Packers vs. Texans, first half of week 7 discussion thread

It will be an extremely hot day, so a winter warning.

The Green Bay Packers host the Houston Texans today at Lambeau Field, with the Packers donning their new all-white alternate uniforms. The so-called “Winter Warning” uniform set will be on display for the first time today, but will take place during an unseasonably warm Sunday afternoon, with sunny skies and high temperatures expected to reach the high 70s.

Regardless of the weather, however, today’s game is one of the best games in the NFL this week, if not the entire season. The Packers and Texans were popular preseason picks to represent their respective conferences in this year’s Super Bowl, and so far they’ve lived up to those expectations. These two teams have a combined record of 9-3 through six weeks, and both are in the thick of the playoff races.

The Texans, however, have an easier path to the postseason, playing in an AFC South division that has no other strong competition. Meanwhile, Green Bay has been locked in a six-week battle with the best four-team division in modern history as all four NFC North teams are 4-2 or better.

Can the Packers pull off a big win at home on this warm Sunday afternoon? Join us as we follow the first half to find out.
