PR would solve the gerrymandering problem, sure, but PR probably wouldn't be a good fit for the U.S. We've got a candidate-centered rather than a party centered electoral system here. The American tradition (self-nomination, direct primaries, etc.) would make voting for closed party lists instead of individual people a non-starter here. STV would probably be more "American", but unfortunately it's probably too complicated for the average voter to understand.
