Which jerseys are the Packers wearing today in Week 7 vs. Texans?
The Green Bay Packers will debut their new "Winter Warning" uniforms in Week 7 against the Houston Texans, an all-white combination, including a white helmet.
Understandably, the decision to move away from tradition has split opinion with the fanbase. However, it's hard to argue that the all-white uniforms look incredible, and just for one game, it will be fun to see something different at Lambeau Field. It's always important to respect the classic look, but we are getting an excellent uniform matchup fitting for a battle between two great teams.
The Packers are encouraging fans at Lambeau Field to wear white in what they are calling the first "Winter Warning" game.
"Hopefully, our fans embrace it. I know the guys are excited about wearing the white uniforms and the white helmets," said head coach Matt LaFleur. "Hopefully, everybody embraces it, gets excited about it, and shows up in white and is extremely loud for us."

If we're going to be slightly critical, would it not make more sense to wear the all-white winter uniforms... in winter? At night? The counter-argument is that they want the fans to also wear white, which is far more challenging in frozen temperatures.
Either way, the Packers-Texans uniform combination is one of the best in the NFL for Week 7.
The Texans will wear their all-navy uniforms, giving the game an elite jersey combination to go with a highly-anticipated matchup.
It's fun to mix things up from time to time. There's no beating the Packers' traditional home uniforms—although their 1950s throwbacks come close—but it's good to try something different every once in a while.
Not everyone will like it, but the Packers wearing all white in a Lambeau game is unique. The Packers may not be playing in wintery conditions to debut their "Winter Warning" uniform, but at least the all-white combination looks good.
