Official Texans vs. Packers Game Thread, 10/25/2020

The 4-1 Green Bay Packers come to NRG this Sunday to take on the 1-5 Texans in an early game on FOX. The Texans are coming of a 42-36 road loss to the Titans, the Packers are coming off their first loss, 38-10 to the Buccaneers on the road. In addition to QB Aaron Rogers, look for RB Aaron Jones and receivers Davante Adams and Allen Lazard. TE Robert Tonyan has 5 TDs. The Texans defense needs to find an identity and fast.

The Texans are 1-3 all time vs. the Packers. The two last met in December 2016 with the Pack winning 21-13 in Green Bay.

Aaron Rogers and the Packers are a team that is unlikely to lose two in a row. I've got it:

Fairbairn misses a 41-yard FG and the Packers have 2+ minutes left in the half.

Still 14-0 Packers.

It’s pretty hilarious how terrible the Texans are at virtually every aspect of playing football.

I wonder what the season ticket waiting list looks like these days.
