Todd Gurley

He has rushed for 260-yards in four career games against the Cardinals.  He also has 11 receptions for 101-yards in those four games.

This season so far he has rushed for 521-yards and four touchdowns.  He has eclipsed the 100-yard mark in three of those six games.  His season low effort was against the Indianapolis Colts when he rushed for just 40-yards.  Oh and the Rams won that game 46-9.

The Cardinals had a little difficulty with Doug Martin of the Bucs last Sunday, so expect Gurley to possibly have his best game against the Cardinals in five tries.  That’s not saying it will happen but it is possible.

If the Rams are able to open up a decent passing attack, that will set up the run.  The health of the Cardinals defensive line will matter here.  Gurley may end up being the Rams best offensive weapon on Sunday.
