With Baltimore having wrapped up the AFC North title, Ravens RB Ray Rice is not expected to play today.

I'd say if anyone on the offense could afford to rest today it's Rice.

Re: Ray (Rice) not expected to play
I think I'm okay with it - Rice is too valuable to risk. That said, I still want the Ravens to go out and win the game for momentum's sake. Rest those who need it, but don't take it as a bye week. It rarely ever works.

I'm excited to see what BP does on a full game load and since Ant Allen is most likely the 2nd guy, to see how he does with more carries.

Re: Ray (Rice) not expected to play
We will probably see an air attack most of the day. Try to kick start the passing O on the road.

Re: Ray (Rice) not expected to play
Does kind've stink, this will be RR's lowest rushing yardage since his rookie year...oh well
The only disappointing thing about this was I had hoped we might try to get out there and see if we could extend the offensive rhythm we found against the Giants. That would help break two ?s going into the postseason (Can Joe produce on the road, and is Caldwell better than Cam?). Sounds like we're going to play it safe, try to let Joe build a small lead, then pull pieces off the field.
Sounds like a day I might be better off keeping the kids entertained and NOT watching..

“When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. That’s the Baltimore Raven way.” - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

Re: Ray (Rice) not expected to play
It kinda sucks that this game is being poo-pooed so badly. I have waited for this rematch all season. You'd think Ray Rice would be dying to play with his record against the Bengals. Oh well, I will be watching every snap.

Re: Ray (Rice) not expected to play
Agree. I hope this means they feel like they've worked out the offense enough to where they don't need this game to help continue the escape from the clutches of the Cam Era.
But I can't imagine that's the case. IMHO the team needs all the reps humanly possible as it adjusts to Caldwell. But I do understand the move.

@RussellStReport: Rumors swirling that Flacco will get significant time next to Ray Rice on the bench today in Cincy.

Re: Ray (Rice) not expected to play
I agree Cincy...I guess it doesn't have the dramatic playoff implications like some of the other games. But, it is a divisional game and it will be fun to watch our respective teams anyway! Congrats on your team making the playoffs...it was nice to see your guys knock the Squeelers out of contention this year. In fact, it was pretty friggin' sweet.
