  The situation last Sunday: Rams led by seven points, with a 3rd-and-4 play at the Jacksonville 26 and 3:38 left in the fourth quarter. A third-down failure would have meant a dicey mid-40-yard field goal.
  The Rams lined up in a single-back set, sent a tight end in motion and pitched the ball to that back, Gurley, who followed three stellar blocks and gained nine yards. The Rams, with a fresh set o
