Deadwood Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Here's some nice choir-preaching to all fellow Rice owners. According to Harbaugh, as per Rotoworld, Rice will be focal point of the Ravens O moving forward. "We need to get Ray involved in every single way. Passing game, run game, every single way. It's definitely important for us, we want to do that every single week, and obviously we did not do a good job of that on Sunday." http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/4645/ray-rice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I mentioned elsewhere that I believe this could be the week Rice puts up more Rice-like numbers. I think he goes for 100 combined and a score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stethant Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Here's the question: hasn't this been obvious from the get-go? Why is it that regardless of whether Cameron or Caldwell is the OC, Ray Rice gets underutilized? I am not a Rice owner this year but can't fathom why it takes the coach 4 weeks to realize, oh wait, even though our offense has been gutted we still have a stud RB to lean on.

Avernus Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I have had a bad feeling about his durability this year...for one I feel that way about a lot of workhorse backs with the shortened training camp and also the fact that he is fresh off a superbowl win to where a lot of players naturally take it easy in the offseason...it is natural for a person to do this...plus he has been healthy for almost too long since his start in the NFL...I could be wrong but I just don't see him holding up if he is getting 25+ touches a game...which is where this is likely headed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's one of the very few RBs with whom I have no durability concenrs. That he's missed some time this year has been surprising, but if he's back fully this game, he only missed two and a half games(although he played last week). He'll be fine. I'm more concerned with AP staying healthy than Rice tbh. Edited October 3, 2013 by Tripleshot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The love affair with Joe's huge, but terribly inaccurate arm is a very odd and somewhat inexplicable thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
