The Packers came out strong and held a 21-0 lead at halftime and went on to win the game 35-20 for their 5th win of the season. Their record is now 5-1, good for second-best in the NFL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"736\" height=\"485\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gbpf\/files\/2020\/10\/Davante-Adams-vs-Texans.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gbpf\/files\/2020\/10\/Davante-Adams-vs-Texans.jpg 736w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gbpf\/files\/2020\/10\/Davante-Adams-vs-Texans-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The top fantasy performers for the Pack were Davante Adams, Aaron Rodgers, and Jamaal Williams who was the lead back with Aaron Jones sidelined with a mild calf strain. I think holding Jones out of this matchup was all strategy to get him fully healthy because we didn&#8217;t really need him to get this win against the underperforming Texans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Davante Adams led the way for the Packers with 13 catches, 196 yards and 2 touchdowns, good for 47.6 fantasy points, even better than his week 1 performance against the Vikings which earned him 43.6 fantasy points. With Adams back and looking fully healthy he should continue to flourish in the next coming weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aaron Rodgers was obviously a big part of this win. He went 23\/34 through the air with 283 passing yards and 4 touchdowns and zero interceptions on the day. This performance granted him 39 fantasy points. Just another great performance by Rodgers who has a legitimate chance to win MVP this year, definitely being in the top 3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jamaal Williams brought the energy for the Packers with week with Aaron Jones sidelined. He had 19 rushing attempts for 77 yards and a touchdown do go along with 4 catches for 37 yards. A great performance gave him 21.4 fantasy points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a brutal and embarrassing loss to the Buccaneers last week after the bye week, the Packers faced the 1 win Texans in week 7.
