Texans vs Rams: Week 1 Preview & Keys to the Game
Description
The Houston Texans kick off the 2025 season on the road against the Los Angeles Rams. In this Week 1 preview, we’ll break down everything you need to know:
CJ Stroud’s homecoming game in California
His admiration for Matthew Stafford, who he’s called his favorite QB
The revamped Texans offensive line with new leadership under Nick Caley & Cole Popovich, built to handle Chris Shula’s defensive scheme after last year’s struggles with stunts and simulated pressures
Key connections between the two teams, including Nick Caley and Jerry Schuplinski’s Rams coaching tree ties, and DeMeco Ryans’ familiarity with the Rams from his 49ers days
The joint practices the Texans and Rams shared last year that bring added familiarity
Keys to the game: secondary eye discipline vs Stafford’s no-look throws, pre-snap communication in a loud road environment, and red-zone efficiency
