00:00A great inter-conference game in Lambeau between the Packers and the Texans.

00:08Green Bay, three and a half point home favorite.

00:10Houston does cover, but the Packers walk it off with new kicker, Brandon McManus, delivering

00:17the game-winning field goal as time expires at Lambeau.

00:21Green Bay wins 24 to 22.

00:25The 45-yard field goal for McManus, for Green Bay, gives the Packers their fifth win of

00:31this season.

00:32Green Bay, D-R-S, now five and two, despite uneven play out of Jordan Love yesterday.

00:38Yeah, here's the problem, right, because I do love the gunslinger mentality, almost like

00:43Brett Favre.

00:44Like, yeah, I'll throw in the tight window, I'll throw interceptions, but I'll throw touchdowns

00:46as well.

00:47He finishes with two 20 and three touchdown passes, which you like.

00:50The ground game was decent.

00:51Jacobs, 12 carries for 76 yards.

00:53But how is this even possible, that the Houston Texans had the lead late in this game, when

00:56CJ Stratton was 10 of 21 for 86 yards and no touchdown passes?

01:00Now, mixing 25 carries, 115, that's not really the recipe that the Houston Texans like to

01:04use.

01:05It's usually electricity at the wide receiver position, where their best wide receiver was

01:09Diggs at 5 of 23 yesterday.

01:12The leader was one catch 28 yards for Scholten.

01:15He was a tight end.

01:16I almost want to take away from this game, I like the Green Bay Packers.

01:19I expect them to be final 14, let's just say, in the NFC, when it's all said and done,

01:23with a legitimate chance to go to the Super Bowl.

01:25But I come away from this game with the Texans going like, we can hang around and beat one

01:29of the best teams in football, in their own building.

01:32We don't have our A game.

01:33Let's wait till Nico Collins comes back in a couple weeks.

01:35Let's continue to play some pretty good defense here and hold on.

01:38I actually took away a lot from the Texans' loss, the same way I took away what I expected

01:42Green Bay to win the game.

01:43They won the game, and now they sit at 5 and 2.
