Indianapolis Colts (3-2) vs. Green Bay Packers (3-3) NFL Betting Odds: In what used to be a historic quarterback showdown between Peyton Manning and Brett Favre, its now just a battle between two inconsistent teams, in the Indianapolis Colts and the Green Bay Packers. Going into Week 7, the Packers’ first-year starter, QB Aaron Rogers (124-193, 1482), has more pass attempts, completions, and yards than the great Peyton Manning (115-182, 1302). However, the Colts did have a bye in Week 4, while the Packers will get theirs in Week 8.  This game has a scheduled opening kickoff of just after 4:15 PM on the east (1:15 PM PT), and it can be seen live from historic Lambeau Field, on CBS/HD. In this NFL Week 7, Odds-makers at LooseLines.com seem to be slightly leaning in favor of the visiting Indianapolis Colts [-1] as Sports Odds Betting favorites against the hosting Green Bay Packers [+1]. After getting off to an uncharacteristic 1-2 start, the Colts seem to have made some adjustments during their bye in Week 4. Since then, Indianapolis has stringed together consecutive wins against the (1-4) Houston Texans (31-27) and a very impressive (31-3) performance last week against the (2-3) Baltimore Ravens defense. The OVER/UNDER for this Week 7 Colts-Packers game has been total at 47 combined points. The Packers, much like the Colts, have had to deal with injuries to key players. After starting 2-0, the Packers then went on to lose 3 straight. In the process, QB Aaron Rogers got roughed up, and missed considerable practice time with a sprained right shoulder. Last week Green Bay bounced back with a much-needed W, as they defeated the Seattle Seahawks 27-17.
