Enjoy the game and root hard for the Royal and Sol!!!!Hoping for a Rams blow out and a sizable home field advantage. Hopefully my son and I can help bring home the win.
I think this is a tough matchup.

That offense is no joke and will test our secondary.
Texans defense technically ranked better than ours in 2024.
From my understanding they have a pretty bad OL as far as personnel. Our DL should feast if they don't have an excellent game plan to counter.Don't the Texans have an average O-line? If so, I could see the Rams taking control of this game.
Looks like the Texans' OL was ranked ~bottom 4th last year, and 30th in run blocking. https://nfllines.com/nfl-2024-final-comparative-offensive-line-rankings/Don't the Texans have an average O-line? If so, I could see the Rams taking control of this game.
They had an awful OL last season and its really the ultimate reason Stroud struggled. They almost fully changed it out but also traded away the best lineman they had. I really hope they haven't gel'd and our rush is all over them the whole game. That alone could win us the game.Don't the Texans have an average O-line?

And they traded their best lineman Laramy Tunsil to Washington. We should be able to put some pressure on Stroud. Just don't let him take off and do damage with his legs.Looks like the Texans' OL was ranked ~bottom 4th last year, and 30th in run blocking. https://nfllines.com/nfl-2024-final-comparative-offensive-line-rankings/

Didn't the trade happen before the draft? My guess is the rookie is going to be in trouble against our Dline. Don't they have issues at RT too?They traded Tunsil partially because their rookie O-lineman, Aireontae Ersery, looked good.
It looks really vulnerable otherwise, though.
I hate to say it but I feel our offense might struggle against their Defense, they have excellent pass rushers and a very good secondary. Our Defense needs to kick ass against their Oline.I’m going to be stubborn on the Rams had better be coming out of the gate looking good on offense and scoring points this year.
How about we get a season where we aren’t hearing McVay preach about “overcoming adversity” every week. It’s okay to stumble occasionally but I mean…
Go out there, be ready and fuck the bad teams up.
Be in position to compete for the #1 seed
Yes, Tunsil was traded in mid-March for multiple picks in 2025 and 2026; and Ersery was drafted in April.Didn't the trade happen before the draft?
Says kmramsfan, the prolific Rams Homer : " I think the Rams will get 5-6 sacks on Stroud, rush for 175 yds, and get at least one turn over."I think Houston’s Offensive line is their Achilles heel.
Last years Rams stats need to be taken with a grain of salt. That goes for offense, due to injuries early, and on defense they played a lot of young players with a new defensive coordinator. It took some time to sort it out. Omar Speights starting midway, Verse started to use a more controlled rush, and the DBs began to gel in the system as the season went on. Aside from the Bills score the defense ended the season very strong.
So yeah my brilliant gameplan is jump on them early on the scoreboard.
