LOS ANGELES -- Ryan Tannehill's 9-yard touchdown pass to DeVante Parker with 36 seconds left rallied the Miami Dolphins to a 14-10 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on a wet Sunday at the Memorial Coliseum.

The Dolphins (6-4) didn't score until their final two possessions, yet they extended their winning streak to five games. They also put a damper on the debut of Rams rookie quarterback Jared Goff.

Goff, the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, was 17 of 31 for 134 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions.

The Rams (4-6) fell for the fifth time in six games.

Tannehill threw a 10-yard scoring reception to wide receiver Jarvis Landry with 4:02 left to cut the Rams' lead to three. Landry caught the ball at the Rams 5-yard line and then got an assist from his teammates, who pushed him into the end zone.

After Miami forced the Rams to punt, Tannehill drove the Dolphins 75 yards in seven plays in 1:35 for the game-winner. Tannehill finished 24 of 34 for 172 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Los Angeles running back Todd Gurley's 24-yard scoring run, his longest of the season, capped a 68-yard drive in four plays for a 7-0 edge at 9:47 of the first quarter. A 19-yard completion from Goff to Kenny Britt and a 15-yard facemask penalty helped set up the score.

It was only the second touchdown for the Rams in three games.

The Dolphins missed one of their few chances to score in the third quarter. Miami linebacker Kiko Alonso recovered a Lance Kendricks fumble at the Rams 37 with 9:44 left in the quarter, but Miami was unable to cash in the turnover.

On the first play of the possession, Rams safety Maurice Alexander picked off Tannehill in the end zone after the quarterback overthrew wide Parker.

The Rams added a 46-yard Greg Zuerlein field goal with 1:43 remaining in the third quarter. Zuerlein missed a 48-yard attempt with less than seven minutes remaining in the contest.

Gurley had 20 carries for 76 yards. Dolphins running back Jay Ajayi gained 77 yards on 16 attempts, and Parker caught eight passes for 79 yards.
