Mavs Overcome Early Rams' Goal

We gave up a goal in the very first minutes of the game as a result of being surprised by the Rams' direct play.  After that, however, we settled down and played much better defense.  Consequently, we were able to tie the game just before the first quarter ended.  We then tacked on two subsequent goals, allowing us to escape with a win against a Rams squad that threatened throughout the game.
