Gurley had Greg Robinson blocking for him who you can't trust. Elliot knows he can trust his line and can be patient.
But I will still say this. I no longer think Gurley is what I thought he was, but I don't know how much of it is the horrific offensive coaching, how much of it was Greg Robinson and company blocking, and #3 how much of it is that he is damaged goods and lost something / isn't the same physically as he was when he first started.
No major injury was ever reported after he got to the NFL, but he had the knee injuries prior to the NFL.
