Despite the fact that the Rams offense was historically bad last season, running back Todd Gurley still managed 885 yards rushing and six touchdowns as well as well as 43 receptions for 327 yards receiving.

It was a bit of a backslide from his NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year showing in 2015, but he’s still considered to be the backbone of the offense as they move forward.

Even still, Gurley himself believes that the offensive scheme in 2017 should focus on maximizing the potential of 2016 first-overall draft pick, quarterback Jared Goff.

During his recent sit down interview with SB Nation’s Dan Rubenstein, Gurley talked about the future of the team’s offense and what’s in store for the upcoming season.

“It’s not about me,” Gurley explained. “I just texted Goff and said ‘it’s your world, I’m just living in it.’ Whatever we run, I’ll be happy with it. It’s fine.”

Gurley also believes that whatever changes may come in the off-season, the team can turn things around with the draft and with the players that they already have,

“I feel like we have the talent…during the game we just have to put it together…Obviously ever year you lose people to the free agency. So I’m pretty sure the coach will do a pretty good job during the draft and hopefully those guys come in and work hard and we can get this thing going.”

The offense certainly has a lot to prove after last season, but it’s clear that Gurley trusts the process and is willing to do his part.

Although the former Georgia Bulldog did also say in the interview that he’d prefer to have to rehab his ACL than to drive cross-country on a bus full of Gators fans.

I don’t know if we have to worry about that happening, but for the sake of Gurley’s knees and the future of the Rams, let’s all keep him away from the Florida fans.
