Houston Texans vs Los Angeles Rams 8/19/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

The Houston Texans will go against the Los Angeles Rams in NFL action in SoFi Stadium, CA, on Friday, August 19, 2022, at 10:00 PM ET.

The Texans appeared to be on the verge of becoming one of the top NFL clubs only two short years ago. DeShawn Watson was the team’s quarterback, DeAndre Hopkins was the best wide receiver in football, and JJ Watts, a defensive lineman, was one of the top football defenders.

All three guys are gone in the blink of an eye, and the Texans are completely rebuilding.

David Mills, the team’s second-year quarterback, is now in charge. As a rookie last year, Mills opened 13 matches for the Texans, who had a miserable 4-13 record.

In two drives where the team failed to obtain a first down during the team’s preseason opener versus New Orleans, Mills was 3-for-3 for 14 yards.

Only two series were played by Mills in the Texans’ season opener, while Marlon Mack, who was expected to start at running back, had just three carries for 6 yards.

The Houston Texans are 4-1 ATS in its last 5 matches.
The OVER cashed in 4 of the Texans’ last 6 matches.
The Texans are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road matches.

Houston Texans vs Los Angeles Rams Predictions 8/19/2022

The Los Angeles Chargers, another tenant of SoFi Stadium, hosted the LA Rams to open the preseason. The Rams defeated the Chargers 29-22 on Saturday night, and the offense looked excellent despite playing without the majority of the team’s players.

In actuality, the Rams started third-string quarterback Bryce Perkins instead of their top 2 quarterbacks, Matthew Stafford and John Wolford.

Perkins ran for 39 yards on 8 carries, including a 1-yard touchdown midway through the third quarter, and completed 9 of 16 throws for 126 yards.

This week, the Rams are likely to use Raymond Calais, AJ Rose, and Jake Funk as their backup running backs. Cam Akers and Darrell Henderson, the Rams’ top two running backs, were absent from practice because they are recovering from soft tissue injuries.

The Rams continue to exercise care since they are aware that the regular season’s significance considerably outweighs that of preseason contests.

Los Angeles is 2-4 ATS in its last 6 matches on Friday.
The UNDER cashed in 6 of the Rams’ last 7 matches at home.
The total went Under in 20-7 of the Rams’ last 27 home matches.

Houston Texans vs Los Angeles Rams. The NFL pick for this game is the Los Angeles Rams.

Los Angeles won’t start against Houston on Friday, but backup players like Bryce Perkins, who excelled in the first preseason match, will do so once more against the weak Houston defense.

The Texans dropped each of the previous 5 straight-up games against the Rams, and Houston failed to cover the spread in five of the last six meetings with Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Rams will win and cover the ATS to a predicted score of 27-20.
