McGahee Trade?

What was up with McGahee not playing much at all today. I know Ray Rice had a great game but there were times when McGahee would have been helpful...ie Redzone during that first drive as well as spelling Ray Rice in the 2nd half a bit.

Were the Ravens holding McGahee back for a possible trade prior to the trade deadline? He won't be a Raven next year and his value should be high right now and we could get maybe a much needed receiver or d-back.

I just don't think we will go far with the current production at these positions (d-back, wide-out). We are getting tooled at these psoitions. While it is nice to have two feature backs, it is obvious we need help at these two spots. Weighing the value of keeping 2 feature backs along with Mcclain or adding either a solid receiver or even a solid nickel back, I think this team improves by trading McGahee.

Not with his ridiculous salary. Also I think it has been proved that rice is not an every down back unless we pass 75% of the time. He had 14 carries today...

This was just another case of Cam out thinking himself which he has done 2 weeks in a row now.

McGahee is not being traded, that is insane. It was the second week in a row of FAILED offensive game plans. No creativity, no "attack" mode. We had 1 big play, that was created by Rice, who turned a garbage dump off pass he should have been tackled for a 2 yard gain into an amazing play. This was the most frustrating game to watch I can remember.
