Gurley recorded just 10 yards on four carries in the NFC Championship Game against the New Orleans Saints, though he did score a touchdown.
The regular-season leader in rushing touchdowns finished with 115 yards and a score on 16 attempts against the Dallas Cowboys in the divisional round.
The two-time All-Pro insisted that after sitting out the final two regular-season games due to a knee issue, the injury isn’t affecting him.
McVay is taking the blame for Gurley’s poor outing in the conference championship, saying he needs to do a better job of getting him the ball, according to NFL Network’s Andrew Siciliano.

The Rams will not win this game unless Gurley has a big one.
He’s the lifeblood of the Rams.
