Ravens' Rice ready to go

The Ravens' three-headed monster at running back could get some of its bite back Sunday with the return of rookie Ray Rice.

 

Rice had missed four consecutive games due to a bruised left shin and played sparingly in the Ravens' 13-10 win against the Tennessee Titans last Saturday. He could get a greater workload in the AFC championship game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

 

"I'm ready to go full speed," Rice said. "I was ready to play against Jacksonville, I suited up for Miami. Tennessee, I was ready to go, and I played a couple plays in the third quarter. I feel brand new again."

 

Rice's return could revitalize a running attack that seems to have lost a little steam. Pro Bowl fullback Le'Ron McClain sprained his right ankle against the Titans, and backup Willis McGahee has been battling injuries to his eye, ribs and ankle.

It's at least as important as Willie Parker being "fresh". I bet Rice has a bigger impact on the game than Willie... assuming Rice gets a number of plays his way.
