team that may be able to stake a claim to being one of
7:45the top two there in the entire NFC. You mentioned that run game.
7:49Still no Kyle Madung guy. He's going to miss another game.
7:52It is Roshan Johnson RB2 tonight behind Yandre Swift.
7:55And real quick, I said nice shirt. I'm maintaining eye contact here.
7:59My monitor is actually down. When we when we spoke earlier, Lance had it had a cool Smith's T-shirt on.
8:05All right, let's get into the game in France.
8:08France is the eighth country in which the NFL will play an international series game.
8:13It's the Saints. It's the Steelers. It's Sunday morning.
8:16It's Greg Rosenthal and Jordan Roderigue now with Cam Jordan.
8:19I think they're strong. Anytime you have a Hall of Fame quarterback that makes the entire O-line better anyways.
8:25So I love when we talk about offensive line, but I'm like, there's Aaron Rodgers back there.
8:30Like, they're going to be just fine regardless. You could put little cones in front of them and he's still going to be a Hall of Fame quarterback.
8:39So you see the throws he makes. You see the way he speeds up his timing, the way he commands his offense.
8:46I mean, you saw it was like two games ago when him and his OC were sort of getting into it.
8:52He's like, let me run it. And he ran it and there's a reason why he's a Hall of Famer.
8:59Another Cal guy. You know, cerebral. You going to get after him?
9:02Absolutely. Yeah. The plan is, you know, you got guys like Chase Young and Carl Granderson.
9:08You talk about, you know, Braden as well as Godchow.
9:11I think we've got a formidable front. You know, this is all within reason and with the caveat that he is, you
9:18know, in his 40s at this point. But... They said LeBron's in his 40s too.
9:22He's out here dropping buckets. No, but I mean last couple games he's moving better.
9:27Like you see him picking up a couple first downs with his legs a couple weeks ago.
9:32I mean, do you think he's faster somehow this year?
9:36No. Nobody's ever been like, man, he's a burner.
9:38But Aaron Rodgers is definitely elusive as well as, you know, he's always been quick.
9:43So, you pair that up with his IQ for the game and that's what makes him scary as well as a Hall of Famer.
9:51He's always had a tremendous arm talent and the ability to just put ball placement.
9:55So, it's going to be up to the entire defense to try and put a hold on him.
10:01Well, the Saints have the advantage. They have been here all week.
10:05So, you got the fun stuff out of the way.
10:08Got the fun stuff out of the way. They're going to be behind.
10:12Come on. They've got Aaron Rodgers and Cam Hayward.
10:15Cam Hayward doesn't like fun. TJ Watt, have you?
10:18You've never seen them in an off season? I've never seen TJ Watt smile, matter of fact.
10:23Exactly. That's what I'm saying. They're not built for having fun.
10:27So, they'll be just fine. You can fly them in Saturday.
10:30TJ Watt. Yeah, Cam's going to sleep the whole time anyways.
10:33And, you know, like, does he practice anymore? That's fair.
10:37I'll let you guys figure that one out. Low on the list of guys that I personally probably would want to go out with.
10:44TJ Watt and Aaron Rodgers. I don't know. They wouldn't want to go out with me.
10:49I probably wouldn't go out with Aaron Rodgers. I feel like you're going to learn a lot of conspiracy theories now.
10:56And with that, we appreciate Cam Jordan. Thank you as always.
10:59Appreciate you guys. Thank you, Cam. Ben Benson seemingly turning up the heat on this team, winning now.
11:05What do you think on this one? Let me talk about Mickey for a second.
11:10He is the longest-tenured general manager in the NFL by a long stretch, eight more years than John Schneider, who's next up in Seattle.
11:17He's been doing it a long time. Here's the problem.
11:20He's 29 and 45 in his last four and a half seasons, counting this year.
11:25Four of the last five seasons, counting this year, the two and four record, have been losing seasons for Mickey.
11:31And Chris Ballard was just fired by the Indianapolis Colts.
11:34So anytime that happens, you know, people start to perk up in buildings about whether or not their jobs could be on the line.
11:42When we turn to Aaron Rodgers, they talked a lot about Aaron Rodgers.
11:46He's been terrific. He's on pace right now to throw 34 touchdowns this year.
11:51Now, that's his pace. He's still only averaging 6.4 yards per attempt.
11:54So I feel like that's kind of, those numbers are a little bit funny.
11:59I'm not sure if we're going to see that many touchdowns.
12:02But clearly, Rodgers and that offense are clicking at a pretty good rate.
12:06They weren't very good against the Bucs until they needed to be there in the fourth quarter and they turned it on.
12:13But against the Saints defense, I don't know that they have to do a whole lot to be able to move the ball down the field.
12:21And again, that is the early morning game coming up 930 Eastern on Sunday.
12:26Thank you, Lance. Lance is coming right back, by the way.
12:29What if I told you there is yet another Rams injury that they may have to overcome this week?
12:35But they have done this before. How bad is it in LA that's straight ahead on the NFL report?
