Jared Goff leads Rams to 4th straight win, 33-7 over Texans

LOS ANGELES — After the final whistle on the Rams’ fourth consecutive victory, Robert Woods looked up into the stands and felt the love from thousands of frenzied Los Angeles fans who stuck around for the final whistle on the Rams’ fourth consecutive convincing victory.

“Keep coming out to the Coliseum, and we’re going to keep winning for y’all!” Woods shouted.

After a false start to their franchise’s homecoming last season, the Rams are on a roll.

And the Houston Texans are the latest opponent to get flattened.

Woods caught two of Jared Goff’s three touchdown passes during a dominant third quarter, and the Rams returned after a month away from home with a 33-7 victory over Houston on Sunday.

After struggling to a 9-7 lead during a quiet first half for the NFL’S highest-scoring team, the Rams (7-2) ran away with a series of big throws by Goff, who passed for a career-high 355 yards. The defense also shut out Houston in the second half on the way to the Rams’ best start since 2001, when they went 8-1 in St. Louis on the way to the Super Bowl.

“The first half was a little shaky,” Goff acknowledged. “There’s some throws I would like back. We just couldn’t really get into a rhythm. In the second half, we figured it out.”

Did they ever: Woods caught a 94-yard TD pass to break it open before Sammy Watkins and Woods made TD catches 19 seconds apart late in the third quarter. Woods finished with eight catches for 171 yards, including a 12-yard TD that essentially sealed it.

The Rams’ 4-12 homecoming season tested the interest of LA fans who had been hurt by this franchise before, but coach Sean Mcvay’s Rams are definitely worth watching. A franchise with 13 consecutive non-winning seasons is just two victories away from breaking that streak. Page 2B
