A week ago, the Bears were able to derail the Rams offense, by making sure Todd Gurley wasn’t a factor.
The Rams weren’t going to let that happen two weeks in a row.
Thanks to a heavy early workload for their workhorse back, the Rams are up 7-3 on the Eagles.
Gurley just scored his 20th touchdown of the year, a 5-yard touchdown run. But the emphasis is clear, as Gurley has touched the ball on 10 of their 16 offensive plays.
Considering he’s their best offensive player, it’s a sound strategy.
