Remember the one poster last year that after Gurley's quick start he would post photos of the 8 and crazy 9 guys in the box formations of the other team because of the predictability of the offense?
Nobody, not even Gurley can run through 9 great NFL athletes. They get paid too.
Give him some offensive coaching and I agree. 2000 yard runner and 6.0 yards per carry runner. I think OJ Simpson only player ever to achieve both.
They wanted things from the Gase offense which is why they hired Groh out of Chicago.
Here's from coverage of that game last year.

The Bears’ formula when they’ve had success this season has been pretty simple: control the ball and the clock and keep the defense on the sideline. Entering Sunday’s game, Chicago was fourth in the NFL in time of possession. Offensive coordinator Adam Gase has installed a system that allows quarterback Jay Cutler to take care of the ball, make plays when the opportunity arises and keep the Bears offense on the field.
...Gase called a nearly perfect game and had the Rams defense completely off balance with a mix of quick passes and power runs. When it was all said and done, the Bears had the ball for 34:22 to the Rams’ 25:38. Chicago also had 17 first downs to the Rams’ 12. While the Bears also hit a couple of big plays, consider those just a bonus to a game plan that was perfectly executed. Given the time of possession disparity, the result of the game should be no surprise
