POST #1 TOPIC AUTHOR gurley is on pace to book a whopping 344 caries on the year, which is almost 25% more than his highest carry count since joining the rams (229, 278 and 279). to put this number into perspective, backs have carried the ball 344 or more times in a season just 66 times since 1978 (when the league moved to a 16 game schedule), which works out to an average of just 1.7 backs per year.one thing seems clear, the days of backs carrying the ball 300+ times per year has all but come to an end... last year only 1 back had 300+ carries on the year (bell), compared to 10 in 2001.here's a look at the top 10 carries per year counts dating back to the 2000 season, red text indicates carries of 300 of or more: add receptions to the equation and gurley's workload becomes even bigger, he's certainly earning his new contract. by AvengerRam 5 years 6 months ago Total posts: 8686 Joined: Oct 03 2017 Lake Mary, Florida Hall of Fame Re: Time To Pull Back On Gurley?

Typically, defenses key on Gurley and make Goff beat them. Now it seems like Goff can beat them. Denver tried something no one else tried. Limit Goff instead. It held them to 10 points below their average. If others copy that formula you have to run Gurley. If McVay took what the defense gave them Gurley and Brown could have run for 350 yards. by Hacksaw 5 years 6 months ago Total posts: 24523 Joined: Apr 15 2015 AT THE BEACH Moderator Time To Pull Back On Gurley?

If teams are gonna mimick the Broncos strategy of loading up on pass defense and allowing the Rams to run to keep the score down, then we need to run the ball right up their asses. We need 3 RBs for that.I agree with this. They need to platoon the RB's if teams try that defense. T.O.P. Rams 45 mins, opponents 15 mins and an L every time GO RAMS !!! GO DODGERS !!!
