Best RB in AFC

The AFC has superior RB's apposed to the NFC, so you got to think of who is the best? There are 6 major RB's that I feel are the strongest RB's.
6. Chris Johnson (Tennesse Titans) was a star in his rookie year which earned him the name CJ2K for his 2,000 YD's in his 1st year, but he then began to fall apart as he didn't want to sign a contract after the NFL Lockout causing him to have a lack of knowledge on the playbook causing him to be a dissapointment last year, so he needs to figure out how to rebound off of this bad year to be CJ2K again.
5. Reggie Bush (Miami Dolphins) was a breakout star last year. After being dropped by the Saints and picked up by the Dolphins last year, he seemed like there was no chance he was going to get a shot because he was the back-up behind Daniel Thomas, but he got a shot due to some early season injuries to Thomas which changed Bush from back-up to starter over Daniel Thomas.
4. Ryan Matthews (San Diego Chargers) was not a star, but he got it done. He is a great RB who was not been allowed to reach his full potential on the Chargers due to the time he had to share with Mike Tolbert. Now that Tolbert is gone, Matthews will be able to take over the field with his rushing and recieving skills to make the Chargers stronger. This will be a breakout year for Matthews, since he is now in charge.
3. Maurice Jones-Drew (Jacksonville Jaguars) is a decent RB, but he is only ranked this high for one main reason. The QB situation for the Jaguars. They are currently trapped in a QB slump, and it doesn't help to have the QB battle between Blaine Gabbert and Chad Henne in Jacksonville. This causes more drama in Jacksonville showing that they aren't ready for the playoffs even with this RB leading.
2. Arian Foster (Houston Texans) is a dude that can do almost anything. He can catch, he can run, but can he syay healthy. With his injuries last year in shows that he is not completely healthy, but you can tell he is still a huge factor due to the fact that the Texans made it to the 2nd round of the playoffs last year with the help off Arian Foster even with the season ending injury to Matt Schaub to bring in rookie T.J. Yates. Foster may be a big name, but his injuries keeps him out of #1.
1. Ray Rice (Baltimore Ravens) is the best AFC RB. He can break any tackle and has unlimited stamina. He can also run deep patterns better than any WR on the Ravens, and he has great hands. He can not be stopped! No defender nor coach has figured him out. I don't even think his own team knows how he does it! A player that you never know what's coming next and can't be stopped no matter what shows he is #1.
