Rams fans chime in on L.A.’s sixth ever meeting against the Houston Texans
How will the L.A. Rams do in their Week 1 matchup against the Houston Texans on September 7th? I could tell you my opinion, but I’d rather hear from Rams fans on this topic.
The Rams have played the Texans fewer times than against any other team in the NFL:
- The Rams are 4-1 against Houston
- The point differential is 155-85
- The Rams have scored at least 33 points in all four wins
- The Rams have played the Texans more times when they were in St. Louis than since they’ve been in Los Angeles
- In their most recent game, the Rams beat the Texans 38-22 in 2021.
The Rams held a 38-0 lead going into the fourth quarter of that game before surrendering three touchdowns in less than six minutes of game time. But it was a 38-point lead so it didn’t really matter and L.A. improved to 7-1 while Houston dropped to 1-7.
The teams are a bit different this time around.
Those Texans started Davis Mills at QB, Rex Burkhead at RB, and the leading receiver was Brandin Cooks.
These Texans have C.J Stroud, Joe Mixon, and a receiver corps of Nico Collins, Christian Kirk, Tank Dell (not expected to play any time soon though), and day two picks Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel. Plus their defense could be one of the best in the league under DeMeco Ryans.
Will the Rams start 0-1 or 1-0?
