Baltimore RB...who has best stats at year end? (1 Viewer)

[destro]

Was just watching the presser on ESPN2, when asked "Who will be the starting running back on Thursday?" Harbaugh, without hesitation said "Bernard" but quickly followed it up with "and Forsett". He topped it off with "Lorenzo Talaiferro will get a lot of work too.". This really may be a situation to absolutely avoid, buy hey, Pierce's name was mentioned first so that's something I guess.

To me, this sounds like it's going to be a RBBC until one of them takes the job from the other two guys. If true, place your bet on the guy who you think is the most talented and you could get a handsome reward later in the season. Harbaugh hasn't been a big RBBC guy since he came to Baltimore, although that could just be due to the fact that he loved Rice so much. Still, I think the door is definitely open for one of them to earn the workhorse role in the next couple weeks and the runner up will get a few series a game.

Of course, if none of them really emerge, it could be straight 3-headed-monster hell, also...

Just trade for Bryce Brown.

I don't think it matters. Nobody here will put up anything approaching RB3 numbers.

Justin Forsett is currently T16 in NFL rushing so I guess you are wrong already.

Good information. This is how I would rank them then: Pierce, Forsett, and Taliaferro. Personally, I will avoid, as I think it will be RBBC and I am not convinced any of them are great backs.
