ST. LOUIS -- The St. Louis Rams still have to prove they can actually win the NFC West or earn a wild-card playoff berth. But in case there was any lingering doubt that it's possible, running back Todd Gurley erased it on Sunday.
No, this isn't the Greatest Show on Turf and the Rams aren't going to be throwing for 300 yards a game and lighting up scoreboards like they did in the early 2000s. But as Gurley showed for the fourth consecutive game, he is the type of electrifying talent capable of elevating a team from pretender to contender.
