Flex start in Week 3?

[RavenScallywag]

I play in a QB/RB/WR/TE flex league. My opponent is pretty bad, so I'm confident for a win, but want to get a big boost in points. I'm stuck on the following three options for my flex:

Kyle Orton vs Oakland
Ray Rice vs Cleveland
Ronnie Brown vs SD

Scoring is 3 pts for Passing TD, 6 pts for Rushing/Receiving TD, ~10 yards/1 pt (We do fractional values so 99 yards would be 9.9 pts), non-PPR league.

Most people go with 2 QBs since the QB generally puts up more points, but with Orton going against Oakland, my gut is telling me Ronnie or Rice might be better plays, since Baltimore ran well against SD last week and Cleveland's D is going to give up a LOT in the run. (Side note, I also have McGahee, who is starting at RB)

Any opinions?

I would go with rice. 3 pt passing TD make Orton a weak play.
