I didn't read any of his comments so don't know the context. Was he implying that his O line was not outnumbered and they needed to block better?
No. He was saying it was easier to run in that game because Buffalo was not selling out against the run by stacking the box.
That's what he said. From that, and a lot of other things, I gather that Buffalo';s defensive attack accounted for the fact that the Rams offense moved the ball and scored the last 3 games largely through passing, including big pass plays. Given that, they did not sell out to stop Gurley but put equal energy (in pass rush and coverage) on attacking Keenum.
This goes against the grain, where people say, well it should be easier for Keenum because teams sell out against Gurley. Actually, it looks like Buffalo did not do it that way. Probably because they have film showing them that selling out against Gurley helped 3 teams lose.
