You may have had a bent derailleur hanger that caused a jam & forcing it while riding could have broken the derailleur itself (although that's pretty hard to do). I'd drive or walk it to a local bike shop. They can look at it & see what parts need to be replaced/repaired. It's very inadvisable to do any bike work when you don't know what your doing (especially in the drive), as you can easily make it worse.
