The Houston Texans take on the Green Bay Packers. For the defending AFC South champions, it is a chance to build confidence, even though a win would give them a 2-5 record and they would still be in third place in the division. For the Packers, a win would help them erase the memories of the 38-10 beatdown they suffered at the hands of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 6 at Raymond James Stadium. The loss to the Bucs would be seen as a one-off, not part of a trend.
The Texans will have to match quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ output.
