    What has happened to Todd Gurley??
    This guy was supposed to be the focal point of the team.

    He was the player on all the billboards out here, and seen all over commercials.

    And he sucks.

    He's nothing like he was last year.

    I wonder if he's afraid to run hard because of what happened to his teammate, Tre Mason. Apparently his brain has turned into mashed potatoes after too many concussions.

      He does not appear to be running as hard as last year. He also lost about 20 lbs so he's not the power back he was.

            I was just going to say was he always this thin? I remember him much bigger in college.

            Reminds me of cadillac williams right now.

              Not getting much help from his oline either. One of worst run blocking units in the league

                I was waiting for someone to say this.

                But no, he's not the same.

                It was evident in the first quarter, when he couldn't put his head down and get a first down.

                There is no explosiveness anymore.

                    I don't think he's found a hole since his baby mamas.

                    (It sounded funny in my head)

                      Maybe he's dogging it because he's not getting any help?

                      I don't know 1St rams game I've seen this year

                          Didn't he complain last week they were running a middle school offense. He's playing about as hard as a middle schooler waiting for halftime orange slices.

                                      He's a stud. They just load up the box against this offense. Wouldn't you do the same?

                                                  I'm guessing that means you expect him to be a pro bowler and future Hall of Famer.

                                                    Are you being defensive like usual?

                                                    Nobody looks like a stud against an 8 man box. Put him on Dallas and he'd have similar numbers to Elliot. He's that good.

                                                      I've seen 4-5 games this year, the OL is one of the worst in the league. The QB play doesn't scare anyone, why wouldn't a team stack the box to stop him?

                                                        Nobody looks like a stud against an 8 man box. Put him on Dallas and he'd have similar numbers to Elliot. He's that good.
                                                        ok yeah he's the same as last year, not like he lost weight at all and such

                                                        playing like you don't give a fukk and quitting on your team doesn't help either

                                                          That doesn't explain why he can't run hard.

                                                            You act like 220 lbs isn't big enough for a running back.

                                                            He has no room to run on this team. It's really not that hard to understand. You seem mad about it. You must've drafted him like 3rd in fantasy football.

                                                              Anyone have video or vine of his interview last week after game against falcons? Where he says "I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really don't know"

                                                                I would bet the Seahawks DL have blown up about half of the plays tonight. He could be frustrated with the situation there also. Have to think there is some with the D playing their asses off every game only to have the offense do nothing. If Seattle scores a TD, Gurley is basically out of the gameplan.

                                                                  I understand his frustration, and that he's on a terrible team, with a terrible quarterback, and a lousy frontline. But I saw him in the first quarter get pushed backwards. It was like the Bo Jackson versus Brian Bosworth play, except in reverse. His explosiveness just wasn't there.
