THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Rams' plan for Jared Goff in his rookie debut?
"We’ll put him under center and we’ll hand it off," head coach Jeff Fisher said after Friday's practice, "and he’ll have a game where he doesn’t have to throw it."
Fisher laughed when he said that. He was joking. Pretty much. Sort of.
The Rams have spent the entire season trying to get star running back Todd Gurley going on the ground, and never has it been more crucial than on Sunday, when Goff, 2016's No. 1 overall pick, makes his first start at quarterback against the Miami Dolphins and their devastating defensive line.
