He isn't a sure thing

Didn't he get stuffed on that last 3-and-out? I mean, if ever there was a time for the "Why don't we run it more with Gurley?" argument to win out, that was the time. But it didn't happen.

I'm no strategery expert. Maybe we really do need to run it a lot more. But it wasn't the lack of running game that lost things today. Poor first half defense put us in a hole to begin with. Then TruJo killed our comeback momentum with his idiotic penalty.
