LOS ANGELES (AP) — Todd Gurley’s comments following Los Angeles‘ 55-40 loss to Tampa Bay on Sunday can best describe the current state of the Rams‘ offense: confusing.One minute Austin Blythe Jersey , the reigning NFL Offensive Player of the Year was saying that coach Sean McVay and quarterback Jared Goff have everything under control. Then, when asked why he carried the ball only five times and the Rams called the fourth-highest percentage of passing plays in an NFL game since 1991, he turned to the one line frequently uttered when star players are frustrated.“I don’t call the plays, I go out there and play,” he said after having only five carries for 16 yards. That is the least amount of carries the fifth-year running back has had in a regular-season start.In a matter of four weeks, Gurley has gone from one of the league’s workhorse backs to an afterthought.He didn’t see his first carry until there was 8:28 remaining in the second quarter, marking the first time he has not had a carry in the first quarter. He had four carries the last two weeks during the first quarter in wins over New Orleans and Cleveland.When asked if the decreased offensive production was due to nagging problems with his left knee, Gurley glared at reporters.“Everybody has an opinion but that’s why you are all in the stands and are reporters. You’re not coaches and players Kurt Warner Jersey ,” Gurley said. “McVay knows what he is doing, Goff knows what he is doing. This whole team knows what it is doing.”Of the 81 offensive plays, 87.5 percent (or 70 plays) were passes. According to Sportradar, the lopsided distribution was tied for fourth highest in the league in the past 29 seasons. McVay’s previous high in passing plays was 79.4 percent in a loss to Chicago last year.The large percentage of passing plays can be mostly attributed to the Rams falling behind 21-0 midway through the second quarter, but when the Rams trailed by only a touchdown for the first 20 minutes they passed on all but one of the first 14 plays. The running play was a reverse to wide receiver Cooper Kupp that ended up losing 2 yards.When Gurley did carry the ball he was productive. Two of his carries were for touchdowns. His 13-yard burst off right tackle, where he carried a pair of Tampa Bay defenders 3 yards into the end zone, brought the Rams within 21-7 in the second quarter. He also had a 5-yard carry up the middle for his second score in the fourth quarter where he broke a couple tackles.McVay once again said that he is not conserving his running back for late in the season.“No, there’s none of that. We’re doing what we can to try to find a way to win games http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-marshall-faulk-jersey ,” he said. “It’s not about conserving, we’ve got to win right now and that’s the most important thing. There’s nothing like that.”But by relying too much on the pass, Goff is facing a lot of pressure in the pocket. He was hit nine times on Sunday and sacked twice.“They did a great job defensively applying that pressure and keeping it on all day. They did a good job,” Goff said. “We’ve got to be better regardless, but they did do a good job bringing pressure.”The Rams are 3-1 but will quickly have to make adjustments with their next two being key division games. They travel to Seattle (3-1) on Thursday and host San Francisco (3-0) on Oct. 11.Goff and McVay will need to find a way to get Gurley more involved if they want to win the NFC West for the third straight season.“We do want to get him involved more and do want to do that, but it’s dictated game-by-game,” Goff said.“It’s frustrating, for sure but I think I try to have a good perspective on it Womens Eric Dickerson Jersey , knowing it’s only Week 4. Let this one go by as quick as possible, because we’ve got to go up to Seattle on Thursday,” Goff said.

Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsPer ESPN’s Los Angeles Rams blogger Lindsey Thiry, the Rams are set to sign QB John Wolford:Wolford played his college ball at Wake Forest before going undrafted in the 2018 NFL Draft and joining the New York Jets and being cut in the 53-man roster purge. Recently, he played in the now defunct AAF for the Arizona Hotshots.Wolford will get a shot at a QB3 role against Brandon Allen over the offseason program with Jared Goff locked in at QB1 and Blake Bortles behind him.Fans may remember his uncle Torry Holt Jersey , Will Worford, for his stellar offensive line play as a first-round pick in the 1986 NFL Draft and three subsequent Pro Bowl appearances in the 1990s.His only action for the Jets was in their final preseason game last year where he really struggled. Hopefully, the game action he got in the AAF has helped him develop a bit and get to a point where he could legitimately push for a spot.Last year’s QB3 battle was between Allen and Luis Perez who himself went into the AAF and has since signed with the Philadelphia Eagles.
