THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Todd Gurley tucked the football into his left arm, then defended himself to his right.
The Los Angeles Rams running back delivered a posterizing stiff arm to the helmet of Tre Flowers, keeping the Seattle Seahawks cornerback at arms length as Gurley muscled his way across the goal line.
"I had to go Derrick Henry style with the stiff arm," said Gurley, referring to the Tennessee Titans running back. "I thought [Flowers] would try to punch out the ball."
Gurley's 7-yard touchdown run gave the Rams a commanding lead in a win over the Seahawks last Sunday, and provided notice Gurley hasn't gone away.