12:41It really is a great week seven schedule and it opens with a great game at Soldier Field.
12:47Got a couple of four and two teams. A.J.
12:50Brown came back last week, as Lance had said earlier, dropped three passes.
12:54But they're a better team with them. Better team with Roma Dunze healthy as well for Caleb Williams.
12:59Patriots, Bears slightly after eight o'clock Eastern. Seven local, of course, at Soldier Field, Chicago.
13:04Here is that long list of really good games on Sunday.
13:08Now, maybe not the headliner, but it's interesting for me.
13:11Can we focus on the one there bottom left?
13:14That's the Rams and the Raiders there at Allegiant Stadium in Vegas.
13:17And the Rams, well, I they got to start winning.
13:21They are two and four. Some think their season is over.
13:24I think that is nonsense. Back in 2024, they opened one and four.
13:28They made the playoffs in 2023. They started two and three and they made the playoffs.
13:33Matthew Stafford looking to start that turnaround this Sunday.
13:36Every year is different. Every game is different. You know, you can't sit there and go because we did X, we're going to do Y.
13:44But we obviously know what it takes to win football games.
13:47We have enough guys on this roster that know what it takes to win.
13:52And, you know, that starts today, right? We can't sit there and look big picture and go, okay, we have X amount of games left.
14:00These guys are doing that, whatever. Like that's not the mindset of all around here.
14:04It's how can we be as good as we can day in and day out?
14:09How can we go compete every single day that so that Sunday when we turn the tape on, we're proud of how
14:16we competed, how we played, how we went about our business and live with the results.
14:21And I think that's the mindset of this group.
14:24You know, and if we do that, I think we're going to like the results more often than we don't.
14:30Okay, all of that is great. But what if I told you now Puga Naku is banged up?
14:36He's officially limited today. He was on the practice field, but then he left early on Thursday with a calf injury.
14:42Remember, Devontae Adams is out hammy. Terrence Ferguson isn't back yet, a tight end.
14:47Lance, you got the entire D line banged up.
14:50Yeah, they still have McVay. They still have obviously Aaron Donald and Matthew Stafford.
14:54All that is great. As we list your top three most intriguing games, Rams Raiders is number three.
15:00How does the Puga would be injury change things here for you?
15:03Well, it changed it a great deal. But I still think that when you look at how the Rams can run the
15:10football with two headed monster, you know, at the running back spot, and then you look at how the Raiders defend.
15:17I think you still have a chance to get out there and get the W.
15:22The Raiders are a great story to start the season off 3-0, but they've lost their last three.
15:27They're allowing 36 points a game in those three.
15:30And I'm one of those guys that always say, yeah, but this is still the Rams.
15:35It's still the Rams. Is it really still the Rams?
15:38That's what makes this intriguing. They're 27th in terms of sacks, 26th against the Rush.
15:43Now the Raiders don't run it well. They're 30th in the league against, you know, in terms of running the football.
15:50But this is one where you feel like the good team should progress to the mean.
15:55We should see them play good football like we saw the Texans do last week.
15:59Another team that got off to a bad start.
16:02So I'm expecting the Rams offense to push it down the field consistently against the Raiders.
16:07And at some point, the Rams defense has to start playing Rams defense.
16:11It's been disappointing. I didn't sign up for Aaron Donald to come back for this.
16:16As a football watcher, I need more from the defense.
16:19That's just me being selfish. That's what I need.
16:22But I did sign up for a great AFC North battle week seven, the AFC North like the NFC North, the entire division at 500 or better.
16:31You got Joe Burrow and the Bengals, potentially Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.
16:35They split last year, Lance, with the road team winning each game.
16:38This is your number two most intriguing matchup. You know, I'll tell you why.
16:43And I'll do respect to the Browns memorabilia in your background.
16:46But I think everyone's looking at this game and saying, OK, Steelers and Browns.
16:51But really, this is the game. This is the one.
16:54Whoever wins this one is going to come out and that's going to be the team.
16:59But the fact is, you know, Lamar Jackson is seven and two against Joe Burrow.
17:04Joe Burrow, when he plays the Ravens, he either goes way off with 500 and 400 yard games or they really hold them.
17:11They hold them down. He's four and seven in his 11 games against the Ravens.
17:16But, you know, in this matchup, if Lamar goes, I think I have to like the Ravens.
17:21They've done a great job of running the football and they don't turn it over.
17:26Those are the two things that you have to do to win.
17:29You want to hear Joe Burrow on Jesse Minter's defense?
17:33Let's roll that. This scheme is different in some ways, but in a lot of ways it's similar as well.
17:39They're going to put their playmakers in position to make big plays.
17:43And they have some really good playmakers. And we have to limit their opportunities to affect the game and take care of
17:50the football and play smart and take our explosives when they come.
17:53Lance, your thoughts? Well, I mean, you know, for Joe, like I said previously, he's been feast or famine.
17:59And this is going to be a situation where they're going to watch film and get ready, but he's going to have
18:06something a little different dialed up for Joe Burrow.
