Rams struggle in loss to Cardinals; Texans rise in power rankings

The Rams fell to a 2-4 record after a narrow 18-16 defeat to the Cardinals, losing a last-second field goal in what was seen as a critical game for their season. Injuries have plagued the team, including a significant loss of receiver Davante Adams for 6-10 weeks due to a hamstring issue. In contrast, the Texans climbed eight spots in the power rankings following a win in London against the Jaguars, showcasing the performance of quarterback C.J. Stroud. The Rams now sit at 18th in power rankings and face a crucial upcoming schedule that includes games against the Raiders and Chargers, where they need at least a 3-1 record to keep playoff hopes alive.
