As a dawg fan I'm glad he did ok for you guys yesterday (yes, I said ok.) But he still looks a little stiff at times hitting the hole and his cuts aren't all the way back. The Gurley I know doesn't lose yards no matter how bad the blocking is. One thing I did see is him getting better as the game wore on. Watch out.
I love TG30.

Had to be pretty difficult for him to resist punching it in right there.
Meh... I'll take the smart, heads up, seal the WIN play each and every time. I would never look back at it if we were to somehow miss the playoffs because he MIGHT have scored there.
This is just great blocking and execution on this play. Add in Gurley's speed and acceleration and bam! 53 yards easy./cdn0.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/4124492/grly.0.gif)
Also note how open the end around is on this play. If we hand it to Tavon on this play I think we could've gained just as much yardage as Gurley does.
What a well designed play!
Much more likely in an unlikely scenario is Gurley scoring and GZ missing the extra point. Arizona would still have time to tie the game up. Gurley made the smarter play.
So you don't even think Gurley looked 100%? Good lord.
IF we get out of GB with a WIN we will not have stolen it, we will have done it the 'Old fashioned way' and earned it! The packers and Rams are tied for #2 in the League in Sacks, w/17 each, It going to be a hard hitting game!! ( Denver leads the League w/18 Sacks!)

Yea, Gurley isn't 100% yet. He's not accelerating as fast or cutting as hard as he was in college. Just wait till he gets more confidence in that knee.
Yeah, I thought that was the hit that woke him up...The LB almost knocked him over....Tremendous collision!
That MLB Linter or Minter...rookie or 2nd year from...some sec school
Love that body lean too...Look at that inadvertent Heisman Pose.
So awesome.
I read somewhere Jamon Brown was giving him hell....
Fixed it for ya Dave
Todd Gurley really looked good in the second half...While I don't think he's at his pro best, he seems to me to be the same rb from college. The best player in college football by far....Also reminds me of Bo Jackson....but his effect on the offense was Eric Dickerson-ish....
Can't wait to see this O in Green Bay...Hurry back Quick! get your game ready Britt/Cook...Cause Mountineers & Gurley going crazy!
He isn't. He's missing about 2 gears of acceleration and another gear of cutting. Which should have that weak Green Bay Run D pissing themselves.

Perhaps.
But keep in mind......I never said it wasn't a good move. Just pointing out that the first time he did it, it was absolutely a 'wise beyond his years' move. And while the 2nd time was ok as well, there are extenuating circumstances to think it could have been beneficial to go ahead and run it in. I mean really....how may PAT's has GZ missed. It's not like that isn't all but a lock.
When was the last time the rams had a back that had 4 carries for 20+yards in 1 game..... we usually get that for a season... BUT 1 GAME OMG I LOVE YOU GURLEY!!
