In his rookie year he could make people miss, and run through tackles. Last year, he could get arm tackled and go down. First contact usually ended his rush attempt. It was baffling to me.

I still think that most of it had to do with Fisher turning him into an untouchable prima dona. Not allowing him to get tackled in training camp? Wearing a red shirt like a QB? Fisher babied him, and tried to make him out to be a freak hybrid of Marshall Faulk and Eddie George. But then Fisher turned the offense over to a novice. The result was a disaster.

Can Gurley redeem himself this year? TBD. I'm not that much of a Gurley fan; hated the pick because there is no reason in this league to spend a 1st round draft pick on a RB, let alone a top 10 pick. And I don't like the idea of a "workhorse" RB any way. A stable of specialists is better. And cheaper.
