Green Bay Packers at Houston Texans
Time: 8:20 PM (ET) | Sunday
Network: NBC
For the NBC “Football America” game of the week, we see the undefeated Houston Texans host the 2-3 Green Bay Packers. Houston is coming off their Monday Night Football scrimmage game against the Jets that was close as they were looking ahead to this game against the Packers. Green Bay lost last week to the Colts where Andrew Luck just obliterated their defense throwing for over 360 yards and 2 TD’s.
The smart pick is obviously to go with Houston as we’re not sure how hungry Green Bay is this year in loaded NFC North where it appears the Vikings and Bears will look to be consistent in hopes for a playoff bid. Expect the Packers to go all out for this game to jump back .500 with the end result being Matt Schaub and the Texans winning in a close one.
