After a 115-yard, one touchdown rushing performance in a 30-22 win in the Divisional Round, are we ready to lock and load Todd Gurley into lineups this weekend against the New Orleans Saints?
In the words of the great Lee Corso, not so fast, my friends.
While Gurley was solid a week ago, it's interesting to note how much work back-up C.J. Anderson received -- he actually out-touched Gurley 23 to 16 in carries, and Gurley only received two catches in the passing game. Anderson also vultured two rushing scores from Gurley due to that high carry volume.
And that ignores how good the Saints run defense has been -- which ranks fourth in our schedule-adjusted metrics. With the highest price tag for running backs on the slate, but possibly dealing with a time share in the backfield, Gurley may be one to pivot away from.
