Halloween was scarier than anyone expected for the Houston Texans as they were slaughtered by the Los Angeles Rams during the Week 8 matchup. The final score was 38-22, but the Texans did not score until late in the 4th quarter after the Rams took their foot off the gas. The Texans drop to 1-7 for the season. (Photos by Jack Gorman)
