Todd Gurley 28 Carries, 208 Yards, 2 Touchdowns, 2 Receptions, 17 Yards
Todd Gurley is the best RB in the NFL now, there’s no argument to me. If there is a better RB, I’d love to hear it.
Gurley is a do-it-all type of back, who can put a team on his back and win games.
Coming into this game, most people expected a heavy dose of Gurley with the conditions of the game. That’s how it usually goes in bad weather games.
The good thing for the Rams is, they have a guy who doesn’t seem to slow down throughout the game.
This was a career game for Gurley, rushing for the most yards he has in a game in his career. This was the first time the Rams had a 200 yard rusher since Marshall Faulk in 2001.
With Jared Goff likely having his worst game of the year, Gurley’s dominance was needed.
Gurley could be on his way to a historic year. As of now he leads the NFL in rushing touchdowns with nine. He also leads the league in rushing yards (623), scrimmage yards (870) and total touchdowns (11).
Here’s the first of his two touchdowns yesterday, coming on fourth and inches.

The run blocking was exceptional all day, with this play showcasing that.
Every week, Gurley’s case for MVP keeps getting even more stronger. If he keeps at the pace he’s currently on, he could be having one of the best seasons we’ve seen from a RB in NFL history.
