The Rams held off the Texans 14-9 in a defensive battle.

The Texans were moving toward a go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter when Nate Landman punched the ball out of the hand running back Dare Ogunbowale after a 7-yard reception to the Los Angeles 18. Braden Fiske fell on the ball at the 24 with 1:43 left. It was the second lost fumble of Ogunbowale’s nine-year career.

The Texans, with three timeouts, still had a chance to get the ball back especially after the Rams were called for holding on first down. But Kyren Williams ran for 4 and 8 yards before Puka Nacua caught a 24-yard pass from Matthew Stafford on third-and-8 with 1:27 left to end the suspense.

The Rams scored their touchdowns on a 1-yard run by Williams on fourth down and a 13-yard Stafford pass to tight end Davis
