They're just different backs, so it's never going to be a reasonable comparison. Especially since Gurley missed quite a few games with injuries.
Gurley has better vision and agility. He'll juke you and slip by you and maybe toss in a stiff-arm.
Chubb seems a bit tougher/more durable and harder to bring down. He'll lower his head, hit you, knock you back, and then wrench his legs out of your grip and just continue running.
Other than that, both have incredible speed, incredible burst, great hands, don't fumble much at all, and can break off huge explosive runs at any moment and nobody catch them.
It's like trying to compare DeMarco Murray to Marshawn Lynch. Except Chubb appears to have no ego and isn't going to grab his crotch when he scores.
Chubb will likely end up with better stats at UGA than Gurley has simply because of durability and likely playing more games. So that's going to also make it impossible to really compare them.
Both are special though. It's silly to try and compare them because it's impossible to know what Gurley really could have been due to the injuries.

I strongly disagree, the Auburn game prove this statement incorrect.
