putting your queen at e7 violates a mojor rule of thumb in chess, never make it so that your queen can get pinned to your king, i think that 7... Qb6 give black the best odd (very small), though he prety much lost the game when he took his queen out to begin with

It depends how you bring your queen out.  I often bring her out on my 2nd move when using the scandinavian defense.
