LOL. I dont think its wise to use the Ravens running backs this year because you never kno which guy is going to get the bulk of the carries.

I would agree, but Ray has shown that even when Willis is playing he's getting some touches and that it doesn't take many for him to make something happen. Still I wouldn't advise picking him up unless you really need some RB help; like myself with Barber on a bye my only other option is Piere Thomas at the moment.

That's why I handcuffed Rice after drafting McGahee.

I was fortunate enough to get Texans rookie RB Steve Slaton through free agency as my sleeper pick, and he's done phenomenally for me.

And whaddaya know...speaking of Pierre Thomas, I happen to have him as one of my emergency backups. Always good for return yardage and short-yardage TDs.

Oh, and of course, there was Ricky Williams, stepping up for me when the Wildcat was still in vogue.

Harbaugh is going to be hated by the fantasy football community. It seems to me he likes to keep the other teams off-guard with our starting personnel. One week it's McClain, next it's McGahee, then it's Rice. Then all three have a big game.

I have a feeling McGahee will be the star this week. Then everybody will talk about "McGahee's coming around".

the ravens are seriously pissing me off when it comes to mcgahee

he had a great week 7 and 8 and then didnt get jack**** for me in week 9. i really wish this team would just stick with a ******in starter.

Unfortunately we're doing a Running Back by Commitee, so I wouldn't count on any one back unless you don't have a choise or the others are injuryed.

pretty much i had a choice last week with benson who put up 20 for me that i left on the bench, i wish they wouldve gave a heads up to fantasy owners. i was thinking they didnt wanna hurt willis cause last time they played the browns he got his eye gouged.

but the NFL doesnt care for Fantasy just like Bush doesnt care for black people.

lol

i even had to pick up kenneth darby this week cause im scared mcgahee isnt going to get me any again. McGahee was the reason i lost last week. thats a fact. lol i got jones, johnson, mcgahee and benson.

Yeah, Harbaugh isnt making a friend in me when it comes to FF. After last weeks game, I dropped Heap and every Ravens RB from all my fantasy teams. Last week I started Willis and Leron, and then Rice gets the bulk of the carries, I give up.

Ive noticed FF is not something where you play favorites.... You just play to win, I had Ray Rice for a while back but dropped him when I found that I could pick up a few more consistent backs. I also dropped heap cause he wasnt getting me anywhere. The only thing I have left of the ravens is the defense, cause no matter what Harbaugh does with that its still the raven's D so I get fantasy points.

Homers never win Fantasy Football. And there's always at least one of them in every league. This year I have a Giants fan. He has Manning as his starting QB, Jacobs as his starting RB, Kevin Boss as starting TE and Steve Smith (WR Giants). He's lives and dies by the giants, and even though the Giants have one loss, he's in last place.

mcgahee is NOT a favorite of mine. i just think hes a quality back, jim needs to start him

[itscbm5042]

Ray Rice is a beast but was already taken in my league. I am soo happy today because someone actually dropped Reggie Bush and I grabbed him off WAIVERS! I know he has been hurt but he is set to return next week against ATL so that will really help me down the stretch...

Now I have Chris Johnson, Reggie Bush, and Brandon Jacobs. Awesome.

[ChargerFan17]

so much for rice being top FF pick up


mcgahee came in the clutch for me.

wish you woulda done it last week to tho.

[itscbm5042]

Bush isn't starting THIS week but comes back next week so I put him on my bench. I only gave up the Texans D for him so I'm thrilled. Side NOTE - Chris Johnson I hate you so much today.
