Baltimore Ravens RB Ray Rice said he has to be smart about not trying to do too much as he gets older. ‘Going into Year 6, you have to be smart,’ Rice said. ‘I know I have a lot of football left, but the name of the game is longevity for me now. I’ve proved I can be a Pro Bowl player and I still know I can go out there and make many more Pro Bowls. Part of the lesson you learn is being smart and realizing you can’t go out there and do it all on your own. For me, I’m in a great situation, I’ve a got a young back in Bernard Pierce and we can share the load. But I know when it’s a crucial situation, like a fourth down or a big third down, I go out there and make as many plays as a I can.’
