3 takeaways from Los Angeles Rams 29-27 win over Green Bay Packers in Week 8

1. Gurley extends touchdown streak

As frustrating as it was for some fantasy football owners to watch Gurley fall before the end zone to miss out on another touchdown, at least they were able to enjoy the star running back find the end zone earlier in the game on a 30-yard catch from Goff. With this trip into the end zone, Gurley now has 15 total touchdowns on the season, and will most likely crush his previous career high from last year of 19 since Los Angeles still has eight games to play.

What’s even more impressive for Gurley is he has not only scored a touchdown in every game so far in 2018, but Sunday marked the 11th game in a row he’s found the end zone during the regular season, dating back to last year. Los Angeles knew they had something special in Gurley after watching him finish second to Tom Brady in 2017 to the MVP award, and there’s no question he will be in the conversation once again in a few months from now.

Of course, if Gurley had to choose, he would prefer to see the Rams go on to win the Super Bowl over the running back winning some MVP award since this is what really matters the most. They say all good things must come to an end at some point, but for Gurley’s touchdown streak, Los Angeles would love to see it last the entire season if possible.
