Jared Goff, Todd Gurley shine in wild Rams win over 49ers

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Jared Goff never got a chance to play here last year. The Los Angeles Rams opened their 2016 season at Levi's Stadium, and Goff, the No. 1 overall pick earlier that spring, was inactive, confined to street clothes with a plethora of family and friends watching from the stands. Goff was asked about that earlier this week and shook his head. He announced that he was "done" talking about last year.

"Last year was a whole different deal," Goff said, "and this year is exciting."

Is it ever.

Goff played the best game of his NFL career on Thursday, 11 days after playing the best game of his NFL career.
