who would you rather have going forward for the rest of the season?

PPR or non PPR?

non ppr

they all have a lot of upside in my mind. i really like mcfadden, but with jason campbell and michael bush stealing goalline opportunites, im not sure. rice seems like the safest bet of the 3

I'd rather have Rice no matter the scoring system. He's a beast in the running game both between the tackles and to the outside as well as in the passing game and Flacco looks his way often every single game. McFadden and McCoy both have nice upside but I worry about McFadden being able to stay healthy and I don't see as much upside as far as TDs go when you're talking about McCoy. Rice is the goal line back in Baltimore now and that's all he needed to solidify himself as a top 3 fantasy RB.

I'd rather have Rice like the others. With the uncertainty of Vick, I still feel like a lot of McCoy's value is with the Eagles spreading it out with Vick behind center. Not that it's a huge hit but there's so many different ways for him to get the ball over a backup like Kafka. But even with Vick, Rice is such a threat even without PPR, he's still getting those receiving yards to go with being the full featured back.

I agree that Rice is definitely the one to own out of the 3, but IMO, with Vick hurting, I think that the offense goes through McCoy much more until Vick returns.
