Todd Gurley carves up Seahawks' defense in big road win Published: Dec 18, 2017 at 07:38 AM We're at the point in the season in which it doesn't need to be explained anymore: Road games are tough to win. In Week 15's first 15 contests, visiting teams went 6-9. The biggest wins of the day went to the road teams, though, with New England upending Pittsburgh in a clash of AFC titans and Los Angeles detonating Seattle in a changing-of-the-guard victory. The few, but mighty, these road squads are. Atlanta stands Trevor Ariza Jersey a pretty good chance of bringing that record to 7-9 when it faces Tampa Bay on . The went 7-9 in three straight seasons (2014-2016), and look at them now. We begin with the league's leader in rushing touchdowns, thanks to his Sunday performance. These are your greatest on the road from Week 15. Greatest on the Road Todd Gurley, Los Angeles Rams (https://www.facebook.com/courtyard/app_328770843881022) Harry Gilles III Jersey We've featured him plenty here this season, for good reason. Let's see... League leader in rushing yards? Check. League leader in rushing touchdowns? You bet. Among rushers with 700 yards or more this season, only New Orleans' has a higher yards-per-carry average (5.1) than Gurley's 4.6. He did a whole lot to boost those numbers on Sunday in a startling, over the . Gurley toted the ball 21 times, gaining 152 yards and scoring three touchdowns in the proce s. Two of his three scores came from just a yard out, but the third -- oh, the third -- came on a 57-yard sprint through the ' defense to put the ahead 34-0. All three came in the first half, too. Talk about going into an opponent's Nassir Little Jersey house and claiming ownership. Behind the efforts of Gurley, the did just that on Sunday. Nick Foles, Philadelphia Eagles Last week was a bummer for the city of Philadelphia. The beat the in a matchup of NFC powers, but lost MVP candidate . Never has an 11-2 team been le s promising with the postseason just around the corner. Not to be sunk by a torn ligament, Philadelphia rallied as it usually does. The focal point of such rally? Familiar face and former hero of winter football , who was christened on a local advertisement as St. . Ah, Christmas puns. Foles sure was magical, though, overcoming a slow start to throw the to a win over the lowly . Foles compelted 24 of 38 pa ses for 237 yards and four scores, spreading the touchdown pa ses among four different targets like St. Nick spread gifts to the people. Christmas came early to the , and perhaps more is in store with Foles. No word on if he's jolly. Brock Osweiler, Denver Broncos Amine Jersey I know, I can't believe I'm typing this, either. The rise, fall, rise, fall and brief rise of Osweiler is stuff of Hollywood. The quarterback went from backup sensation to ma sively disappointing free-agent addition, to irrelevant quarterback cut by the of all teams, back to Denver, where he owned the starting job before losing it again. Seems like the string has run out on him, right? Not on Thursday night. Osweiler replaced the injured and promptly led the to victory, accounting for all three of Denver's touchdowns in a 25-13 win over Indianapolis. Osweiler was sharp, slicing and dicing the ' defense for 194 yards and two touchdowns on 12-of-17 pa sing, and adding Rodney Hood Jersey another on the ground with . Denver won, and we're again teased by what Osweiler be, maybe, just perhaps. He sure looked the part on Thursday.
