Texans vs. Packers
What happens when the Packers get upset by the Cardinals, and the Texans take care of business against Drake Maye and the Patriots?
The Texans could become favorites despite being on the road against the Packers. So far, Jordan Love hasn’t thrown one game with at least a 60% completion percentage. The receiver core, minus Jayden Reed, really hasn’t stepped up, either. There’s drama with Romeo Doubs, and Christian Watson is hurt again. Meanwhile, Dontayvion Wicks isn’t grabbing contested balls. The Packers can find ways to win games, but it’ll be harder if this offense does not work as it should.
Meanwhile, the Texans just knocked off the Bills. Losing Nico Collins will hurt, but there are enough weapons in the receiver room for the Texans to overcome. They’ll dominate the Patriots, and that will be enough to make this game closer to a pick-em.
Bet: Texans ML (+112)
