6 years agoLos Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (knee) was on the sidelines through most of the win over the Saints in the NFC Championship on Sunday, but he said his lack of snaps and production wasn't because of his injury. He ran four times for 10 yards and a touchdown and caught one pass for three yards in the 26-23 overtime win. Gurley's five touches from scrimmage were a career low, as were his 13 total yards. 16 carries. "I was sorry as hell today," Gurley said after the game. "I was sorry. So, C.J. did his thing and the whole team did its thing." Gurley rushed for 10 yards and a touchdown in four carries and caught one pass for 3 yards in the Rams' 26-23 overtime victory. His five touches from scrimmage were a career-low, as were his 13 total yards. And the 32 snaps Gurley played were his fewest in a game since his rookie season, as well as the fewest of any Rams offensive player that took the field Sunday. "That was just kind of the feel for the flow of the game that we had," Rams head coach Sean McVay said when asked about Gurley's situation. "Not anything against Todd. C.J. did a nice job, but I thought that they did a nice job as a whole, slowing down our run game, and we kind of just had to grind some things out." Gurley sat out the final two games of the regular season with inflammation in his left knee and ran six times for 115 yards and a score in the divisional round against the Cowboys. Gurley just hasn't looked right since his knee injury, but he'll have an extra week to heal up before the Super Bowl. He'll be a risky DFS choice at a high price against the Patriots.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
