Our Texans vs. Rams predictions think Houston's defense will be able to dictate the pace at SoFi Stadium.
defense that could quite comfortably be the best in the NFL. You have the second-best edge rusher in the league in Will Anderson Jr. on one side of the line, and opposite him is Danielle Hunter, who is also an elite, potentially Top-10 defensive end.
There’s going to be a lot of pressure on Stafford, and even if he really is in great health, then they could still be in big trouble.rebound after his sophomore slump, but this is still a team that’s had huge changes on the offensive line and might need time to gel. And without Joe Mixon, the running game now lies in the hands of Nick Chubb, and we don’t know if he’s going to be anywhere near the guy he was pre-injuries. We’re also going to add the Texans to win. This team has a truly elite defense and should be able to limit the Rams to a couple of scores. To finish off the SGP, we’re backing Nico Collins to score. Collins is one of the league’s best wideouts and scored eight touchdowns last season, despite missing five games due to injury and subsequently working his way back to full health.Davante Adams gives the team a real X receiver and is now L.A.'s main receiving threat in the red zone. C.J. Stroud averaged 223.9 yards per game last year, but with a new OC and a healthy Collins, as well as Christian Kirk and Jayden Higgins in his WR corps, we should see him improve upon his 2024 performances.Houston's defensive front is truly elite, and with doubts over Matthew Stafford's health, it should be concerning that he'll be under huge pressure every snap.The Rams failed to cover the spread in all three games as home favorites last year and might struggle against this Texans defense. If this Texans defense does as expected, it’ll keep the score down, just as Houston might struggle to put up big numbers with the state of its running game.: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
