Todd Gurley and the Los Angeles Rams have moved to 4-0 after their Thursday night victory over the Minnesota Vikings. And after finishing the first quarter of the season with a perfect record, it’s understandable for Gurley to be feeling great about the team.
Gurley made that confidence pretty clear with his post-game comments about how good he thinks they’re playing at the moment.
“Any team can be beat right now, but, nah, we can't be beat right now. No ifs, ands or buts about it,” Gurley said per Kevin Patra of NFL.com.
Gurley once again played his part in Thursday night’s big win. He had 83 rushing yards on 17 carries and added 73 yards on just four catches with a touchdown. Meanwhile, the Rams’ top three wide receivers — Cooper Kupp, Brandin Cooks, and Robert Woods — all had over 100 yards receiving and caught a touchdown.
Gurley admits it’s great to play alongside such talented receiving weapons who can do so much damage to opposing defenses.
“It's a blessing. It's a blessing for sure,” Gurley said of playing with so many weapons. “Just having these guys at receiver. The Arizona game (Week 2) — they were depending on stopping the run — I'm like, ‘OK, it's going to be [the receivers' game]. And those guys went out there and tore it up. Like coach says, we don't feel pressure, we apply it. That's our motto. We try to go out there and attack and we got a great offensive line. You might know we're going to run the ball, but at the end of the day, you have to stop it.”
Gurley and co. will have a tricky next month or so with four of their next five games on the road and a home game against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers. But if their offense continues to put up 35 points per game as they have through the first four weeks, it’ll be tough for any team to stop the Rams’ winning run.
