Re: Here is your issue with power running folks.
Not to say anyone is right or wrong, but I thought I saw Rice move the pile a few times to grab several extra yards on some carries.

Rice may not be tall, but he ain't little. He's 220 lbs. and strong as hell.

Re: Here is your issue with power running folks.
Weird thing is ProFootballReference has him at 195 lbs.

Maybe when he was a rookie, yeah, but he's heavier than that now.
Bernard Pierce is listed at 218, with Rice at 212, at least on the NFL's site, so apparently not much difference:

Re: Here is your issue with power running folks.
Reading comprehension:
LeachisBeast, you believe that the Ravens should return to a power running strategy on offense.
Self: Pierce is a better guy for that than Rice.
BigBob: if you want to go by a stat site, while only logging the gains from one game, out of fifteen, you are more than welcome. By the way, maybe Rice was more consistent this past game, because they didn't use him in a power running role. My point from the beginning."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector.

Re: Here is your issue with power running folks.
Well I think Pierce is best suited in the stretch/downhill zone scheme that the Texans run, which is what I'd prefer over the power run scheme. We don't have the players on the Oline that could run such a scheme right now though. We'd need a big athletic LT, Oher at guard, a more athletic center. Yanda and KO are great though.

Re: Here is your issue with power running folks.
There is a difference between not fully understanding/not getting the joke on a forum and not reading someone's comment instead of identifying "Flacco is not currently worth top 5 money" with me not wanting Flacco or thinking he sucks, which is what you probably think I think, which is far from the truth. I just think Flacco is still in the league of Jay Cutler and Matt Shaubb until proven otherwise, nothing wrong with that at all, both great QB's at what they do, but they aint worth crippling the cap over because they need a supporting cast.
