I think this is a much easier call than you think. Firstly, as people above me mentioned, he isn't a good candidate to score a TD. Secondly, you cannot assume Rice will run over SD becuase DMC and Bush did. DMC and Bush are both much more downhill physical runners than Rice. Thirdly, DMC's match up vs. KC is the best hes going to get all year. Last year he rushed for 177 yards and a TD in two games against KC. Finally, Fargas is healthy this week and will eat into Bush's carries (the only dude who can take TD's away from DMC). Cable said DMC's touches will remain constant. So you will see DMC get 15-20 carries against a KC defense that hasnt improved from last year and one that DMC can torch. Oh wait I forgot to mention, DMC is healthy this time around. Like I said, no brainer.
