The Houston Texans (1-5) are set to host the Green Bay Packers (4-1) Sunday afternoon of Week 7 for a cross-conference matchup at NRG Stadium. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET. Below, we take a look at the early Week 7 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Packers suffered their first loss of the season Sunday, falling 38-10 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. QB Aaron Rodgers threw a pick-6 and nearly had a second, committing the first turnover of the season for Green Bay. The Packers had previously scored at least 30 points in each of their first four games.
The Texans nearly upset the Tennessee Titans on the road in Week 6, losing 42-36 in overtime. Houston is playing under an interim head coach after firing Bill O’Brien, and there was plenty of fight in Romeo Crennel’s squad against Tennessee. The Texans will need to be at their best against Rodgers and the Packers.
