1967N - Week 3
Los Angeles Rams at Dallas Cowboys
At The Cotton Bowl Sunday, October 1, 1967
Rams roll past Cowboys late, 31-20.
Dallas - Roman Gabriel scrambled for a touchdown with less than three minutes to go on a critical third-down play to give the Los Angeles Rams a one point lead for the first time in the ball game. Irv Cross snuffed the Cowboys rally with an interception that led to a Bruce Gossett field goal. Ed Meador put the nail in the Cowboy coffin with another interception and a 54 yard return for a touchdown as the Los Angeles Rams defeated the Dallas Cowboys, 31-20. Backup quarterback Craig Morton was picked off on his first attempt to give the Cowboys three turnovers in the final three minutes of the game.

A turnover with five minutes remaining deep in Cowboy territory set up the Rams go-ahead score. Dan Reeves fumbled and Merlin Olsen recovered for the Rams at the Cowboy 14. A pair of runs by Gabriel pushed the Rams to the Dallas one-yard line. But the Cowboy defense turned back Gabriel on a sneak to set up a third down play from the three. Gabriel rolled outside looking for Les Jospheson. However, Bob Lilly pursued Gabriel who tucked the ball and outran the Dallas defense to paydirt. Gabriel also led the Rams with his arm, finishing 20 for 33 for 272 yards. The Rams defense stuffed the Dallas air attack as Meredith completed only nine of 27 attempts.