18:09So this is really fascinating to me because I want to see which Joe Burrow shows up.
18:14Is it going to be the guy who bombs out with four or 500 yards and, you know, high 300 yards, three touchdowns?
18:22Or is this going to be one of those games where it's a bunch of Derrick Henry, it's a bunch of Lamar
18:29Jackson extending, you know, third downs with his legs and moving the chains.
18:33And then the Ravens just really taking the air out of the ball.
18:37Is that what it's going to be? We do know this.
18:40Historically, these two guys have gotten into some real shootouts from a points per game standpoint.
18:45So when they get together, there's always a good chance that we're going to have a fun, fun matchup with a lot of points.
18:53Absolutely. Also fun on Sunday night, NBC football night in America, the Chiefs, they are undefeated.
18:58Sam Darnold and the Seahawks, and he's been a turnover machine of late, three and three.
19:03You know, the couple of picks that I threw, just, you know, when that time clock starts to go off and, you
19:10know, just being careful with the football. And sometimes that's throwing the ball away.
19:14And other times that's knowing, you know, just when I'm kind of under pressure and even maybe even taking a sack in those situations.
19:22So I think just understanding, you know, or not understanding, but being aware of the situation and, you know, not making a
19:29bad play worse is kind of the goal moving forward.
19:32But I'm just going to continue to play decisive and try to get the ball out.
19:37When the schedule came out back in May, Lance, you circle this one.
19:41It's great. Now when the Chiefs get out undefeated, you circle this one.
19:45It's great. But are the Seahawks still great? Where do you come down on this game?
19:50Yeah, I feel like Laramie Tunsil with all these false starts I've had on this segment.
19:55But I will say this. I come down. Here's where I come down on this one.
20:00We know it's going to be a great offense versus a great defense.
20:04Mike McDonald versus Andy Reid is going to be terrific.
20:07Pat Mahomes, we're excited about it. The numbers align and match up.
20:11The real problem here is Sam Darnold. As you know, you mentioned his turnovers and then he just talked about not making a bad play worse.
20:19I'm afraid that's who he's been for much of his career.
20:23And last year he had that incredible run in the playoffs.
20:26But against Steve Spagnuolo's defense, it's really tough to get right against Steve Spagnuolo and that defense.
20:32And unless you're really able to run the ball and protect Sam Darnold, unless you're able to, and when I say protect,
20:39I mean literally protect them also from a sack standpoint, you really have problems.
20:43They turn it over a lot. They get sacked a lot.
20:46Steve Spagnuolo can change the pictures on you after the snap and really cause confusions for quarterbacks.
20:52He's smart with where he brings blitzes and pressure points from.
20:55So, you know, this is on paper. This is a, this is a really fun matchups, but at some point Seattle's offense has to come to the party.
21:04That's going to be the real key here. I think from a number standpoint, it really matches up well if Seattle can have a good showing offensively.
21:13Yeah. And a good showing offensively means, and this team has had an issue this year, running the football.
21:18Well, there is good news. There is help on the way.
21:22Zach Charbonnet right at the end of that window, the 21 day window to activate him has been activated.
21:28So there's a good chance. He is back on the field coming back from that bad knee injury a year ago.
21:35Thank you, Lance Zerline. Appreciate you. No false starts.

22:23Jalen Moore and Rashi Rice did not practice for the Chiefs for rice.
22:27It is a hammy injury, and this is maybe even more significant tackle.
22:32Josh Simmons left tackle. Josh Simmons is going on injured reserve.
22:35It is a bulging disc in his back. Simmons had initially complained of a calf injury.
22:40They figured out it was actually a disc injury.
22:43Not good. Also not good in Seattle. We told you about Charbonnet.
22:47Elijah Arroyo going the other direction shoulder surgery and the tight end is going to miss the rest of the season.
22:53Braylon Allen has done a good job for the Jets in the backfield at a big hundred yard game a couple of weeks ago.
23:01But good news. Brees Hall is on his way back.
23:04Brees Hall, the Jets running back a limited participant today in Florham Park.
23:08He has a quad injury as the Jets get ready for an AFC East game with the Dolphins coming to town.
23:15And we get ready for a Thursday night game, a fantastic one to open up week number seven.
23:20The Bears were on the road in their first game last week after losing the legendary Mike Ditka.
23:26So this is their first game at home after the Hall of Famer died.
23:30So this is on the sideline forever 89. That's cool.
23:33Also cool what they're giving away today when you walk into Soldier Field.

23:58I'm sorry, the St. Louis Rams. Get that right, Andrew.
24:01That is Hall of Famer Marshall Falk on one side of the picture and Ross Tucker.
24:06What a booth that was. We all donned our fake Jeff Fisher mustaches.
24:10Who's the other guy? That's Brian Killingsworth, Rams marketing executive.
24:13It was his idea for the fake mustaches. I think it was.
24:17Whatever. I need a fake mustache from Chicago. Somebody save me one.
24:21We'll see you next week, everybody. Enjoy week seven.
