    Not to go back to this...

    But Bobby Rainey looked pretty good on that TD drive. He probably could have helped this season - assuming Harbaugh would have been willing to use him instead of Rice (doubtful).

    Now awaiting the barrage of criticism for crying over spilt milk...

    This. He didn't have much of a special teams role outside a depth returner. Made sense to keep ST guys over a 3rd string RB

    Happy for Rainey, and happy for the fact that some other NFL team is as INEPT at running the ball as we are!! I just marvel at how effectively TB was able to run the ball....what the Hell are we doing wrong?!?! Is our coaching staff that Inept, and/or do we just have a bunch of marshmallows playing the Oline?! You should be mighty embarrassed, Biscuit, for putting out a product like the Ravens O!

    I liked Rainey and wanted him to stay. But even. More than that, I questioned only 2 running backs

    Always liked Rainey because he always seemed to have a positive attitude and a lot of burst.

    Im happy for him.

    Did anybody see the actual holes he had to run through? I think even this rice weve been seeing as of late would have been able to make it through those. End of the day Rice is still better but the FO should look at Rainey's contract and production and learn to never pay a RB in a passing league. you can always find an adequate replacement (younger, fresher, hungrier) for a lot cheaper.

    Bobby Rainey would've been a good guy to have step in with Rice either injured or Alexnader-ing. At least he can explode through a (small) hole, break a tackle or two, and gain positive yardage.
