ST. LOUIS -- The only offensive success the St. Louis Rams have had this season has been tied directly to the effectiveness of running back Todd Gurley. Fair or not, as Gurley has gone, so have the Rams.
St. Louis went just about nowhere over their previous five games, losing all of them to form a streak that spurred coach Jeff Fisher to fire offensive coordinator Frank Cignetti and promote Rob Boras to the job last week. After a first half that looked eerily similar to those five games, the Rams offense took off in the second half as Boras dialed up Gurley's No.
