Ah well, can't control other peoples poor decisions.

I think his tread was gone. They rode him hard in Rutgers

Honestly, I blame that trap blocking scheme (I think that's what it was) that Castillo implemented in 2013 more so than Rice hitting the age/mileage wall. Bernard Pierce, while not some great player, also saw his average drop from 4.9 in 2012 to 2.9 in 2013. That scheme was terrible. I can't remember a time I've seen so many untouched rushers in the backfield in both the running and passing game. Not having Birk also greatly hurt the unit

1st: Give to Ray
2nd: Give to Ray
3rd: Give to Ray or throw deep to Kenny Britt or Tiquan Underwood

That was the game plan.

I never saw one Rutgers game when Rice was there I'm mad now that I didn't.

It was terrible to watch but I think before him and Leonard they averaged 2 wins a year. I watched because I use to gamble a lot back then they would always be getting 20+ points. Hell I think the one time they played the U they were getting 40+ something like that

I honestly wouldn't even put Pitta on that list.

the poster was talking about the talent around joe. jacoby is a below average wr

I think they won the big east once when Rice was there. The qb Heart wasent that bad like bpr said he'd heave it to Britt / underwood a lot. You could mske decent money until the public caught up that Rutgers had improved

Playmakers on our team above NFL average in 2012. Ray Rice. Thats it. Adding Pitta, Torey or boldin is just because we love them because they were ravens. They were never above average talent while wearing purple.

Ok I'll give you Leach I guess. but a fullback bruh? Dont act live flacco is out there slinging it to AB or megatron like we pretend when we have Kamar Aiken as our #1
