Who to start Rice or McGahee

Postby Solitarybrood » Sat Sep 26, 2009 5:41 am

As the title says I'm not sure who to start Ray Rice or Willis McGahee, Rice is listed as the starter but McGahee seems to get the ball inside the 20 and TD's and last week had more carries then Rice. (Also to note my league has a nice yardage bonus of 10 points at 100 yards rushing)

Tough choice.. guy in my league has them both and is playing both!

Willis is running and getting the TDs after lil Ray gets them downfield... BUT, in SD game, Willis was also breaking big runs. Playing at home versus a divisional rival that looks weak. I think Ravens will pound the ball quite a bit so either option will yield success... Know I havent been much help for you to make a decision, but I think Willis will remain the TD vulture! He is in a contract year and is "auditioning" .... whether he remains in B'more or goes elsewhere... came to camp in excellent shape and voiced that it was his best camp ever!!

Rice is still noted as the starter, but Ravens will employ that three-headed monster.. dont forget that McClain gets a few touches... even some goal line series!

GOOD LUCK!

Starting both of them doesn't sound like a bad idea as I have Cedric Benson going up against a tough Pittsburgh defense in my Flex position.

Agreed! Tough to run on PIT and Benson reminds me of when I drafted him years ago... while I admire Marvin Lewis.... I still think his team gets shut down... much to my dismay!

Think about Rice and McGahee... they were great last week against a formidable D.... Browns I think have worst run defense in league as of now...

GOOD LUCK!
