McCoy would impress me much more if he was even SLIGHTLY better at pass-BLOCKING. I can accept that his strength isn’t pass-CATCHING, but come on, do a better job of protecting your QB!!

When you have to pick between these two backs, you can’t lose. Both are excellent and in their prime. I’ll go with Shady because I love ability to torch teams late in the game with those long runs that just deflate the other team. But Rice runs with more power.

I live in Baltimore and everyone here believes that Ray Rice is the best running back in football. They haven’t even heard of Shady, which is funny because they are basically the same player, only McCoy is a year younger.

I wonder if the Eagles could persuade Ray Lewis to give them a little pre-game motivational speech on Sunday, since he’ll be around.

I’m not that easily impressed by Eagles Running Backs, Westbrook was good, but my all time favorite was Wilbert Montgomery, but this Shady kid is something special. It seems to me the Eagles really don’t understand this kids talent and potential. He is a tough Son of a Gun. Ray Rice compares to Shady, he’s also a tough talented running back from an Eastern School.

At the end of their careers I am going to bet McCoy last several more seasons…Rice reminds me of Westbrook – an incredible mini football player…sure he is bulkier than Westy, but not by much. He will start to break down in another season or two – McCoy is going to be dominant for at least another 5 years. Of course injuries are completely unpredictable – but in the end McCoy will go down as a greater back…call it the Emmett Short effect…

Rice is more like Emmitt Smith, steady productive reliable back. McCoy is more like Barry Sanders, always the potential for a big play but will lose yardage at times looking for that big play.
